Can I stream on Instagram, Facebook Live or YouTube? Do you have suggestions for other approved platforms?
Any platform is allowed as long as the stream can be protected in some way, with the use of password, access code or unlisted/private link. Use of non-protected platforms is expressly forbidden for any Dramatic Publishing title and is in direct violation of applicable copyright protections and laws.
Dramatic Publishing is not directly affiliated with any streaming platforms. Our customers have had success with platforms such as Zoom, Vimeo, ShowTix4U, On the Stage, and YouTube, among many others.
YouTube can be used as a platform ONLY IF the recording or livestream is uploaded as an unlisted link. This will allow the stream to only be viewed by those with the direct link to the stream.
Instagram and Facebook do not allow for the streams to be password protected, so they are not accepted options.
