Author! Author?(FROM THE MANAGING DIRECTOR)(copyright issues)
American Theatre, April, 2006 by Channick, Joan

Legal issues regarding the authorship of theatrical works have received considerable attention in recent years, and the scheduled trial in April of a new case regarding a director's allegation of copyright infringement has reopened the discussion.
I'd like to try to clarify the legal issues, to acknowledge the emotional issues these questions provoke and to suggest a way through it all. Although I'll focus here on stage direction, a fuller version of this article, on TCG's website, www.tcg.org, also addresses joint works and works made for hire.
