Amateur Rights Agreement Form

Please read our Policies and Procedures before filling out this Agreement Form.

If you have previously completed a script submission form through PGC’s Play Distribution Program to sell your work through the Canadian Play Outlet, completing this form may not be necessary (unless the information submitted in the earlier form has changed). Please contact orders@playwrightsguild.ca if you are unsure.

  • Playwrights who wish PGC to handle the amateur rights for ALL of their plays without exception may enter "All Plays" in this section.
  • Please provide any information that PGC staff or a producer may need to know about this play.
  • If you require PGC to split the royalties amongst all co-creators and pay each person separately, we will need to ask each person for their banking information, address, phone number, and HST/GST#. Payees that are not full members of PGC will be charged a higher Commission Fee.
    PGC will request either a flat rate or a percentage of the box office as is appropriate on a case by case basis. Your royalties are paid to you once the production closes and the company has fully paid for the rights. You will not receive your royalties in instalments.
