If the title is “restricted”, yes we still encourage you to apply as approvals are possible. That said, approvals are not guaranteed; we suggest simultaneously pursuing other options so that you are not left without a show to fill your season. Contact your licensing representative for suggestions.
Simply stated, “restricted” means the play may be unavailable for you to produce. There are many possible reasons for this: a West End show, a national tour, or you may be located in a area in which rights are currently being withheld for a local professional production.
