							| Copyright advice 
 |  
							| Hi guys, I am working on my little website. I would like to upload a play with resources. The problem is, I adapted this play from another. I simplified it, made some changes and set it in a different country. I �d love to upload it, as I spent a lot of time on the resources. I can �t remember the original author. If I explain this, do you think I �m entitled to put that play on my website? Does anyone know?   Lynne |  23 Apr 2013

							| Cunlife This is really a tricky thing.
 
 If you �re planning on earning money on this play, and the play is copyrighted, you need to get permission from the publishers.
 
 If it is just something you want to share with others for free, I �m not quite sure how that works.
 Check for copyrights on the internet - perhaps you might find the answer there and find out the name of the original play.
 It could be that the author is long gone and the play if free to use.
 
 good luck

							| Thanks, Libertybelle. I think the best I can do is try to find the author. |  23 Apr 2013
