Rights to produce St. John in Exile

Can anyone help me obtain the rights to produce St. John in Exile as an outdoor drama in Mansfield, Ohio.
We have a 1400 seat amphitheatre built several years ago which is now dark.
St. John in Exile would be a perfect production to present this summer.
We are a church with an outreach called Biblewalk, (www.biblewalk.us) which presents God's word in wax figures with narrations and music. This ministry has been in existence 22 years, and our parent church has been right here in the same town for 40 years.
In other words, our integrity is impeccable. With the help of the Lord, we would like the right to produce your play to the Glory of Jesus Christ.
Mr. Berrigan? Mr. Jones? Can you help us to share more of God's Love using your marvelous witnessing tool.
Thank you.

So Maggie, were ever able to secure the rights, and did you perform it?

I just watched it tonight, at bible study, and it's awesome. Dean Jones does an amazing job.

No, I never heard from anyone on this. Perhaps the rights can be obtained in New York, where I think there is a company that collects royalties for stage plays and distributes to the author. Anyone know about this? The rights may have reverted to the estate of Dean Jones. What a great performance! They'll be asking him to perform this in heaven!
