A Few Things to Clarify
If you don’t own the rights to the video/performance, you do not have the right to show the video for entertainment purposes outside of “home use.”
You may only show a video in the classroom for curricular purposes – the video would need to be used with directed instruction and involve instructional questioning.
Further Clarification
Even if you use a video distribution system in your school, only the teachers whose curriculum pertains to the video should watch the video simultaneously.
It is permissible to use portions of video (play a segment, remove the video, play another segment from another tape).
Summary of Fair Use for Audiovisual Materials

1. Face-to-face teaching
2. Presented by teachers or students
3. In a classroom or similar setting of a nonprofit educational institution
4. With a legal copy of the work
