## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The Common Players is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 19 December 1996 and registered as a charity on 20 March 1997. 

The governing document is the Memorandum and Articles of Association. 

The trustees for the purpose of charity law are also directors of the company.  Under the Articles of Association one third of the trustees retire from office at each Annual General Meeting at which they are eligible for re-election. 

## **Trustee induction and Training**

-The obligations of Trustee Board members as contained in the document ‘The Common Players – Trustee Board Responsibilities’ 

-The main documents which set out the operational framework for the charity, including the Memorandum and Articles. 

-The current financial position as set out in the latest published accounts. 

-Future plans and objectives 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **Purposes of the charity** 

To advance education for public benefit by the promotion of the arts, in particular but not exclusively, the art of drama. 

## **Company overview** 

The Common Players was formed in 1989, setting out then to create accessible theatre and tour it outside, around the village greens of Devon during the summer months. 

The intention was to tell stories that involved audiences on different levels so that there was something for everyone to enjoy, no matter their age or experience of theatre. 

Since 1996, and when charitable incorporated, the company has developed numerous projects designed to engage wideranging rural communities in live performance. 

These strands include a mix of participative activities, educational projects, semi-professional community projects and professional touring presentations. The company now also works in towns and larger centres as projects dictate. 

Over 40 indoor and outdoor professional presentations have been created. These have variously involved commissioning writers or creative teams to respond to themes of rural and human interest, creating productions and then often touring them to up to 50 community venues such as fields, halls and community centres on a single tour 

Skill-sharing and participatory work has taken numerous forms.  These include summer youth theatre projects, workshops for amateur companies keen on building performance skills, collaborations with communities to develop celebratory guided walks and community play development. 

## **Partnerships and Projects** 

Common Players has enjoyed positive relationships with a number of creative stakeholders. We now work on a project by project basis with other local and regional organisations, collaborating on mutually purposeful projects. Partners have included **Exeter Northcott Theatre, Exeter Bikeshed Theatre, Devon Arts in Schools Initiative, Exmoor National Park, Prom Prom Productions, The National Trust, Cygnet Theatre, East Devon Museums** and **Devon Libraries.**

## **Trustees & Director's Report (continued)** 

## **For the year ended 31st March 2022** 

_Here follows a summary of activity in the financial year ended 31st March 2022, followed by more detail of activity over previous years._ 

## **Activity 2021-2022** 

This year, beginning in April saw the UK coming out of a second period of lockdown to protect from Covid-19. Through the previous winter with so much uncertainty over the forthcoming year we had determined that a focus for Common Players would be to create and tour a new outdoor work to communities and their spaces over the next summer. We felt that enclosing an audience in our new Lifeboat Theatre would not yet be feasible. 

We also believed that people sought a context for gathering together in a relatively safe space. We saw theatre as the medium and we hoped that Covid regulations for gathering would be sufficiently relaxed by the time we got to summer. Our winter research and development time had discovered a strong appetite for this amongst our community promoters and together with a local food charity, www.catch77.org.uk we developed a plan to create **The Tuck Inn,** a touring performance and community feasting event based on the robin hood story. Our plan submitted to the Arts Council for support demonstrated how we would  manage the Covidsaftey of a 30 venue tour aas well as engaging an open-to-all local event. 

Our application was approved in June and propelled us into a busy and creative time, with a tour beginning in July and ending in September. 

> A separate, externally commissioned eveluation document chronicles the many successes of this project. It is available here **Trustees & Director's Report (continued)** https://www.common-players.org.uk/cp-the-present A number of achievements are identified including the quality of the artwork, **For the year ended 31st March 2022** the engagement of two young apprentices, the support gained through micro-grants from very local organisations, the re-vivication of our volunteer promoter network, the incorporation of local performance activity around our visit, and the successful collaboration with a food charity to provide a self-contained touring event incorporating food and drink. 

This positive evaluation encouraged Common Players to consider a similar event for the following year. As autumn turned to winter and fears of Covid rose again we decided it prudent to once again delay the development of The Lifeboat Theatre project. The year ended with a plan to adapt **Alice in Wonderland** into an outdoor touring performance, starting earlier in the year to co-incide with Queen Elizabeths' Jubilee celebrations. "The Queen" would tour to Devon communities to enjoy a tea party. We were successful with a minor bid to the Arts Council to undertake the foundation work for this in November and December and by January we had a detailed plan, incorporating apprentices once again, which we submitted for support. 

During the year Common Players continued to make equipment available to small local groups for their creative endeavours. 

## **Activity before 2021** 

Examples of partnership projects include _**Keep Off The Path**_ which was a national 3-year touring environmental site-specific collaboration with **The National Trust.** With **Devon Arts In Schools Initiative** we created _**Bloody Ambition**_ **,** an education programme inspiring teachers and pupils to wrestle practically with Shakespeare’s _**Macbeth**_ . In 2013, with **Exeter Northcott** we directed and produced a regional outdoor large-scale touring production of _**Jerusalem**_ by Jez Butterworth. This was critically acclaimed and featured a unique blend of amateur and professional artists and support workers working together. A detailed evaluation of this project is accessible on our website. 

We also explore other aspects of the region's rural culture through performance.   An example of this is _**Cider with Roadies**_ , which since 2006 has found different ways of creating theatrical and cultural events around the focus of a commissioned and practical sculpted apple press _,_ _**Pomona**_ .  We have collaborated with **Prom Prom productions** to create _**The Devon Apple Fair**_ , a day of apple related activities and performances touring the region. 

In over 33 years of creating varied activity we have developed a significant network of volunteer promoters in many rural communities who work with us on promoting and supporting activites,connecting our work with people on the ground, who are not necessarily regular consumers of culture. We are proud to claim that we have successfully animated arts activity in rural communities not simply through our own work, but through sharing skills and enthusiasm with arts enthusiasts who go on to promote other activities in their locality.

## **Uncommon Players** 

In 2011 we formed the **Uncommon Players.** We began this loose ensemble to address two identified needs: performances of established plays are difficult for audiences to see in our region and at the same time we recognise that there is an untapped pool of  talented actors and theatre artists in the area.  With these factors combined we began to experiment with economically viable ways of producing high quality theatre using local volunteer performers guided by our professional core.  The first production, **Speaking in Tongues** in 2011 was produced in collaboration with **Exeter Northcott Theatre** , following a series of skill sharing workshops at **Exeter College** . 

Alan Bennett’s **Talking Heads** and Samuel Beckett's **Endgame** in collaboration with **Exeter Bikeshed theatre** have followed. Other Uncommon Players  Productions and tours of productions include **Educating Rita** and **The Browning Version** in collaboration with **Cygnet Theatre, Exeter.** 

## **International Links** 

From 2015-2018 we evolved an international partnership between the Mid Devon Town of **Crediton** and it's German twin town Fulda to commemorate the 100th anniversary of The Great War. This project culminated in **Echoes of Wartime** an original and professional work combining artists from both locations performing in both languages. From research into the real stories of the people in the two towns during the war period, we worked with **Theatre Mittendrin** to  create a structure and devise content for a bi-lingual and musical work, which told the stories of both communities during the time of shared conflict. Financial support was forthcoming from Arts Council England, Heritage Lottery Fund and the councils in Fulda and Crediton. A group of young people from each community were incorporated into the performances which took place  in large community venues. 

Living descendents of the characters that we featured were contacted through the research phases and invited to performances.  Their attendance and postive reactions in both countries gave significant meaning to the event for the people living in both locations today and local media gave the initiative significant coverage.  For those unable to attend a live performance, we created an adaptation for podcast which remains downloadable from iTunes. 

## **The Lifeboat Theatre** 

In September 2019 we presented a pilot run of performances of **The Ancient Mariner** in our **Lifeboat Theatre** . Since 2014 we had been preparing our salvaged commercvial life-saving boat, and preparing a performance which would take place on board. The performance combines the narrative of Coleridges's Ancient Mariner with the theme of plastic pollution in the sea and is designed to work on beaches and in harbours for people who are not regular theatregoers. We secured the services of actor associates  David Sterne (RSC, National Theatre and Pirates of the Carribbean) and Ben Tallamy ( Four of Swords and Wandering Tiger Theatre) to perform in the devised event. 

September of 2019 saw us prove the logistics of sailing the vessel to a mooring location, setting up for performances at low tide, welcoming an audience to the beach and presenting them with the experience of the performance both on the beach and inside the boat. We developed an embryonic website www.thelifeboattheatre.org.uk. 

Audience responses were tremendously positive towards the performance over the five days of the pilot; and we learned more about the operational requirements of the activity as a whole. All this resulted in detailed bids for further support for a substantial tour in summer 2020 which were submitted to the Arts Council and other Trust Funders in December 2019. 

In February 2020, due to the Pandemic, we were told that our applications were being nullified, with funding being diverted to other priorities. In April an application to the Art Council for emergency support was declined. We took out an emergency loan to cover fixed costs of liability insurance for the moored lifeboat and other stored equipment. Applications local authority Covid-Support discretionery funds were successful, the loan was repaid. 

## **Financial stakeholders** 

For some years, 2003-2007, we were in receipt of regular annual funding from  Arts Council England.  Since then we have gained from them  a  number of project grants. We were generously supported by local authorities at County and District level, until recent years saw their budgets for our sort of work disappear.  For various and appropriate projects we have gained financial support from the EU through **LEADER** projects, **Heritage Lottery Fund** , **Awards for All** , and from  private trusts including the **Foyle Foundation** , the **Tubney Trust, Fulda City CounciThe Belacqua Trust, The Self Heal Association** and the Sylvia Waddilove Foundation as well as the producing partners listed earlier.

## **Trustees & Director's Report (continued)** 

## **For the year ended 31st March 2022** 

## **Financial Review** 

## **Company Structure and financial position at the end of 2021-22** 

Since 2012 we have morphed into a small and low-cost organisation.  Reductions in the availability of general core funding have challenged the model of employing permanent staff and holding premises.  Now Common Players retains the loyalty of core artists and associates by encouraging them to develop  projects to further the company mission. Projects are selected and supported by the company and developed into project-funded activities.  Administrative overheads are minimized thus affording the company financial robustness for leaner times and avoiding the need to produce generalised work, which commands questionable commitment from artists, participants and audiences. The trustees have reveiwed the financial position at the end of 2021-22and are pleased to note that through a period of significantly increased activity, finances were stable. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The Company aims to maximise the use of available funds to further its creative work as far as this is commensurate with a prudent level of reserves.  In this regard our policy is to set aside funds only for known or probable liabilities. Reserves held are matched to projects underway at the balance sheet date and total **£6818** (2021 £7041). 

## **Risk Management** 

The major risks to which the charity is exposed, as identified by the trustees, have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks. 

## **Responsibilities of the Trustee Board** 

Company law requires the Trustee Board to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustee Board should follow best practice and: 

-select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

-make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and 

-prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the company will continue on that basis. 

The Trustee Board is responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Trustee Board is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Trustees have had regard to guidance issued by the CHarity Commission on public benefit. 

## **Conclusion** 

Through all the company developments, Common Players has striven to achieve its core mission: to create exciting, relevant and original theatre, both for and with communities who may otherwise lack local opportunity.  We look forward to ongoing engagement with Devonshire and Westcountry Communities, as we continue to innovate artistically and organisationally.  Our desire is that the administration costs of our work are kept to a minimum and that the artistic quality and content continues to bring new audiences and participants together to high quality and unique theatre experiences. 

## **With Thanks** 

The Common Players most valuable resource continues to be the energies of our active and enthusiastic team who continue to find imaginative and creative solutions to meet the challenge of delivering artistic and efficacious work.  I wish to express my thanks to the entire team; directors, administrators, trustees, actors, musicians, designers, sculptors, writers and the numerous volunteer community supporters who together help create our memorable theatre and events.  Particular thanks go to the continued energy and creativity of our Artistic Director, Anthony Richards.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees and Directors** 

## **For the year ended 31st March 2022** 

**as set out on pages 8-12.** 

## **Respective responsibilities of the trustees and examiner** 

The trustees ( who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law)are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charitiy's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- <> examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- <> to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and 

- <> to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations  from you  as  trustees concerning  such any matters. The procedures undertaken  do  not  provide  all  the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent Examiner’s Statement** 

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which  gives  me  reasonable  cause  to  believe  that, in  any  material  respect: 

- <> accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or <> the accounts do not  accord with such records: or 

- <> the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Charities Act 2006 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination: or 

- <> the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SOPR (FRS102) 

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
