FST undertakes strategic lobbying and advocacy on behalf of the sector to raise the profile of Scottish dance, opera and theatre, to encourage appropriate investment and to highlight and resolve issues pertaining to the capacity and development of the dance, opera and theatre sector and its infrastructure.  Recent activity in this area includes ongoing dialogue with Creative Scotland about its relationship with the sector, liaison with the Scottish Government and other agencies around a range of opportunities and issues within the sector, including the inclusion of Culture in the National Performance Framework. 

FST also facilitates a wide range of networking and information sharing events, including four members meetings a year, so that members are well informed and supported to develop artistic and management best practice.  This work is supported by an extensive programme of training, developmental events, and mentoring and bursary programmes across a range of management, technical and artistic disciplines.
