CHAIII'S REPORT During December 2023, and at our hugely successful Christmas show, Peter Pan, the Hall for Cornwall team of staff, trustees and volunteers were thrilled to welcome the S00.OOOth audience memberto walk through the doors of our Cornwall Playhouse auditorium. Milestones like this one are a very welcome reminder of how the transformation of our venue has brought enthusiastic theatregoers, many returning regularly throughout theyear. to watch our diversely curated programme of shows. as we describe in our annual report. That achievement of a loyal and engaged audience of ticket-buyers IS just one facet of our cuItLJral partnerships both within our community and across our local and national industry sector. In our venue,. it's also visible in our 200-strong bank ol volunteers,. among cultural organisations, that sense of partnership is embedded In our relationships with our Associate Artists, with nationally recogni5ed companies such as the Royal Shakespeare Company. Rambert Dance. and the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, as well as through our anchor partnership with Falmouth University.. Such partnerships have added value to the experience ol visiting Hfc, as with the BSO'5 dementia-friendly'Tea & Cake Concert.. which provided an afternoon of chatting, singing and movement in a totally relaxed manner. They expand the ambition5 and vi510n of our youth group participants In workshops with the RSC and Rambert, describing to our yOLJng people the opportunities and routes to careers within dance and theatre. For emerging artists and playwrights. again the investment ol the RSC within Cornwall. via their lacilitsting of HIC'S work. has been transformational in encouraging ambition5. At'speed dating sessions between Hfc. our sector artists. and Falmouth University participants, contacts have been forged and projects kickstarled. These valued associations are born out of the investments made by public bodies and philanthropic donators in our own redevelopment project. and I wholeheartedly commend the way that these affiliations have organically grown. Peter Pan was a150 a financial milestone lor Cornwall Playhouse Production5 as a producing house. delivering the highest Christmas show ticket revenues and audience footfall ever seen at Hfc, something to continually build on for the future. Our production was led with determination and vision by our in-house producer. Kirsty Cotton. the bedrock of recent Hfc Christmas shows. We. and the whole creative sector who benefited so much from her support and dedication. were devostaled to lose this champion of culture alter a short illness this year. Her immense legacy at HIC. and for the many. many art15t5 she nurtured and encouraged. will continue to have a strong impact over the years to come. The year lo the end of March 2024, as described In these accounts. has seen the conclusion of negotiations with our capital project main contractor and has been a pivotal year in the success of our reopening Hfc looks to the future with our customary grit and gusto, confident in our strategy and vision lo build on our achievements.

A full suite of blockbusters and quality work, alongside known lavourites and new visiting companies shows industry confidence in travelling thi5 far west, and we see no lessening of the passion ol Cornish audiences for live cultural entertainment. We will continue lo designate free reserves to our Sinking Fund. ensuring that maintenance issues which arise in the lulure can be addressed in a timely manner while still setting aside funds that will future proof our beloved building for the next generations of Iheatregoeis. The complexities and challenge5 of maintaining and continuously improving a Grade Il. building is not underestimated and the clesignating of funds to this is 3 necessity. Our Community Club will continue post-Levelling-Up fumding. with a mix ol donated and charitable funds deployed for this on-going purpose. We will design this new iteration ol the club during the 2024-25 year. We will extend beyond our Cornwall Playhouse ProductlOn5 Christmas Show in Èrms ol creating our own work by establishing a commissioning fund that can both underpin our own ambitions to produce more in-house. but enable us to partner with other companies to support the creation of touring work in drama and dance. Our bi-monthly programme reforecasting sessions, a vital cog in our budgeting and latest thinking forecasts processes will be augmented with conceptual, fulure-gaz1ng. programming sessions that take us beyond the already known and scheduled shows and instead I ook out into the medium term to continually ieinvent who we want lo be and what we aspire lo present.

STRATEGIC REPORT PIIINCIVAL RISKS AND UNCEHTAINTIES The charity maintalns a Risk Register that is reviewed by theAudit, Rtsk & Finance Committee and included as an agenda item for each Board of Trustees meeting. As the final contract sum for the capital redevelopment is concluded. this removes the current largest. and only'red., risk from our 2023-24 Risk Register. The charity budgets for future year's incomes and expenditures are based on prudent and detailed forecasts and approved by the Board of Trustees with any significant risks highlighted. In the 2024-25 budget setting, the following particular risks were identified". We continue lo be aware of the pressures on local and central government funding of cultural organisations, with high profile reductions and cancellations ol local council s commitments to culture I Irants being well-publicised across England. Our continuing fundings from Arts Council England and Cornwall Council as part of both organisations. four-year funding cycles are noted in this context. Risk that interest rates fall in the period l April 2024 to 31 March 2025, leading to lower Interest revenue on our cash balances than budgeted. Risk that the programme of stage activities with ils associated ticket Income deal retention and ancillary food and beverage sales does not materialise to the level budgeted. Risk that our Christmas Show does not achieve the levels ol sales experienced for our most recent production. or that costs increase beyond the budgeted expenditure estimates. Going Concern The closing out ol the capital redevelopment project and the subsequent negotiations with the main contractor around the final contract sum have been assessed by the trustees as part of the going concern consideration. Though the recognising of future settlement payments as a liability in the 2023-24 account has caused our free reserves fund balance lo become a negative value. the trustees have viewed the cash flow lorecasl of the settlement. the current and next year surpluses delivered and projected, and other reasonable financial mitigations including the available revolving loan and have assessed that the charity has the ability lo settle contractor stage payments as they fall due without recourse to further financial support. The spread ol risk across the work that we present means that no one visiting production can make or break a financial year or leave the theatre at financial risk. Guarantees for shows, where agreed. are determined by our experienced Senior Leadership Team, led by OLJr CEO & Creative Director. and. at highest levels. approved by industry experts among our board of trustees. The Trust's Health and Safety policy was updated foi the venue reupening. in consultation with specialists RB Health & Safely Solutions Ltd. and risks in Health and Safely are a standing item on our Trustee board meeting agendas where the subject 15 reviewed in detail.

Our audit procedures were designed to respond lo risks ol material mis5tatemenl in the financial Statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from an error. a5 fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, lor example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial Statements. the less likely we would become aware of it.
