Objectives and Activities

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

  1. To provide performance arts opportunities for those on the autistic spectrum to work and perform as part of an integrated theatre group.

  2. To enhance the understanding of autism held by the general public in our geographical area of Sheffield and its environs.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects

The trustees can assert that the charity’s activities have continued to meet its declared objectives to the benefit of both members and the wider public.

Between April 2022 and mid-July 2022 we developed and then performed a new piece of theatre, ‘Moving On’, which explores the challenges faced by those on the Autism spectrum as they transition from one situation to another eg., from school to college/university, from education to work, from being dependant to independence. Members’ own experiences provided content and messages. We performed this at the Sheffield Library Theatre. For our newer members, this was their first experience of public performance with Spectrum.

In Autumn 2022 we rehearsed our new, original musical, ‘Sanctuary’, which told the true stories of two asylum seekers, both of whom were in the production, which also celebrated Sheffield’s status as the U.K.’s first ‘city of sanctuary’. Audience response was fantastic. ‘This is a valuable piece of community theatre both in its content and diverse company…a truly neurodiverse group of talented individuals’.

We continued our collaboration with Sheffield University Medical School, hosting four of their third-year students on a community placement as part of the production.

From January 2023-April 2023, we adapted and rehearsed our show All Change, an exploration of genderstereotyping, for performance in June 2023. This production provided the opportunity for some lessexperienced members to extend their range of acting skills.
