FAQs

How is Gitelman & Good Publishers different from other publishers?

We make it easy to find and license high-quality scripts for high school actors and audiences. You'll find "only the good stuff" in our catalog.

Choosing and working with a script is simple. You can preview every play in its entirety on our website. Plus, there's no need to purchase individual scripts; when you're ready to buy, just add your play to the cart and select the number of performances. You'll receive an instant PDF download.

Can I photocopy and email the scripts?

In short, yes. But please familiarize yourself with licensing information when you check out.

Can I cut or edit the plays?

All changes must be approved by the publisher before it is performed. Please contact us as info@gitelmangoodpublishers.com.

What information should be on the program or promotional materials?

Your program, as well as all promotional material for your production (except for t-shirts and buttons) must include the following information:

  1. The full name of the play or musical.
  2. The full name of the playwright(s), which must be at least half the size of the title.
  3. The following statement: “Produced by special arrangement with Gitelman & Good Publishers, Chicago”.

This information should also appear on any video you post online (e.g. YouTube).

Is your licensing model good for writers?

When we price a play, we multiply $10 by the number of cast and crew; this ensures a writer is accurately compensated by preventing underbuying a script and photocopying it. We pay writers market-value for both script royalties and performance royalties. Additionally, once a writer is a member of the GGP family, our editor works with them to develop new work for the catalog.
