It will revive happy memories for many years to come as well as being a tool of regular immediate use, whether for booking tickets , - giving details of 200 venues - , or guiding companies to those who have recent experience relevant to productions which they are about to tackle. The book is an inspiring record of Greater Manchester's wide-ranging theatrical achievements but a foreword by Lawrence Till, Artistic Director at the Bolton Octagon until last summer, also tells of the enormous difficulties which these face. The book is available though any bookshop or direct, post free, from the publisher: FREEPOST MR 9209, MANCHESTER M14 7DJ. If any reader finds their achievements last year have been omitted, they can make sure this does not happen again by sending copies of their programmes to the same address for next year's edition. |
