Transpositions

I'm confused about the time it takes to receive a transposition on demand song.... On one bullet point, it says 3 -4 weeks, but in small print underneath that, it says 10 -15 days. Could you clarify the exact time?

Hairspray Jr. casting question

My school is in an area without a lot of ethnic diversity. I'm wondering if there is a possibility to classify a group, not racially, but in some other way to make it work for our community? Please let me know any ideas. Thank you.

Peter Pan Jr. vs. Disney's Peter Pan Jr.

What are the major differences between these two Junior versions? Is the Peter Pan more modern? My school is concerned about the depiction of the Indians in this story. Does the new version eliminate these characters or treat them in a more culturally sensitive way?

Show costs?

Sirs, We are exploring the possibility of performing Peter Pan Junior this coming Spring. The tentative plans are to hold two performances on Friday and Saturday, May 12th and 13, 2017, and then again on Friday and Saturday, May 19th and 20th, 2017. Four shows in total. I was wondering what our cost to get the license to do this would be so we can budget accordingly. Regards, John Downing jdowning@hrrsjda.org

What resources come with a non-jr. show? What liberties do directors have when it comes to the script?

I'm a student who is directing a musical for my CAPSTONE project, and was wondering what resources come with a normal length show. I don't have an orchestra at my disposal, so cds with the music would be helpful but I'm not sure if that is just a jr. thing. Also, when it comes to the jr. version vs. the full version, are we allowed to either cut down a few songs from a full version (for appropriateness/talent ability) or add a few lines to a jr. version (to tell important aspects of the story that were cut)?
