Performing rights are the right to perform music, literary works (plays, poems, etc.) in public. It is part of copyright law and demands payment (royalties) to the creator (composer, lyricist, choreographer, playwright, poet, etc.). In the case of published work, the publisher may share in the royalties paid for performances, according to the contractual agreement between creator and publisher.

In South Africa such rights are handled by two organizations, the Southern African Music Rights Organisation (SAMRO) and the Dramatic, Artistic and Literary Rights Organisation (DALRO).
