It has been a difficult couple of years for a small charity such as ours and at several moments we felt we were unable to carry on. However, with the support from all the people and organisations below we have survived the storm and now stand steady, ready to continue working with Harlow’s young people and ready to respond to our towns needs. Thank you. - Sam Ashford, Creative Director ## **The Jack Petchey Foundation** Without the support of The Jack Petchey Foundation we would not be here today. We have taken advantage of the excellent achievement awards scheme which has been a very rewarding experience for our young people. We would like to thank Nikki Casey, in particular, for her firm support and encouragement which drove our fundraising efforts forward so we are more able to source funding and eventually be self sufficient. ## **Essex Community Foundation** We regularly deliver work funded through the ‘Essex Community Foundation’. Although in this Academic year we did not apply for funding we continue to value their support and look forward to working with them again this year. _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _3_ Hare Street School continue to be a fantastic supporter of Livewire. Not only promoting our events to their students so they can take part and have been a key part in developing a Livewire project for the Royal Opera House Bridge. The Harlow Playhouse is now our major partner, our big sister. We run workshops each week and holiday sessions all within this wonderful facility that is the heart of our community. Without The Playhouse we would not be able to deliver he programme of work to the levels we are at now, thank you We run our Primary School sessions and our Yr7 and 8 group at Pemberley Academy. Without their donation of space, promotion to parents and all round support and enthusiasm we would not be able to run these sessions and reach 80 young people every week. A key part in developing a Livewire project for the Royal Opera House Bridge and we look forward to delivering our first Arts and Culture Theatre Challenge in the Autumn! _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _4_ The National Lottery Community Fund / Reaching Communities Fund have been a major part of our year. The Community Fund funded a project to reach new areas of the town whilst Reaching Communities are a part of the biggest development in Livewire’s existence…..words really don’t do enough to state the impact this support will have on our organisation. ## ECC ARTS AND CULTURAL FUND Essex County Council funded our Primary Theatre Challenges this academic year allowing us to reach hundreds of young people and new perform to new audiences across our town! ## Essex Music Hub EMH have funded our Livewire Vocal Collective sessions meaning we are able to have Roisin Quinn on board as a key member of the Livewire delivery team! These sessions are already making a huge difference to the quality of our young peoples singing and the experiences they are having with us. ## The Foyle Foundation FF gave provided 15k of funding to support our Primary School Theatre Challenges. Thisproject has ben integral to recruiting new members, introducing young pole across the town to devising original theatre, picking up instruments for the first time, dancing and acting and finding new talents. ## Oddfellows The Oddfellows funded our Prrimary Aged Theatre Challenge during the summer holidays. This was a wonderful opportunity for our younger members to spend time creating a piece of theatre and this enabled us to foster a new relationship with a long term partner and supporter. The Oddfellows principles, aims and objectives align with Livewire’s perfectly so a partnership on many projects going forward is an exciting prospect! ## Hays Travel Foundation The Hays travel foundation supported our work across the summer holidays helping over 100 young people perform, play and create! _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _5_ A letter from our Chair Person This has been another amazing year for Livewire! Its amazing to see how Livewire continues to grow. From our modest roots of one session on a Monday to where we are today is quite remarkable. With support from The National Lottery our team are settled and delivering consistently high quality workshops. I have enjoyed watching all of the performances this year, in particular the reworking of “PlayDead”. Not only was the performance really well attended and received; the video of the play itself is outstanding. If I was to show anybody what Livewire it is I would point them towards the documentary of Play Dead rehearsals. It really captured the family feeling we have at Livewire and showed how hard our young people work to create original theatre. Through the hard work and dedication of Sam, Becky, Roisin and Steve, along with a supportive team from the Stow Project and Music School Livewire has been able to grow, yet again, beyond what we ever thought it could become, so thank you all for this. I would also like to send a huge thank you to our Board of Trustees for your support and passion that you give to Livewire behind the scenes to help keep it running. This has been another great year for Livewire, and I look forward to seeing what comes next! Gemma Nicholson _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _6_ Annual Programme 2025 - 2026 What do we want to deliver this year?

Theatre Visits and trips for members development The Development of a Livewire Music School Continuation of The Stow Project _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _7_ ## **An explanation of our work** ## **Theatre devising** All of livewire’s workshops are based around improvisation and the devising of new and original pieces of theatre. The Livewire ‘Theatre Challenge’, in particular, is a unique and intense programme where the young people are involved in all aspects of putting on a piece of theatre in a theatre for the public. This process allows the young people to: - Explore different points of view around a key issue and turn them into a performance that is relevant and thought provoking. - Be involved in a process, which would not normally be accessible to them. - Be creative in their own way and on their own terms and for their enjoyment. - Make new friends. - Gain confidence in their own ability and learn to trust others. - Improve upon or learn completely new skills. ## **Interactive theatre** Interactive theatre is partially controlled by the audience with the assistance of a facilitator. The audience are presented with a scenario, which ends with four key characters all having opposing objectives. The action stops at a key point of decision and the audience guide the characters through the rest of the play. This is done by separating the audience in to four groups and allocating one character to each group. The audience then have to tell their character what to do and say according to what the character wants. By being responsible for the actions of one character at a time the audience are required to understand how and why people make decisions that affect theirs and other peoples’ lives well beyond the moment of action. The process aims to; - Free young people from the pressure to make ‘knee-jerk’ reactions, - Demonstrate the consequences of different courses of action in a safe environment, - • Help young people to re-assess their views by enabling them to stand in someone else’s shoes, - Give voice to the full range of views in the group rather than predominant, ’cool’ opinions. The interactive model provides young people with a ‘challenging’ but safe environment where they can experiment with and rehearse a wide range of behaviours in response to a multitude of social pressures. The process has to be based on the principle of ‘respect for all’ and the preservation of self-esteem. However, there is no attempt to ‘preach’ a right answer, ‘sloganise’ or even deliver a specific message, rather it allows young people to; _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _8_ - Explore different points of view around a key issue, - Develop discriminatory skills that will allow them to come to informed decisions about their behaviour, - Engage in a constructive dialogue about personal responsibility within a practical context. ## **Music Workshops** The Livewire Music Collective is open to young people who play instruments already and are ready to devise new, original music. Members are given opportunities to explore their own material, record and perform though gigs and as part of our theatre Challenge Projects. ## **Dance Workshops** The Livewire Dance Company is open to young people with zero experience or a lot of experience but who want to devise new, original dances. Members will take part in many performances and will work with Drama and Music closely to devise Dances that tell a story or highlight an important issue rather than commercial dancing (although this is still explored for technique purposes). _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _9_ ## **Livewire Objectives** - Create and sustain interactive educational theatre using young people from Essex in a tour of Harlow primary schools at least once every year. - Bring interactive and other forms of theatre to people who may have had little or no contact with the arts before. - Provide a safe working environment for young people to develop their theatrical, personal and social skills. - Challenge intolerance and prejudice in all its forms. - To always produce the highest quality of work possible, therefore promoting young people as talented, dedicated and engaging members of our community - Use the frequent contact with young people as a basis for regular youth work. - Use interactive theatre as a forum for discussion. - As a charitable organisation, raise its own funds in order to provide a free, high quality service to all young people. - Sustain and Develop weekly music and dance workshops. To maintain and care for all young people’s mental wellbeing . _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _10_ **Creative Director’s Report** This year our workshops have continued to run smoothly with numbers sustained and new groups developing as a result of our stability. Through independent fundraising we have been able to start a weekly Tap Dance session, buying our own tap shoes so that the class remains open and accessible to all. A local resident and usher “Ed” at the Playhouse has donated his own money to get us off the ground as it was his wife’s passion. We are forever grateful to him and is another example of the fantastic community links that we are constantly building. We have continued our work in The Stow, an area of high deprivation in Harlow. Funding was extended through the Safer Harlow Partnership and we now have new members attending our Lottery Funded Sessions as a direct result of our outreach work into the community. Essex Music Services also extended their provision through us as we began our LDJ sessions where young people can spend an evening each week learning how to mix and DJ. Our Easter Theatre Challenge was a huge success with a cast of over 70 young people attending. We initially upped the amount of participants to 40 (20 in drama and the rest divided between band and dance). However, the applications for spaces where overwhelming! We decided to recruit an extra member of staff and developed a model of per- _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _11_ formance where they could all be engaged. This involved the drama cast being split onto 2 large groups that had two separate story lines that could be performed in turn but still impacted each other. Dancers were divided into groups rather than all dancing on the same songs. We also performed twice, back to back, allowing all parents/carers the chance to see the show, over 250 people attended across the 2 shows, a sell out twice over! We have made a decision that we will continue to work in this way as long as we can find funding for the extra members of staff and that the space we are working in has capacity for that amount of young people. Following the Easter Theatre Challenge our groups continued to run smoothly however we did have to make one decision that would impact some of our young people. We adjusted our dance timetable, removing the eldest group and replacing with the youngest. We have had a huge surge in younger members taking part and many, if not all of our older members, were moving on to university or employment. It felt like a natural step to focus on those younger members and we have offered the chance for those that showed enthusiasm for it to come and assist with the younger groups. This is something that happens throughout Livewire, older members move on and younger members come through and we are delighted that it has happened smoothly although we are sad to say good bye to to some of that older group. _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _12_ They still have the option to join Drama or Music if they wish so it’s not goodbye forever! Our Open Mic session in May was another great success. The LMC (Livewire Music Collective) opened the evening with two hours of original music performed by all of our musicians and singers. Parents, other members of Livewire and members of the public all enjoyed a lively and enjoyable community event. When our guys had finished performing we held an open mic event for the public and it was really encouraging to see young people who were not Livewire members getting up to perform. The event itself is ticking up momentum and is becoming an event that many young musicians in our town look forward to and see is a great opportunity to perform live, something that is desperately lacking in Harlow. Following this we turned our attention to bringing our play from last summer “Play Dead” back to the main stage. We felt that this show needed to be seen by a wider audience and we wanted it to be recorded properly, to showcase what we can achieve and leave a legacy of our work for all to see. We invited councillors, agencies working on the issue of “Violence towards women an girls” such as MIND, teachers and students from local secondary schools. We almost sold out the main auditorium which is a massive step for us, especially with a smaller cast and we were delighted to have our MP Chris Vince in attendance. _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838 13_ This was a landmark occasion for us and one that really shows our progression in the past few years as long people have grown through Lottery funded Livewire Sessions.Play Dead Act One and Act Two: We finished the year with strong sessions across the board with activities happening every weekday evening! Followed by three successful Theatre Challenge Projects. Firstly we ran our main Theatre Challenge for Secondary aged members. We spent the week at Hare Street devising a show called “Melody” which we performed at Victoria Theatre. We took the skills one of our members had learnt at LDJ and incorporated them into the performance. This was a first theatre challenge for many of our young people and we focussed on making sure all of their ideas were valued and praised, we wanted to create a positive/energetic environment from the start and I feel we definitely achieved this. _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _14_ We then held our first Primary Theatre Challenge since 2020 with funding through The Oddfellows. We handed the role of Creative Director to Becky Gentry who oversaw the week. She was supported by Leo Shepherd who devised the drama and we were able to em[ploy too former members who are now working in education and at University to be support workers to both Becky and Leo. On a personal level this was a massive step, this was the first project that I wasn’t involved with devising, I just turned up and enjoyed the performance! Massive congratulations to Becky and the team for their achievement and for keeping the Livewire “vibe” and quality The Oddfellows response was entirely positive, they are so supportive of our work and we are looking forward to repeating the project next year as they have agreed to fund the Theatre Challenge again. Our Playhouse Summer School was funded by Hays Travel, another first time funder. We used our funding to spend a week devising stories, characters, songs and choreography for our Playhouse Summer School. Week two saw the whole cast coming together to put the show together. We had already decided to set the play in The Stow (although we never mentioned it by name) and, as we began devising, there was unrest in the real world. Flags had gone up around town and their was violence outside of hotels housing people who had migrated to the UK. We found ourselves devising our story to reflect what was going on around our community and devoted a piece that told the story of a young person caught dealing drugs in the community and how the people of the area reacted when they discovered he was originally from another country. We all felt incredibly proud of our performer, we sailed to make it more “musical” and with our devising period we were able to double the amount of songs thank in other theatre challenges. Overall we were very happy with what we achieved but, as the creative director I felt we could have been tighter. We could have been sharper. Maybe this would have only taken another performance or two to reach but it is a reminder of the capacity we have in this projects and that if we aim for too much then the quality can suffer. This sounds harsh, it was a great show and every young person performed brilliantly. The songs and dances were excellent and we were real proud to be raising these issues at such a turbulent time, I just know that we can be sharper and I will factor this in to shows moving forward, we must allow for time to run through shows fully more than once to give us that flow and energy we get from confidence. Overall it’s been another fantastic year with new faces coming through, different young people coming to the front and leading. We have more new projects for young people in Harlow to get involved with and the family keeps growing. We were able to provide DJ sessions for the best part of the year with support from Essex Music Services and Essex Community Services continue to support Livewire by funding Sing and Play workshops for primary schools in Harlow. On to the next year, who knows what we will have achieved in that time! _Livewire Trust Annual Report 2024 - 2025 Registered Charity Number 1104838_ _15_ ## **Average Participant Numbers across the academic year 24/25** |Livewire Drama Year 3up
