## **Brightlight Theatre Company** Annual Report – year to 31 December 2023 Brightlight had a successful year; our three shows were each of a high standard, each profitable and each well-received by the audience. We were able to donate over £1,500 to good causes from the proceeds of performances. We also performed a play written by our own artistic director at The Woking drama festival, and this managed to win awards. The committee continues to function appropriately, and consideration given to all the requirements of our organization. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive and friendly group.
