A very important aspect of the Federation's services is the publishing of a quarterly newsletter called CUES! .

This is distributed to all member societies, as well as a wide range of individuals associated with theatre and just as importantly, the local press across Greater Manchester.

It keeps Amateur Theatre in touch with the world, but more importantly, the world in touch with Amateur Theatre.

It includes editorials, news, reviews, articles, advertisements ... basically anything that our members need to communicate to our readership.

Just as importantly, the Federation creates s a monthly publication in addition to the quarterly CUES! , which includes diary dates of all our member societies and groups productions and events.

The diary dates are stored on computer and provide an invaluable archive resource for members seeking help and advice from others who have staged specific productions. From trying to track down set suppliers to stand-in performers, these records can be a life-line to our members.
