PORTLAND, Maine ?Maine State Music Theatres lawsuit filed against a New Jersey high school and <a href=Link cup kaufen</a> a nearby theater company over the rental last year of costumes for the musical Monty Pythons Spamalot was moved Thursday to U.S. District Court. The Brunswick-based summer <a href=Link polska</a> theater company, which includes a division that rents costumes and props for frequently performed musicals, originally filed the lawsuit in Cumberland County Superior Court in February. Maine State Music Theatre, or MSMT, sued Edison High School in Edison, N.J., Nicholas Kaminski of Edison, N.J., and the Algonquin Arts Theatre in Manasquan, N.J., alleging the Brunswick theater is owed nearly $41,000 for missing items and those damaged beyond repair, nearly $4,000 in dry cleaning fees, $15,000 in rental fees and $151,695 in late charges.The costume package, which includes a full set of original costumes from the London production of the show, were rented to Edison High School for $10,000, rather than the usual $15,000, in February 2013 by Kaminski, according to the complaint. Kaminski allegedly lent the costume package to the <a href=Link germany</a> Algonquin without permission from MSMT.Attorneys for the Algonquin were able to move the case to federal court because the theater company is located outside of Maine.The high school production ran from March 13 to 23, the complaint said. Halfway through the run of that show, Kaminski allegedly asked MSMT whether the Algonquin could use the costume package for its show, which ran April 12-2 |
