Concert 2024 - ‘Journey Back to the Future’ This was challenging for several reasons, yet another new venue as a result of the Armstrong Hall remaining closed following lockdown and the continuing negotiations between Thornbury Town Council and community groups. Building on the audience figures in respect of ‘Misfits’ our previous years concert at St Peters Hall in Filton. The Committee considered that there was an imperative to return to a location in Thornbury, particularly as the position in respect of the Arts and the Armstong Hall was developing in a positive way which included engagement with TMTG as a major stakeholder. The concert was therefore staged at the Methodist Hall in Thornbury, this was not without its challenges due to the provisions for disabled access, which would restrict future use of the venue. However, the show was a success and was well received. This approached maintained the groups profile within Thornbury during an important period for the Arts. MAIN SHOW 2024 ‘Made in Dagenham’ TMTG's main musical this year was Made in Dagenham. Once again, the production was supported byour incredible |
|---|---|---|
production team who worked tirelessly to provide a quality production. All members pulled together as the group returned to the Olympus Theatre for a second time due to the Armstrong Hall closure. This still required a concerted effort to promote the show and build an audience in a location outside Thornbury. The positive outcome was that the group again was able to spread and promote the arts to a wider geographic and demographic area. This also included an increase in our membership we believe for several reasons: the choice of show; and the opportunity to perform in the venue. It is pleasing to see that our new members have remained with the group. Interestingly TMTG is also attracting members from other groups which provides for a cross fertilisation of ideas and increased resilience. Following the resolving of issues covered in the previous reporting period the group felt able to seek show sponsorship resulting in £1500 from Trust Ford. TMTG again received much praise from the official reviewers, NODA and Rose Bowl. PANTOMIME 2025 ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’ Again, due to the continued closure of the Armstrong Hall the group were unable to perform within Thornbury. However. the group were delighted to return to the Winterbourne Community Centre (WADCA) for the second year. As stated in the previous reporting period, due to the smaller size of the venue the show was a ‘Pop up Panto’ written by group members and was well received within our increasing catchment area enabling the members to experience and develop in the medium of pantomime, whilst also trying out new ideas and performance times. The show was well received and a success with ticket sales at 80% TMTG PRESENTS In addition, TMTG promotes the Arts through engagement with community
events including the carnival, Christmas carols, the dementia memory café and local
residential homes through its ‘TMTG Presents’ concert party. This was and is considered particularly important to ensure that the group maintains a high profile within the Thornbury area. This activity is undertaken voluntarily by the group for the benefit of many residents who are unable to access or otherwise attend our usual venues.

Achievements against objectives set |
Para 1.41 |
The Prime objective was to further build confidence within both the membership and audience members to return to the theatre following ‘lock-down’ as there is still a need to encourage audiences away from the streaming services to enjoy live cultural events. All shows achieved this to a high standard and were well received. The second objective was to secure new venues due to the continued closure of the Armstrong Hall, whilst consolidating the groups position in respect of the Olympus Theatre, Filton and WADCA in Winterbourne. This was achieved with the Thornbury Methodist Hall also being used during the period. The third objective for this period was also to rebuild internal confidence and harmony following the issues covered in the previous reporting period. This was achieved by fair and impartial governance particularly in respect of auditions. There were also a number of very successful social events, including a summer party, skittles evening and a Burns Night supper. It was also necessary to look outside for TMTG for specific roles including technicians and also young people for the Pantomime. This proved to be a positive and enriching experience for the group with both visiting members and long established members returning to participate. These objectives were met. In addition the concert and pantomime made a profit of £1911with the main production Made in Dagenham also makingaprofit off£3439 |

Financial Review
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | The charity sustained financial impact during COVID as a consequence of the events involving the former Junior section which were covered in the previous reporting period. The focus this year has been to consolidate, build and look to the future. TMTG returned to profit during this period. Venue issues with newer audiences in a wider geographical area are still a challenge, however we are building on success. This could potentially mean that our new audiences may travel to see future productions in Thornbury. Production costs continue to rise, in particular venue hire. The Charity's public benefit is to serve both its members and the local community,so careful consideration is |
|---|---|---|
| given to which shows would be more popular with audiences (and therefore more profitable) but also which shows the members would like to perform. Careful consideration is also being given to increasing ticket prices and membership to ensure an inclusive approach. |
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | It is the group's policy is to hold reserves equivalent to the approximate cost of one to two shows. This would equate to between, £20-30,000 the group is aware of these challenges in the current climate and returned to 3 adult shows one being a Pantomime to achieve improved reserves. In addition TMTG has ongoing running costs which include a Scenery and separate Costume store although it is intended to consolidate these during the 25- 26 period to produce efficiency savings. TMTG also approaches another critical phase in that the former Armstrong Hall may be partially reopening during the 25-26 period given that the venue has been closed for a number of years community engagement and audience numbers are therefore an uncertainty. There is a desire for TMTG to return to the venue and therefore needs reserves and resilience to support this potential change. The Trustees intend to develop and Implement 1. a financial strategy 2. Risk Strategy 3. Business continuity plans 4. Explore options in respect of further grants and sponsorship It is recognised that all of these may not all be completed within the next reporting period. |

Other optional information For Clarity it should be noted that the Charity Commission report covers 01/04/2023 31/03/2024, whereas the TMTG year runs from May to June with some actions requiring ratification at the groups’ June AGM. Following events that have been fully detailed in the previous reporting period, the trustees continue to enhance and improve financial governance across TMTG. This includes longer-term financial planning and budgetary control sharpening accountability. Debit Cards have been reintroduced for the Chair and Treasurer to allow for flexibility and expedient purchasing. Greater use has been made of technology in respect of ‘Bank Line’ and ‘Free Agent’ to ensure prompt and efficient processes. This has involved engaging an accountant and a new Independent Reviewer. Tt was apparent to the trustees that Since this course of action early indications are increased financial stability and greater cohesion within the group which will be further reported on within the 25-26 period. ~~ee~~

THORNBURY MUSICAL THEATRE GROUP LIMITED (COMPANY NO: 06556554 ENGLAND AND WALES) DIRECTORS, REPORT The directors present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025. Principal activity
Thornbury Musical Theatre Group Limiled ITMTG} is a tx)mmunity-based performing arts organisation dedicated lo promoting and staging high-quality theatrical productions, concerts. and community performances in Thornbury and the surrounding area. The Group relies heavily on the commitment and enthusiasm of its volunteers, the majority of whom are also members. Volunleers contribute across all aspects of production, including performance, set construction. technicAI management, costume and makeup design, stewarding, and fronl-of-house duties. The Directors wish lo record their sincere gratitude lo all volunteers for their invaluable contributions,. without their support, the Group's work would not be possible. REVIEW OF THE YEAR During this financial year. the Directors have focused on strengthening the Group s finaniaal tx)sition. We are pleased to retK)rt a small bul significant improvement In the Group s finances compared to the previous year. 11 should be noted that following a resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting. the Junior Section has been formally closed. This decision will result in a reduction in lumover in future years- however. it will allow the Group to consolidale resources and concentrate on maintaining high standards in its main productions and (x)mmunity engagement aclivilies. PRODUCTIONS AND ACTIVITIES Concert 2023 - 'Journey Back lo the Future" This production presented several challenges, including the need to stage the concert al yet another new venue due to the ongoing closure of the Armstrong Hall and continued negob'alions belween Thornbury Town Council and community groups. The Comtnittee recognised the importance of maintaining a presence in Thombury and. therefore. selected the Melhodisl Hall as the venue. While the hall posed some limitations regarding disabled access. the concert was a success and well received by audiences. This event played a vital role in sustaining TMTG'S local profile during a key periiKI for the arts within the cotnmunity. Main Show 2023-"Made in Dagenham" The Group returned lo the Olympus Theatre for a se¢ond year due to the conhnued unavailability of the Arrnstrong Hall. Despite being located outside Thombury, the production was successfully promoted and attracted a strong audience. The show also contributed lo an increase in rnembership, driven by tK)Ih the appeal of the chosen production and the opportunity lo perform in a professional venue. The Group was pleased lo secure £1,500 in stK)nsorship from Trust Ford, and received excellent reviews from both NODA and the Rose Bowl adjudi(zlors. The Directors are particularly proud of the (x>llaborab've effort demonslraled by members, which enhanced tK>lh the reputation and resilience of the organisalion. Pantomime 2023 -"Jack and the Beanstalk" TMTG was delighted lo relum to the Winlerboume and District Community Association IWADCAI for a second year with ils"Pop- Up Panto.. written by Merntr5 of the Group. The smaller venue created an intimate performance atmosphere and allowed experimentation with new ideas and performance formals. Ticket sales reached approximately 80 /0, and audience feedback was overwhelmingly positive. The pantomime also provided valuable development opwrtunilies for ffiembers in this perfomian genre. TMTG Presents The Group continued ils important community outreach work thrjgh "TMTG Presents. perfom)ing at local events including the Thornbury Carnival, Christmas carol services, the detnentia rnemory café, and IIKal residential hotnes. These performances are delivered voluntarily and form a key part of TMTG'S tnission to rnake the performing arts accessible to all, especially those Ljnable to attend larger public venues. FINANCIAL REVIEW The financial position of the Group has improved m(xlesUy during the year, reflecting (Xreful cost management, increased sponsorship incoffle. and strong audien support_ The Directors remain comrnitted to ensuring the Group operates sustainably while continuing lo deliver high-quality productions and community engagement activities. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS The Directors continue lo monitor developments regarding the Amstrong Hall with interest, and remain oplimislic about a potential return to a dedicated performance space in Thombury.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT To the TnteeS of THORNBURY MUSICAL TEIEATRE GROUP LIMtTED Charity No 1124233 Company no 065556554 (England and Wales) I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 The charity's trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with th¢ lernis of the Charities Act 201 J ('the Acl"). It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 145 of the 201 l Act and in carrying out my examinatiotL I have followed all the applicable Directions given by Ihe Chlty Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. and to state whether particular matters have come io my attention. My examination is carried out in accordance with the above regulations. The examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of ihe accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit. and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. Independent examiner's stalement Audit Finding: Observation.. Duringthe audit, itwas noted that the implementation of Free Agent Sofv8re had vastly improved the record keeping and purchase transaction supporting documentation is now readily available. As previously disclosed by the Directors and Trustees. there was a split in the organization between the Adult and Junior sections { due to reasons already referred to and reported to the Chariiies Commission in November 2024.) This split has resulted in a breakdown of conununications between the two parties. During my examinatiory no matter has come lo my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, A) The accounting records were not kept in accordan with section 130 of the Charities Act. Disclosures - Legal Advice was taken by the New Board of Trustees/Directors because of their Incident report to the Charity Commission. TMTG Association hold Restricted Funds on behalf of TTrG Ltd (FY2024-25), those funds being membership fees which must be used for the purpose of providing the services of TMTG as an Agent ofTEvG Ltd to the Membersm. p.
