Objectives and activities
Wayward is a charitable production company, working primarily in theatre. Our charitable objectives are:
-
. To advance education in the arts for the public benefit, in particular, but not exclusively, by the provision of activity for those who experience barriers to arts engagement due to financial circumstances or social background
-
. To promote and advance the arts through creating, touring and distributing theatrical and other art works for the public benefit
Wayward’s mission is to transform the UK’s theatrical landscape by bringing work from the fringes into the UK’s most prestigious venues. Wayward develops work from unexpected sources, creating artistic work of excellence and of the utmost relevance, reaching the broadest cross section of the public.
Wayward will develop an imaginative Engagement Programme working with groups not usually involved with the creative arts and challenging social and financial barriers to arts access through education work and subsidised and free ticket schemes.
Our programme incorporates performances, workshops, pre and post show talks, large scale engagement projects and other training and education-based activity.
This work is created using the following overarching programming principles:
-
. Excellence
-
. Innovation
-
. Diversity and new voices
The programme aims are to present work which:
-
. is relevant
-
. stimulates discussion and debate
-
. educates, informs and inspires
-
. reaches audiences who experience barriers to arts engagement
-
. shares and develops the very best of the art form
in order to develop art from understanding and appreciation and provide opportunities for education for the public benefit.
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 ’public benefit: running a charity (PB2).

Trustees’ Report
Achievements and performance
Wayward acquired the rights to THE LANGUAGE OF KINDNESS by Christie Watson, published in 2018. It was a BBC Radio 4’s Book of the Week and Waterstones’ Non-fiction book of the month in early 2019. The book recounts Christie’s career as a nurse and is also a call to arms for those who value the NHS. THE LANGUAGE OF KINDNESS was scheduled for Summer/Autumn 2020 with a major learning and engagement programme attached. Covid-19 in 2020 meant that this was postponed. Performances were rescheduled at Warwick Arts Centre, Tunbridge Wells Assembly Hall Theatre and Shoreditch Town Hall in May and June 2021. The production was also live streamed from Shoreditch Town Hall. In February 2022 the production won an OFFIE award.
Wayward’s BBC Culture in Quarantine radio feature - SHIFTS - for BBC Radio 3’s Between the Ears strand continues to be available on BBC Sounds. This was very well received when originally broadcast and in November 2022 it won the Life with Covid-19 category in the 2021 UK Audio Awards.
Performances of MICHAEL KOHLHAAS by Heinrich von Kleist in association with the Schaubühne Theatre, Berlin continues in repertory in Berlin and on tour in Europe. Directed by Annabel Arden and Simon McBurney.
AN ENGLISH SOUNDWOOD - a sound installation and collaboration with Max Porter and musicians Alula Down, was cancelled in March 2022 due to Covid-19 amongst the performers and was rescheduled for July 2022.
The adaptation of PRINCESS SMARTYPANTS by Babette Cole with The Wardrobe Ensemble has been postponed until 2022/23.
The relationship with Aitken and Alexander (publisher) remains fruitful and suggestions for books for stage adaptation are regularly offered up - there are several being mooted at the moment including Tyger by SF Said - recently published, it has already sold out and gone to second print. This a family / children’s book.
Staff members have been working freelance for other organisations - Judith wrote and submitted the NPO application (successfully) for the Lyric Theatre Hammersmith. She has recently taught at Rose Bruford. Jessie continues to work on opera with her own company and has produced two very well received shows on the London fringe this year. Lucy is currently restructuring the finance system for Wise Children. Philippa continues to produce and tour Lucy McCormick.
Financial review
At the year-end to 31 March 2022 Wayward held reserves totalling £313,498 (2021: £246,903). The company is therefore able to fulfil our designated reserves policy, setting aside funds towards future productions and as a contingency towards overheads. The budget for the following financial year to 31 March 2023 has been updated to reflect the significant changes to our programme of work due to the Coronavirus Pandemic. The company successfully bid for the second round of the Cultural Recovery Fund from the Arts Council and was awarded £100,000 and as a result the company was able to generate a small surplus in the financial year to 31 March 2022.
The Reserves policy has been set by the Trustees to be reviewed on an annual basis. Currently, aside from Restricted Reserves (£nil), funds are held in a designated Production Reserve of £140,000 to underwrite future production expenditure commitments for projects in development, and a designated fund of £45,000 as a contingency representing six months of budgeted overhead expenditure. The contingency fund will be held on an ongoing basis and reviewed annually by the Trustees against the following year’s budget. The remaining unrestricted funds at year end were £128,498.

Trustees’ Report
Risks
The Trustees acknowledge that for a new organisation there is always an element of risk involved and that their role is to steer the charity to ensure that its objectives are met and that the programme of work ensures the advancement of the arts and education for the public benefit. We monitor the Charity’s finances at every trustees’ meeting, in order to ensure that it remains financially viable, has sufficient funds to deliver its objectives and conducts its financial management in a manner befitting a charity.
A detailed risk register has been drawn up to identify the key areas in which the Trustees must support and guide Wayward’s staff and is used at trustee meetings and sub-group meetings to feed into agendas and to monitor progress.
The main area of risk continues to be the post-pandemic challenges and the slow speed in which live performance is returning ’to normal’ The Company was remarkably productive during the pandemic and reactive to constantly changing circumstances and going forward the company. As with all other theatre companies, technical staffing is an issue as many freelancers left the theatre, and actors are less reliable - opting for better paid jobs in theatre and film.
There is enormous pressure on fundraising - with the cost-of-living crisis and general scaling back of available funds - fundraising from trusts and foundations and elsewhere has become very competitive.
Plans for future periods
In October 2022 we did one week of R+D October looking at adapting ASSEMBLY by Natasha Brown working with director Tinuke Craig and writer Dipo Baruwa-Etti and a group of actors. We did an industry sharing with those attending including from the NT, Hampstead Theatre, Almeida Theatre, Bristol Old Vic Theatre.
We followed this with a short workshop in November 2022 on LICORICIA OF WINCHESTER with Tracy-Ann Oberman, Annabel Arden, writer Rebecca Abrams and some actors- looking at the life of a 13th Century female Jewish Money Lender. This was supported by JW3 arts centre who would like to be involved in any future life of this project.
Future workshops are planned or TYGER by SF Said a new book from highly acclaimed children’s author, and PANDEMONIUM by Armando Iannucci - a satirical ’mock’ epic poem that Patrick Marber will direct. A workshop for this is planned in Spring 2023
The full touring production of PRINCESS SMARTYPANTS will be co-produced with the Wardrobe Ensemble in 2023/24.
The company is in the early planning stages for another radio production with Jules Wilkinson (producer for SHIFTS) which would be produced in 2023/24.
The company’s website will be relaunched by the end of 2022 and in early 2023 we will actively seek 2 or 3 new Trustees to expand the board’s range of skills and experience. The staffing structure will also be reviewed in January/ February 2023 with a focus on fundraising, and an Assistant Producer to support increased activity.

Trustees’ Report
Statement of trustees’ responsibilities
The trustees (who are also directors of Wayward Productions Ltd for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
· select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
· observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2015 (FRS 102);
· make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
· state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
· prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Small company exemptions
This report is prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Wayward Productions Ltd
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 7 to 18
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under
-
section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting
-
requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Wayward Productions Ltd
(Limited by Guarantee)
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022
1. Accounting policies
1.1. Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), and the Companies Act 2006.
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).
1.2. Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis.
The Trustees consider the company to have enough resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future and is therefore considered a going concern.
After having reviewed the accounts and the company activities in the light of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, as mentioned previously, reforecasting and remodelling has occurred to take this into account. And on this basis, the Trustees still believe that the accounts should be prepared on a going concern basis.
1.3. Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when:
-
the charity is legally entitled to the funds
-
any performance conditions attached to the income have been met or are fully within the control of the charity
-
there is sufficient certainty that receipt of the income is considered probable
-
the amount can be reliably measured
- Donations and legacies
Grants/donations are recognised in incoming resources in the year in which they are receivable, except as follows:
-
when donors specify that grants/donations given to the charity must be used in future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods
-
when donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred and not included in incoming resources until the preconditions for use are met.

Wayward Productions Ltd
(Limited by Guarantee)
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022
- Charitable activities
Theatre income - income from box office, performance fees and sundry other theatrical income is included in incoming resources in the period in which the relevant show takes place.
Project specific funding - when donors specify that donations and grants are for particular restricted purposes, which do not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, this income is included in incoming resources of restricted funds when receivable.
- Donated services and facilities
Donated services or facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. On receipt, donated services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
- Investment income
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.
1.4. Expenditure
All expenditure is included on an accruals basis inclusive of any VAT which cannot be recovered and is recognised when:
-
there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment
-
it is probable that settlement will be required
-
the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably
- Costs of raising funds
Costs incurred in attracting donations, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.
- Charitable activities
Theatre production costs - costs incurred in production and running of productions toured in the year.
- Support costs
The administrative and overhead costs associated with running the office from which the company operates as well as governance costs. Support costs are wholly attributable to theatre production costs.
- Governance costs
Costs associated with the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity.
1.5. Pensions
The company operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. Contributions payable are recognised as expenditure when due.

Wayward Productions Ltd
(Limited by Guarantee)
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022
1.6. Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any trade discounts due.
1.7. Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
1.8. Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
1.9. Fund accounting
Funds held by the charity are either:
-
Unrestricted general funds - these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the trustees.
-
Designated funds - these are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.
-
Restricted funds - these are funds that can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
1.10. Financial Instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value, and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
1.11. Significant Accounting Estimates and Judgements
In determining the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities, the charity makes assumptions of the effects of uncertain future events on those assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date. The charity’s estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and expectation of future events and are reviewed annually.
2. Incoming resources
The total incoming resources for the year have been derived from the principal activity undertaken wholly in the UK.
