Independent Examiner's Reporttothe Trusteesof
Mad Theatre Company
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Mad Theatre Company ('the  Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for
the year ended 30 September 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of
company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance
with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited
under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report
in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section
145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have
followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of
the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my  attention
in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and 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.

(FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of  Recommended
Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS
102) (effective 1 January  2015)',  Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and
the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the
historical cost convention.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity
has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received
and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or
constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is
probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and
the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted
for on an accruals basis and has been classified  under  headings that aggregate
all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be  directly attributed to
particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent
with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each
asset over its estimated useful life.
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 33% on reducing balance

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance  with the charitable  objectives at
the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes  within the
objects of the charity.  Restrictions arise when specified by the  donor  or when
funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the
notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme.
Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged  to
the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
