Members: You may now make payments directly through the SDC Member Portal.

You must be a Member in good standing to access the Member Portal. If you are not a Member in good standing, please use the SDC One-Time Payment option on the right as an alternative.

Initiation fees, dues, and assessments are ratified by the Membership. All dues for the calendar year are due and payable on January 1. Dues that are not received by April 1 are subject to a penalty fine for each quarter in which they have not been paid.

2025 DUES AND ASSESSMENTS

Full Members pay an initiation fee of $2,400 (effective 1/1/25) and annual dues of $240 (effective 1/1/17), plus an assessment of 3% on all fees and royalties earned under SDC contracts.

Associate Members pay an initiation fee of $375 (effective 1/1/24) and annual dues of $90 (effective 1/1/24).

HOW TO MAKE A PAYMENT

To make a one-time payment online for any Dues, Initiation Fees, and/or Assessments, refer to your invoice and visit the Member Portal. Your payment credit will immediately appear as “pending” until it is applied by the Finance Department to your outstanding charges.

You may also make a one-time payment by choosing the amount of your payment from the SDC One-Time Payment drop-down or using the Other Amount box at the right. Click on the Pay Now button. This will link you to our PayPal website for payment. NOTE: If using the drop-down or Other Amount box at the right, you do not need to log in to the SDC Member Portal nor the PayPal website. We will look at the contact information you provide to PayPal and your Member ID Number when applying your payment. If the name of the person making your payment does not match the name we have for you in our system, please contact SDC to alert us. It may take as many as 10 business days for this type of payment to be reflected in the Member Portal.

You may also pay by check or money order made out to Stage Directors and Choreographers Society. Mail to: SDC, 321 West 44th St., Suite 804, New York, NY 10036
