Try calling Lions Gate. I think they own the rights to it anyway.

: Dear whoever is reading this. I hope you will pass it on to Kevin Smith,
: because they're his mnovies and he should read this stuff and decide onhis
: own. But anyway. I have already written a coiple of times and have
: usually kept it short. But I never received an answer, so I thought I
: would write an dtell you a little about myself and my theater group, and
: perhaps I will get some sort of reaction. My name is Charlotte, I live in
: a small city in northern Germany called Bremen. (This is where you say,
: "never heard of it" and i say,"ever heard of Beck's Beer?" and you say"oh
: yeah", I say "that's where it's brewed, our only claim to fame", and you
: leave the discussion STILL without any real idea of where Bremen is, but
: you feel better, becuase you can identify it with something. We humans need
: that. Any how, I am american, and have chosen to leave the US, for various
: reasons, and am studying to be an english and history teacher. I have
: started my own theater group, because here in Bremen there is no english
: speaking theater, and there are alot of english speaking people. We have
: done four shows, so far and are trying to stick to comedy, because it goes
: over best ina climate where it rains all year!! Every year, I wrack my
: brains to think of the next piece. We have done God, and the Kathy and Mo
: Show, and Hitchhiker's Guide. But the first time I saw Dogma, my second
: thought (right after "this is the funniest and best criticical view of
: religion there has ever been") was I have to put this on stage. See there
: are very few people who know about your movies here inn Germany, at least
: in Bremen and there are several reasons why I'd like to do Dogma. It would
: help spread your name and films inthis area, although I know you are not
: dependent on little theater groups...... hmmm... I don't know. I guess I
: just wanted to ask. 've never done anything like this since I was in the
: seventh grade, when I wrote Johnny Depp a fan letter. I've never written
: another fan letter since, because I know they never really get to who they
: are supposed to get to. But this time it isn't a fan letter, so I thought
: I wold at least try. I am a fan don't get me wrong, a big one. Your films
: are truly unique, and as a Vonnegut and Robbins fan, how can one fail to
: live the cynical and cutting humor of your stuff! I know, you prbably get
: this shit all the itme, but I guess I thought i would try to appeal to your
: sense of starting out. I have this illusion that famous peope are just
: people. I lived in Sacramento for a very long time an dI know Cake, and
: Deftones and Korn, and they play here at huge festivals for gazillions of
: people, but to me, they're just people, two of whom failed calculus with
: me! You were starting out once too, and maybe you, unlike the deftones,
: have remained on the floor, with a small head, and stil have time for the
: little people. It would really help my group if we could do Dogma. I would
: adapt it for the stage, as I did Hitchhiker's, but I can only do it with
: your permission. I have done other shows, and not thought about rights,
: but you're different. i respect your work, and wanted to ask, and have
: permission. I hope I get. Thank you for listening, please answer, even if
: its no. If am allowed, I need to start the adapting soon. Thanks,
: Charlotte

: P.S. I posted this on the board too, just incase, cause i have no idea how
: these sites work!

:
: PPS, I just saw the hting about the rights, but does that count for theater
: self adaptions? And if so , can I talk to the oerson who has therights
: about it? Also, you should know that Schueller the word doesn't exist. The
: word Schueler means elementarts or highschool student, Silent Bob is
: STILLER Bob. I thought that since you don't speak german, you might like
: to understand what your hear and say!!! But I think it's funny that you
: put it in a movie.
