the implementation of the material. Also, for a modest fee, SirMuse can re-master any of the musical accompaniments to alter the key, should vocal range problems arise
in your production.
* Non-US customers PLEASE READ THIS: All stated prices reflect the fees for US customers. Additional charges will apply for international customers who wish to pay in a non-US currency or through a non-US bank. This includes international PayPal transactions (1% fee). PayPal will accept payment for stated US dollar amounts and make the monetary conversion from local currencies. If international customers choose not to use PayPal and wish to make payment through an EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer), they must cover all fees associated with that type of transaction. Please contact msirt@sirmuse.com to set up bank routing numbers, etc, or for more information on paying through an EFT. The licensor must receive a US dollar equivalent to the stated fees for all international purchases. Customers outside the continental US who need shipped copies of the perusal kit or wish to order the full production package should make a request by email to msirt@sirmuse.com as international transaction charges and overseas shipping arrangements may vary from country to country and will have to be worked out between parties. Upon request all US dollar fees can be invoiced for you by Sirmuse.
** The
shipping and materials charge is based on US postal rates. Additional charges will apply
for international orders and also for expedited shipping, if requested.
*** For international customers who wish to download and print out their script and score, please note that pdf files of the material formatted to the A4 (ISO 216) international paper size standard are available on the download sites. Hard-copy materials that are shipped overseas will be sized in the US Letter (8.5' X 11") paper format.
DELIVERY OPTIONS
All puchasers, upon receipt of payment (and completed license form if ordering the full production kit and license), will receive password access to the digital download sites, along with instructions for accessing the material. If hard copy materials are requested by parcel, those materials will be shipped to the payer's shipping address submitted with their PayPal transaction or received by email by USPS Priority mail. Additional costs will be incurred for shipping, handling and materials as described above. International customers who wish a shipped parcel sent to them will be presented with 3 USPS shipping options with respective costs, details of which will be outlined by email communication.
Here is a detailed comparison of delivery methods, showing the advantages and disadvantages of only downloading vs. having the materials shipped to you:

Alright, already!
So, you've gotten this far, have you? A lot of detailed information? Perhaps, but here's how Lewis Carroll 'simplifies' a complicated idea (or complicates a simple idea - you decide)
(excerpt from the script):
Duchess: ... Now, here, Mary Ann, is the baby. Take good care of it and...
Alice: But I’m not Mary Ann!
Duchess: Oh, I quite understand. But remember
the old saying (directing focus to the cook):
Cook (clearing throat & pontificating): ...
“Ahem...Be what you would seem to be!” Or, if you’d like
it put more SIMPLY: “Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise
than what it might appear to others that what you were, or might have
been, was not otherwise than: what you had been would have appeared to
them to be ... otherwise!” (beat)
Alice: I don’t know what you're talking
about.
Duchess: You don’t know much and that’s
a fact. |
