Birmingham Youth Theatre Ltd Trustees Annual report 2023
Blrmingham Youth Theatre was estsblished in 1987 as an extension of the BMOS Adult theatre and it
is still flourishing over 35 years later. The Youth theatre was formed the vision of providing
young people frorn the ages of 10 to 18 with the surroundings and a stsge to develop actin& dancing
and singing skills as well as the opportunity for personal developmenL These principles continue to
this day and over the years we have seen many of our members, progress Into professional careers In
the perforn]ing arts.
In most years The Company rehearses for and presents 2 professionally produced and staged shows,
generally a musical and a pantomlme: for many years the shows were performed at the Old Rep
Theatre but the company has now settled at the Crescent Theatre off Broad StreeL
Our income comes from, memberfs subscriptions. tickets sales and sponsorship, supplemented by a
nurnber of ad hoc donations. The main Sponsor is The Lillie C lohnson Charitable Trust and we are
indebted to them for their continuing support both in terms of sponsorship and patronage of the
shows. A number of Financial and commercial organisations provide funds based on employee
involvement and applications to internal funds. e.g. Employer Matched Giving [e.g. The Lloyds
Foundation) as well as Asd4 Tesco and TK MaxL Funding from Just Giving Easy Fundraising and
vartous events throughout the year, have provided very useful addRtional income.
The Company receives tremendous support from our members. members, famllies and friends. and
"business" partners.
In 2023 we Stsged two shows as normal. Sister Art and Sleeping Beauty, both of which were well
attended and successful. Turnover from all sources for the year was just in excess of £41.000 the same
as 2022, and although show costs remained the same, administration costs such as printin& website
and workshops increased resulting in a small deficit Members funds reduced from £14,419 to
£12,352
We staged The Little Mermald In luly 24 to good reviews and are currently in rehearsal for Snow
White.
There have been some changes in the Board of Trustees but the core remains the same, with all
members being people with a real passion for the development of the young people through the
performing arts.
