FAQ
What is Kaikana and how does it work? + −
Kaikana Musicals creates original children’s musicals for schools, academies, theatre programs, camps, cultural entities, and organizations.
When you purchase a musical, you receive the digital materials needed to prepare and perform the show: script, songs, backing tracks, scores, production resources, and other available materials for that title.
The purchase also includes the license option selected during checkout, so your organization can stage the musical under the appropriate conditions.
Who can buy a Kaikana musical? + −
Kaikana Musicals sells licenses to schools, academies, theatre schools, camps, cultural entities, theatre companies, and authorized organizations.
Purchases must be made on behalf of an institution or authorized organization, not as a private individual.
What is included with the purchase of a musical? + −
Each musical includes the digital musical materials for that title, such as the script, songs, backing tracks, scores, production resources, and available support materials.
The exact contents may vary depending on the musical, but the purchase always gives your organization access to the digital materials connected to that show.
What is the standard educational license? + −
The standard educational license is included in the price of the musical.
It is designed for schools, accredited educational centers, academies, school theatre programs, and cultural camps. It allows the organization to perform the purchased musical within the educational context for one year from the selected license start date.
There is no extra fee for multiple educational performances during that one-year period.
What is the professional / cultural license? + −
The professional / cultural license is for theatre companies, cultural entities, community theatres, private academies, organizations, or productions outside the standard educational context.
This license is an add-on to the price of the musical materials. The musical materials are purchased normally, and the professional / cultural license adds $100 per authorized performance.
For example: if the musical costs $189 and you select 3 professional performances, the total is $189 + $300 = $489.
Can professional or cultural productions sell tickets? + −
Yes. The professional / cultural license allows performances outside the standard educational context and may include ticket sales.
The number of professional performances must be selected during checkout so the corresponding license supplement can be calculated.
Can schools sell tickets? + −
Yes, schools and educational organizations may sell tickets when the purpose is to cover production costs, support the educational activity, or raise funds for the institution.
For commercial productions outside the standard educational context, the professional / cultural license must be selected.
When does my license begin? + −
During checkout, you will be asked to choose the license start date.
For the standard educational license, the one-year period begins on the date you select.
For professional / cultural licenses, the license applies to the number of authorized performances selected during checkout.

Can I make copies of the script and materials? + −

The materials may not be resold, redistributed, or presented as a new original work.
Can I buy individual parts instead of the full package? + −
Not at the moment. Kaikana musicals are sold as complete digital packages so that each organization has everything needed to prepare and stage the show properly.
Can I get a refund after purchasing? + −
