What is the general thumb rule when it come to the cost of the license? I've herd 10% of the gate receipt.
The cost of the license is set by the company that holds the royalties to the musical in question. Generally:

*They are more expensive than plays without music (dramas, comedies. etc.)
*They are contingent on the size of the house
*They are contingent on the length of the run
*They are usually non negotiable.

You'll have to contact the royalty company and see what they have to say...good luck!
