re: Illegal Wicked productions

I do't think people are flipping out because some 8 year olds are singing a couple of the songs with their choir, it's the people who are doing illegal productions of it.

It is a copyright infringment, plain and simple.

And I STRONGLY suggest that if anyone is involved with an illegal production, that they bring it up with their director andpoint out the fact that they are breaking the law. It's stealing folks, just like buying a pirated DVD in Times Square.

I won't even start on the topic of, not only productions that are illegal, but one's that are completely re-writte by the director. That's also a NO-NO

re: Illegal Wicked productions

I probably shouldn't be antagonizing people either. This topic just sets people's hearts aflutter with righteous indignation.

I'm so frightened that everyone who posts here will yell at me. I think maybe I should try and stop. Lylas!

re: Illegal Wicked productions

(Sorry, I'm rewriting this. I accidently cleared this message when i hit edit message. i'm new to Broadway World. Basically, I had mentioned my friends were interested in doing Wicked for fun and just show friends or family. I wasn't gonna be in it. I thought it was illegal so thats why i posted this reply; To ask if they were breaking some law.)

Specific upcoming Wicked production:
My high school show choir is doing "Hilights from Wicked" for the show next year. My choir teacher bought the sheet music and everything, and it's completely legal as far as I know.
I know this groc'ry clerk...

re: Illegal Wicked productions

under copyright law, as long as u dont charge admission, and as long as u only invite selected people, its called a "home production" and its completely legal :)

re: Illegal Wicked productions

(had to delete it) How do you get the rights to a show?

re: Illegal Wicked productions

The rights are released when the show closes. RIGHT?

re: Illegal Wicked productions

This IS a joke, right?

Someone is "doing WICKED" for family and friends? Where? In their living room?

It doesn't matter if you are charging admission or not. The show isn't available. Where did these people get the script? The complete score? Or are they really just singing some of the songs from Wicked?


THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A "HOME" PRODUCTION!!!

re: Illegal Wicked productions

Ok to anwser your question:
Some of my friends wanted to "do wicked". I thought it was a bad idea. That's why I asked. I talked to them about it, and they decided not to. You're right, it does sound stupid. I mean, I'm a big fan, but I wouldn't do that. They're NOT doing it and they were only gonna sing some of the songs. Ok?

re: Illegal Wicked productions

This is gettin really stupid. Those people I know aren't doing the show. I talked to them and it turns out they were only doin a short version of it. Do we have to keep bringing it up? They're NOT doing it. Ive said it loads of times already! And to be honest, they probably would have never gotten around to it! It sounds so stupid to "act out Wicked"

re: Illegal Wicked productions

I had to take my messages off for a certain reason which isn't important. As I've stated over and over, My friends would never get around to do the show and as it turns out: they just enjoyed some of the songs (someone had ASKED me about finding the script and I said I didn't know because I had ONLY seen the show). I made the mistake and assumed they were putting it on. My apologies to Jon, Thenardier,Derek, and to whoever else I bothered. My friends were just talking about an idea of doing the show but it was I who made the mistake. I'm sorry for everyone who responded to my question. IT WAS ALL A BIG MISUNDERSTANDING!!!
