Many shows require a photographer for their publicity material and also to photograph the show itself for archival purposes. Video recordings, which can be transferred to DVD to sell as memorabilia or at a profit, are also quite popular. Audio-only recording services also exist, for soundtrack CDs and "radio play" formats.

Needless to say that you must have the consent of your show's copyright holders to photograph or video-record it, otherwise you may get into legal hot water. You should also speak to the venue well in advance - if you turn up on the night and expect to record the show then you are liable to be thrown out by the Duty Manager!
