bringing people of all ages and backgrounds together in a shared and rich
experience
reaching out to people who have no experience of theatre
creating opportunities for participation (including young people, vulnerable adults,
the elderly and peop.le who are isolated or socially excluded)
endeavouring to create a better undersianding of ourselves and others
The beneficiaries of our activities are people in Bristol. the South West of England and
occasionally London.
The Trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidan￿ on public benefit and
endeavour to implement them in all the charitys work.

Achievements and Perfomiance
Our ninth year of operation was a welcome year of resuming live activity for the first time
since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, and a chance to pilot new initiatives that
sought to reduce isolation among young people and tIK)se affected by mental ill-health in
our local St Paul's community-
In March-may we colleded untold stories (via social media and street outreach) of
struggles that people were facing. as a plaffomi for people to share their experience of the
pandemi¢. From money worries and loneliness to anxiety and negative bcmjy image, we
compiled 8 substantial accounts to create a script for a promenade street show called
TODA Y I FOUGHT A TIGER that playwright Liz Mytton created under the premise of a
tiger having been let loose on the neighbourhood of St Paul's. In accordance with
restrictions at the time. the show had three performances 16-17ih July and played to a
limited but almost sold-out capacity of 30 per performance.
Meanwhile. in mid June, we launched a 6 week pilot scheme of 'Youth Drama, workshops
at St Paul's Learning Centre supported by Nalional Lottery Community Fund, in a bid to
provide creative opportunities for 13-17 year olds to connect with others in a supportive
environment while learning new skills. This was followed up with a second round in
autumn 2022 with a smaller but dedicated group and it was a Chan￿ to upskill a trainee
facilitator who grew in Confiden￿ throughout the scheme.
Alongside this. and further to thé success we had in connecting in young adults during
TODA Y I FOUGHT A TIGER. we piloted a 4 week taster acting course for 18-25 year olds
in Septemberloctober 22 to build ￿nfIden￿ and give those interested in acting a low-risk
subsidized way to do so. thanks to a Quartet CF Express grant. Follow-up workshops
supported by the National Lottery ensue(l and led to weekly temi-time 18-25 Acting
workshops led by a range of Bristol practitioners for the rest of the academic year.
Organisationally, the year also saw us move from our co-working Spa￿ at Emrnaus into a
shared office at St Paul's Learning Centre with loneliness prevention charity, The
Marmalade Trust. which has been an opportunity to develop and deepen relationships
with local partners, while two Bristd University undergraduate placements lin Spring and
February) and a UWE graduate placement (from Sept-Dec 21) enabled us to increase
capacity and give three young adults their first experien￿ of a career in the arts. As the
year came to a close.we were also selected to take part in WECA'S 3 month Creative
Growth Sector Programme and were awarded a £3.000 mentoring grant to support the
artistic director in larger fundir¥J bids and advance the company's marketing strategy.
During our ninth year of operation we engaged a totsl of 35,088 people through our
activities. This included 36 artists. 123 participants, 9 volunteers, 90 live audience and
34830 online audience.
Since Lightbox Theatre began nine years ago we have Created 13 shows, and engaged
326,343 people as audien￿, participants and artists, and V￿ look foDNard to further
success as we approach our tenth yearl

ARTISTIC ACTIVITY: SHOWS
In July 2021 we presented our first show since the pandemic began. After a ￿-year
pause on creating shows, we did so by returning to our theatre-making roots of discovering
untold stories through community outreach. Given the pandemic it also felt fitting lo give
people in our local St Paul's community the chance to share recent stories of overcoming
advefsity. and we achieved this through community walkabouts, adverts in local
community magazines as well as a social media campaign from March-June 2021.
The result was a °Covid-safe" 60 minute outdoor show fvnded by Arts Council England
which took place on the streets surrounding St Paul's Leaming Centre for three
perfomiances on 16 & 17th July. The show was also made possible by the support of a
Quartet CF Express Grant and 9 volunteers.
Due to restrictions, numbers We￿ limiled to 30 per show. but the nearly sold-out
promenade show was also enjoyed by passerbys as audience were whisked to six
different k)cations by upbeat percussion playing guides to hear actor5 voice real stories
(including struggles with anxiety, societal expectations and pressures. neurodiversity,
eating disorders, body image, parenting and loneliness), alLretold through the lens of Liz
Mytton's script which imagined that the struggles were the result of a mythical tiger having
gone on the rampage in St Paul's.
151

Al the end of the show the audience V￿re invited to write down 'their own tiger. on a
postcard, and there was space for conversations to start and for participants to voice their
slruggles. They included.. anxiety,. money slruggles.. fear of failure,. motivation,.
relationships,. feeling trapped," body image, denial of sem-love
LIJJ
, nilli ',F;
Given that many of the stories shone a light on the mental health struggle5 of young
adults, the show led us to think about how we could engage 1&25 year olds in a creative
way in autumn 2021.

Keen to counteract the isolation of young people who had had limited creative engagement
in St Paul's during the pandemic, and with encouragement from local partner organisations
about the need to address the inequality of opportunities. we launched a 6 week drama
workshop pilot series in JunelJuly 2021 at St Paul's Learning Centre for local 13-17 year
olds, with funding from National Lottery Community Fund. Led by facilitator Alex Ogando,
and trainee facilitator Sabrina Simms. the Monday evening sessions introduced participants
to a range of performance and drama skills, such as puppeteering. improvisation and
storytelling. all with the aiffl of building confhjence. creativity and connection amongst the
attendees. The sessions were marketed through local community partners and neighbouring
secondary schools. While the sessions generated good feedback from participants and we
engaged 16 participants overall (11 of whom were local). they were attended sporadically-
some weeks with up to ten participants and other weeks just hvo. We consulted local
partners and Creative Youth Network who affirmed that engagement in their activities was
lower than pre-pandemic in part due to Covid infectionl¢autKJn. We also received feedback
about Ihe difficulty of partirApants committing to weekly workshops in summer exam season
and the suggestion that we change the time of the sessions but keep sessions 'drop-in'.
This led us to ty a follow-up six-week programme in the autumn on Saturday momings. Our
autumn course ran at Docklands Centre. the home of long-established Full Circle Youth
Project. with the aim of engaging their service users. The focus of these follow-up six
sessions was on creating an environment where participants felt safe and supported to
playfully explore their creativity, grow their confidence and have fun through building theit
perfomiance skills. The sessions were led by our production placement Dannie Dart. and
supported again by trainee facilitator Sabrina Simms, but unfortunately had just two regular
participants.
While again we had g￿)d feedback fr(xn the participants and our trainee facilitator grew in
confidence, our learning through the delivery of both courses is that recruitment and
engagement of this age group is difficult and we need to rethink how we reach a greater
number of local youth and develop stronger connection to local schools before running
further activity.

At the end of September. with support from Quartet Community Foundation we launched a
subsidized 4 week Taster Acting Course for 18-25 year olds at Sl Paul's Learning Centre,
aimed at providing an introduction to acting in a supportive environment through storytelling
and "play-. 11 was really encouraging thal some of the sessions were attended by young
adults that we engaged during TODA Y I FOUGHT A TIGER, and given the demand for
further sessions among participants, we followed this up with the launch of a 6 week'18-25
Acting workshops, series in November with the support of the National Lottery Community
Fund.
Each week we invited different Bristol based actors and theatre practitioners to share a
particular area of their practice as well as their joumey into the perfomiing arts industry.
These aspects of ¢￿ative practice included skills such as improvisation. Stanislavski
technique, devising, Cfeating theatre from autobiographical content, Meisner technique and
physical theatre.
[81

The series was really well received and was extended into January arKI February for a
further 6 weeks, with topics such as puppety. clowning and screen acting. Over the
twelve-week period between November and February we engaged 10 participants in the
workshops and were thrilled to re￿1ve further funding from the National Lottery and Arts
Council England to extend these weekly sessions until July 2022, with the opportunity to
create a surnmer showcase a5 a Culmination lo the academic year.

primary aged children during the 20121
lockdowns, we had a request from Oasis

provide 25 kits to give children recently arrived

arts and crafts materials to enable children to
get creative while being resident in temporary
hotel accommodation during Oclober half term

In a bid to provide further opportunities for young
adults, and in particular to those interested in
working in the performing arts but with limited
opportunity to gain practical experience during
lockdown. we offered three 'in-person'

undergraduates at Bristol University (Maddy

Sustainabili
and Future
Lightbox Theatre aims to operate in a financially responsible manner, to align its activities
to its resources and to increase self-generated income through box offi￿, fundraising,
private donations. workshops and public subsidy. Our ninth year of operation has been a
welcome return to activity. ￿th an increase in our revenue and we have been really
energised by the move of our operations to St Paul's Learning Centre where our activity is
happening. Not only has it made life simpler logistically l!) but being based back in a lively
community ￿ntre (like our London days al Katherine Low Settlement) has spread our
connections in the community and it has been instrumental in helping us feel more rooted
in Bristol. As we continue to see more possibility with local partners we look forward to
making more theat￿ and to upcoming projects that reduce isolation and give voice
particularly to young people and people suffering mental ill-health.
Financial Review.
Through our fundraising activities we covered all of our annual project and administrative
costs, with substantial contributions towards next yearfs activities carried forward as
Restricted Funds. A full breakdown can be found in the financial pages below.
ReseNes Policy
The Trustees have established a policy of reserving approximately three months, running
costs to cover any unforeseen drop in the charity's income. which equates to
approximately £4,500. The unrestricted cash reserves heid at 28102122 were £3,19912021
£4,835). Although this is below the tsrget level, the Restricted Funds to be utilised in 2022-
23 include contributions towards such running Costs. therefore the trustees consider the
charity a going concern.
