Performing rights are the right to perform music, literary works (plays, poems, etc.) in public. It is part of copyright law and demands payment to the creator (composer, lyricist, choreographer, playwright, poet, etc.). In the case of published work, the publisher may share in the remuneration.
In South Africa such rights are handled by the Southern African Music Rights Organisation (SAMRO) and the Dramatic, Artistic and Literary Rights Organisation (DALRO).
