    When we did it 10 years ago, we wrote to the agent listed on the inside cover.

    When we did her The Arabian Nights, we licensed it through Bret Adams Ltd. in New York.  The agent was ALexis Williams.  awilliams@bretadamsltd.net

    I seem to recall that the rights were rather expensive for a straight play, but they were nice about negotiating with us. They also gave us permission to cut the Myrrah myth since we weren't comfortable having an incest scene in a high school production.
