Music in revues and cabarets
Music is a necessary ingredient of revues and cabarets. STIM offers a music licence that allows music to be used during the different numbers.
You need a music licence from STIM when using copyright protected music in a revue or cabaret. The licence gives you permission to use music in the performance's numbers and during intervals.
For further information and to obatain a license, please contact our Customer Service.
Note that the licence is not valid for music that is of decisive importance for the plot or that moves the plot forward. A special licence from the author or the author's publishing company is needed for that type of music use.
