DG Glossary: Commission Fee
A Commission Fee pays a dramatist to create or adapt a new work. Commissions may be paid by non-profit theaters in order to establish a relationship with a particular author, or to produce a play on a particular subject or theme. Commissions are also paid by commercial producers who have licensed an underlying work that needs to be adapted to the stage.
