The Incognito Theatre Group Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31st July 2023 (continued)

Structure. Governance. and Management

Governing Document

The company was formed by the Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 9th December 2003. The Incognito Theatre Group is a company limited by guarantee and does not have a share caprtal.

The liability of each member in the event of a winding up is limited to one pound sterling, for the payment of creditors of the Charity contracted before he/she ceases to be a member, or within one year thereafter. At 31st July 2023 there were 84 iiuarantors in the register of members (2022: 74).

Appo intment of Trustees

The board of trustees governs the Charity. In accordance with the Articles of Association the board of trustees is elected at an annual general meeting when a third of the existing trustees retire by rotation. Trustees are eligible for re-election.

There is a minimum of three trustees and, bet-veen annual general meetings, additional trustees may be co-opted by the board for a term until the next AGM where they may be confirmed as new trustees.

Related Parties

The Charity is independent of any other charities or organisations but works closely with other organisations and leases the theatre from the London Borough of Barnet.

Risk Management

The trustees undertake regularly a review of the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and establish systems to mitigate those risks.

Objectives and activiti es

The Charity was established in 2003 to take over the assets, liabilities, and all activities of the existing Incognito Theatre Group, a private theatre club which has now been in existence for over 85 years. The Charity leases its own well equipped 64 seat theatre and aims to make high quality live theatre accessible to local actors, back-stage crew, technicians, directors, designers, writers and audiences and so enrich their lives and benefit the community generally.

Achievements and Pero rmance

The year under review was the first full year of productions since the Covid19 pandemic, and the Group put on its customa,y run of six productions roughly eight to nine weeks apart after a slightly longer summer break.

The programming of the 2022/23 season developed the recent trend of including more adventurous programming with modern themes relevant to life in the 21st century. The first in the season was 3Women which explored the rivalries and differences between a grandmother, her presently unmarried daughter and the granddaughter on the eve of the marriage of the middle one. The play was set in a perfectly realised Park Lane hotel room.
