Dramatic performances
Dramatic works (eg plays) are text based works and therefore not covered by the
school music licences.
⢠If a school or TAU wish to record a performance of a dramatic work, they would
need to seek permission from the copyright owner (usually the publisher).
⢠If the performances also involve the use of musical works and/or sound recordings
then the School Event Licence would apply in relation to the musical works and
sound recordings.
