Section C Objectives and activities

Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

The objectives as stated in the governing documents are: To advance the public education and appreciation of the arts in Birmingham and the West Midlands (the area of benefit) through the provision of workshops, classes and by such other means as the trustees may determine. To promote and facilitate the dramatic arts in the area of benefit in order to provide the public with the opportunity to access high quality theatre.

In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit, including the guidance on public benefit and fee charging. The charity has maintained its affordable ticket prices and low cost for public youth classes. We still operate our ‘pay what you can’ performances to allow access for financially disadvantaged people. We continue to release free to view videos/films on YouTube.

Stage Performances

The Murders in the Rue Morgue

56 Tickets – We presented the piece recently so didn’t expect a large turnout, it was more to have a dress run before taking the play to the Edinburgh festival.

The Hound of the Baskervilles

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

140 tickets – This was a new one-man version, for Birmingham Fest and the Edinburgh festival. The numbers were reasonably healthy as it wasn’t too long since we presented the piece.

The Prussian Officer

94 tickets – A new adaptation by Ben Mills-Wood from the short novel by D.H. Lawrence. We had expected a larger audience for this piece as it was the first time we presented it and it was an adaptation from a famous author. The audience response was good though.

Whistle and I’ll Come to You 196 tickets – A new adaptation by James Nicholas. We were happy with the numbers for this piece. It was another premier for us and our first adaptation of an M.R. James short novel.

The Hanged Man’s Bride

173 tickets – A new adaptation by James Nicholas. Again we were very happy with the audience numbers for this piece. It was the first time we presented it. We generally find that we do well with adaptations from Dickens novels.

Can’t Stop Carrying On

125 tickets – We presented this really as a dress run again as we were taking it to Edinburgh. We were pleased with the audience numbers as it had only been presented the previous year.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

A Christmas Carol

720 – after the huge success of Christmas Carol last year, having sold out most performances we decided to present the piece a second time. For some reason however we really struggled for numbers this year and although didn’t technically lose money barely broke even which is a real worry.

Little Red Riding Hood

622 – as we last year we presented 2 pieces. The second being Little Red Riding Hood which was a new version by Simon Ravenhill. The piece sadly sold extremely poorly as did Christmas Carol being the lowest selling Christmas play we have ever presented. This posed quite a huge problem as we guaranteed a reasonable wage to the actors for both productions which has left us in a poor financial position.

Birmingham Fest

We didn’t have a huge take up for Birmingham Fest, this was in a large part because we presented 6 of our shows but still had 8 external companies so we a busy 2.5 weeks.

Edinburgh Fringe Festival

We took 5 shows to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this year (pieces noted above) totally in 85 presentations (although we lost one due to a power outage in the city). It was successful, we didn’t sell quite as many tickets as we had hoped but still sold 3016 tickets.

Youth Theatre

The Youth Theatre numbers continue to be stable. We increased the price but just very slightly. The issue is we really need another 15 or so young people to really cover the costs of running the youth theatre. We run it as a social service which is of course fine but with our current financial concerns it is become a bit of a concern within itself.

Film

iHands - Lady Chatterley.

We filmed a new short film in the iHands series, iHands - Lady Chatterley. We showed a preview of this on the 23[rd] December which went down very well. We will submit it to streaming services early next year in the hope of building up an audience.

Hands On Film

we made a number of the comedy film review show for YouTube. We didn’t manage to grow as large an audience as we had hoped but hope to continue making them next year.

Everyone In

We started work on a homeless short film in collaboration with Richard Price who formally worked at Crisis. It is based very loosely on Jon who used to spend much of his time in front of Tesco. Jon sadly passed away during Covid but we are unsure where it was due to Covid or a different condition. The film is more inspired by him rather than based on him. We are hoping to finish the project early next year and will look to submit it to a number of national and international film festivals.

Tour

We have embarked on a small tour of Can’t stop Carrying On. This year we have performed at the Albany in Coventry and Walsall Arena. For next year, we have booked, Barnsley, Goole, Shaw, Shamley Green, Surrey and the Cinema Museum in London.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

Ticket sales in the early part of the year were very healthy but sadly the Christmas shows did poorly. Hopefully next year we can resolve this.

The youth theatre is continuing to have decent number although would benefit from a good push.

Our film work has been particularly notable and we are looking to continue that next year, hopefully getting the previous project onto streaming services including Amazon Prime..

We still have a good number of volunteers working with us and have given employment to a good number of artists throughout the year.
