The trustees are pleased to present their annual report for the year ending 31 May 2023 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a trustees!"report for Charities Commission purposes. 

## Chair!s report 

Following the end of COVID restrictions we were able to mount our first production in the year, being the pantomime Sleeping Beauty.  The year was also notable for marking the end of expenditure on our long-planned roof restoration. 

Our purposes and activities 

The purposes of the charity are: 

to educate the public in the dramatic and operatic arts, and to further the development of public appreciation and taste in the said arts. To assist and further such charitable institutions and charitable purposes as the committee may from time to time determine. 

The trustees have considered the Charity Commission!s guidance on public benefit, including the guidance on public benefit and fee charging. The theatre relies on the income from its shows to cover its operating costs. In setting the level of ticket prices and concessions, the trustees give careful consideration to the accessibility of the theatre for those on low incomes. 

The strategies employed to achieve the charity!s aims and objectives are to: 

prepare and run theatre productions including musicals and pantomimes for the enjoyment and education of our local community; 

offer opportunities for a broad range of people to get involved in arts activity developing their own creative powers; 

concentrate on involving young people in our shows to help encourage a culture in which different age ranges play a complementary part; 

The trustees and officers serving during the year and since the year end were as follows: Chris Woodhead elected chair: 

Elected trustees: Emma Waring : Secretary Ian Knight : Treasurer David Elliott Jeff Peacock Rebecca Matthews Alison Boardman Margaret Tetley 

Organisation
