From PDF to fully annotated calling script in three steps.
Create your project
Upload your PDF script or score. Cuelist sets up everything exactly how you want it.
Share in real time
Invite your team. Everyone sees every change the instant you make it, whether they are in the room or across the country.
Add your cues and annotations
Place cues anywhere. Number them automatically, layer everything by department, and annotate freely.
Features
Every piece of information you need to run your show, all in one place.
Built by people who make theater, designed for the way shows really run.
Add cues with ease
Drop cues onto the script, adjust their look and placement, automatically number them, and export a complete list with just a few clicks.
Paperless and portable
Your entire project lives in the cloud and runs right in your browser, so you can open it on any device and revise on the fly while cutting printing by hundreds—or even thousands—of pages per project.
Layers for every department
Your cues and notes live in your own layer, editable only by the people you allow. Show or hide anyone else's work while the whole team works in parallel.
Share in a click
Invite as many team members as you like. Users join instantly with no software installs and no file shuffling, and collaborators can view shared projects for free, whether or not they have a subscription.
Print and export when you need it
Going old-school for tech? Export a clean, correctly-sized PDF of your marked script for any page size, ready for the binder. You can also export cue lists and ETC Eos cue files with the click of a button.
Build a permanent archive
Come back years later to remount a show. Your projects are yours for good. Everything stays on our servers, and if your subscription ever lapses you keep view and print access on every project.

Testimonials
Loved by theatermakers worldwide.
Finally, an intuitive and paperless way to collaborate on cueing in theater that is appealing to designers like me… I used it on Broadway this spring, and it made everything simpler, clearer and faster for us.”
Cuelist allows me to stay more focused on the script, rather than a long spreadsheet of numbers… every member of the team can be working on the same page at the same time.”
It was great to see the cue placements just popping up as entered by the Sound Designer, the Projection Designer and the Stage Manager. It completely stopped all conversations about 'Where did you put that cue?'”
