No billing shall appear in type larger or more prominent than the billing to the Authors, except for the title of the Play; provided, however, that Authors’ and Stroman’s billing need not be accorded on marquees and need not be accorded in connection with any press release relating solely to the star(s) of the Play, or in ABC or teaser ads, or in radio or television ads, or in print ads of less than one-quarter page in which only the stars above the title, the title of the Play and the name of the theatre appear.  Billing for the Authors and Susan Stroman will in any event be no less favorable than that accorded to any author by the same theatre (i.e., size, marquee billing, etc.) in the same season as it presents the Play.
