Copyrights are designed to protect the ownership of a musical. When composers, lyricists and bookwriters create a musical, they usually obtain copyrights through the government to make sure their ideas remain their property. Therefore, when a group would like to mount a production of a musical, that group needs to get permission from the authors who own it. This is called obtaining a license. Until now, anyone in Asia who wanted to produce a musical had to find the copyright owners in America and Europe, or apply through those owners' agents. Often, such correspondence was difficult, time-consuming and expensive work. But not anymore. IMI helps you get a license easily and quickly - so you can concentrate on creating a successful production.
