About Spun Glass Theatre
Spun Glass Theatre is an award-winning theatre production company based in Hastings, East Sussex. A Spun Glass Theatre project often takes shape as performance but can also include workshops, interactive experiences such as treasure hunts, home art packs, escape rooms or audio based story adventures, in addition to creative acts in and for the community.
At all times we are interested in placing our audiences as co-creators in the act of make-believe and inspired by the impact this can have on little ones’ hearts and minds. We are ambitious about creating accessible family experiences with a theatrical spin. Through these accessible theatrical experiences we seek to build long lasting relationships with both families with children aged 0-12 living in South East of England, and the creative and civic community of Hastings.
Guiding Principles
We are a local and regional arts charity, based in Hastings, East Sussex,we balance running locally-focussed venues with developing creative projects for touring across the South East of England to theatres, schools and community venues.
Our activities are welcoming, fun, entertaining and educational, but we never preach. We draw on popular performance forms for inspiration. We will involve local communities in the creative process in a meaningful way for all devised productions. We aim to be at the forefront of theatrical innovation with an original and high-quality creative practice.

Guiding Principles cont...
We believe that, in order for our whole community to enjoy the physical and mental well being which culture can offer, we have to engage with audiences from the start of life and ensure Spun Glass are at the forefront of creating meaningful creative experiences for families and children in Hastings.
These principals are best expressed through our Guiding Principals document, originally produced for our First And Second Workshops from 2021-2024.
We are always guided by the best industry practice on accessible activities and spaces for all. All our activities will always be either free or low-cost to low-income families.
We endeavour to minimise our environmental impact wherever possible.
Summary of the year
2024-2025 was the first full year of Spun Glass Theatre’s residency at The Stade Hall in Hastings. Under the creative direction of Dan Hutton and Ross Drury, the company had several key successes including welcoming 10,000 people through the doors of Stade Hall for a range of creative and community activities, successfully funding the welcoming Make Your Mark creative sessions for children aged 0-4 and programming a wide range of theatre and performance events.
At the end of 2024, Spun Glass Theatre vacated The Mini Playhouse, bringing a very successful two year project exploring Early Years access to the performing arts to a close. Designed specifically for early years audiences and their families. Mini Playhouse was a creative hub that brought babies, toddlers, children, siblings and parents together, while immersing them in the magic of live performance, art and culture, these principals and objectives live on in the work of Spun Glass Theatre at Stade Hall.
Spun Glass Theatre also established a wide range of partnerships in the Old Town community and beyond. The company was successfully placed on the East Sussex County Council Priority Pipeline for Arts and Culture partnership and funding opportunities.

The benefits of our activities
Advance the arts through presentation and programming :
A successful partnership has been established with Applause Rural Touring, who are supporting Spun Glass Theatre to bring a wide range of family performance events to Stade Hall, promoting drama in the local area
Sail Away 2024 - 444 audience members in Total.
The Creative Directors programmed a season of events from May 2024 - September 2024. This was aimed at developing a new audience for Stade Hall, and welcoming in a new era of the Hall as a performance venue.
Highlights included:
Work in progress showing of Catch a Sea Star - Early Years Opera
Work in progress performances of With Courage - a new musical about the experience of volunteers in the RNLI by PlayWell Productions.
A fabric canopy created by Bamboology was installed on the ceiling of Stade Hall in December 2024 made possible with generous funding from the Marchus Trust.
To celebrate this stunning new addition Spun Glass Theatre invited Glimmer Theatre to Stade Hall to perform The River Runner - in a new partnership with Farnham Maltings bringing excellent touring theatre to small spaces.
A range of theatre and performance was programmed in collaboration with community partners including 18 Hours and Soundcastle.
Soundcastle
We joined fellow Arts Charity Soundcastle to help deliver their programme Musical Beacons - an inclusive family music play programme - in Broomgrove.
Throughout this project, we worked in close partnership with the brilliant team, co-hosting spaces for accessible family stay-and-play sessions. This created a thriving collaboration between the facilitation of early years drama and music practice.
Musical Beacons has reached around 660 people, including over 180 as part of our fortnightly stay-and-play sessions, over 50 at In2Play outdoor pre-school, over 60 on our Musical Walkabouts, and around 370 people through 3 Broomgrove family fun day events. We look forward to a prosperous relationship continuing to develop in this area in the future.
Activities to support children aged 0-4 and their families Make Your Mark
Make Your Mark takes the form of free to access play and art sessions for children aged 0-3, focusing on mark making skills. Early Years specialist Abi Horn devised a scheme of work to be delivered at Mini Playhouse Hastings, via drop in free to access play sessions. Up to 20 young children/babies and their care givers took part each session. Resources included pen, chalk, playdough, paint, cardboard, collage and more.

Activities carried out to meet the objective and for public benefit
Comments made during the sessions include:
-
“I love how relaxed and safe I feel here”
-
“This was wonderful”
-
“I’ll definitely be back”
-
“It’s so lovely and relaxed”
-
“It’s lovely to find an afternoon activity”
-
“It’s lovely to have something that is free”
The community raised £750 in donations to extend Make Your Mark into January 2025, with a well attended Christmas fundraising event .
818 attended Make Your Mark between April 2024 and December 2024 with roughly another 150 from January to March 2025.
As the sessions were free it meant that parents and caregivers gave their children a free flowing activity that is safe, creative and stress free without the added burden of finances. We saw toddlers take their first steps in the space, hold a pencil for the first time and interact with other babies and toddlers to learn about sharing and playing and creating together.
Parents and caregivers interacted with their child without the burden of setting up and tidying away and were also able to have that much needed hot beverage without the worry of spillage or it getting cold. We saw families returning from session to session across the project lifecycle.
A ‘Make Your Mark’ creative pack was created for families to take home and continue child-led explorations of different art mediums and mark making with them at home. Over 2,000 copies were distributed free of charge through food banks in Hastings, Brighton, London and across the South East thanks to Arts Council funding.
Trustees look forward to the return and continuation of Make Your Mark activities in the following financial year.

Other Partnerships - A Partnership with Katie Dale Everett Dance cont...
Prior to the performance, we take audiences through a restorative optional movement session as a moment for them to arrive in the space, connect with their babies and also perform movements that they often do in isolation at home with others experiencing similar things to them.
Spun Glass Theatre supported the development of this new dance theatre piece with a series of free to access workshops for 30 parents and 30 babies aged 0-12 months at Stade Hall. The premiere performance was also hosted here at an affordable rate of £5 per ticket. The performance was sold out with 50 parents and 50 babies in attendance.
“Engaging, moving, welcoming, sweet, tender, caring. I was moved to tears in the collective slow dance. It touched me deeply.” - Carer
Spun Glass Theatre will continue to support A Dance for Us as the project prepares to tour in 2026.
Stade Hall
During 2024-25 Spun Glass Theatre’s operation and development of Stade Hall grew quickly. Work continued to build the venue as a popular destination for many hirers and community groups, including but not limited to record fairs, parties, community groups, craft fairs, cooking workshops, exhibitions, rehearsals and classes.
As part of this development investment was made into the fabric of the building through a fabric canopy created by Bamboology. This was installed on the ceiling of Stade Hall in December 2024, made possible with generous funding from the Marchus Trust.
Alongside this, extensive work was undertaken to redevelop the Spun Glass website to incorporate this new venue, ensuring that potential local hirers and audiences could easily access information about Stade Hall.
Hirer Testimonials
“ As a new user of the hall I have been made more than welcome and supported by the staff. The hall has great access, facilities, supplies and booking system necessary to run a wide variety of art classes. There’s also a supporting website and social media platforms to advertise classes. I have established three new classes with numbers increasing term by term, which wouldn’t be possible if the facilities were not comfortable. I intend to increase my classes over the next year.”
“One of the best venues I’ve been fortunate enough to work in. So brilliantly managed and taken care of, Ross and Dan are wonderful and have made such a great impact on the local community.”
“Stade Hall has proved to be an excellent venue for hosting my record fairs. The venue is light and airy and being right by Hastings seafront, it's a great location for attracting visitors to the town. Ross and Dan from Spun Glass Theatre are really helpful and quick to respond to any booking queries, making sure the events always run as smoothly as possible. I would highly recommend the venue to anyone looking for a suitable hall to hire in Hastings.”

Hirer Testimonials cont...
“I have been hiring the Stade Hall to hold my Burlesque classes and I am really happy I made the move here. The space is newly refurbished with a good floor and great lighting - and having some air conditioning as a fantastic bonus! I have found the owners to be friendly, accommodating and quick to respond to any questions or concerns I might have. The multi-use space has plenty of chairs and tables and facilities to screen if needed, all stored away if you need a big space. It’s good value for the price and I really appreciate the location in the old town”
“I have found the renting of the Stade Hall Classroom on the Coast to be very easy to do. Communication is always prompt and professional and any problems encountered have been dealt with swiftly and appropriately. I have also found you both to be very accommodating and flexible if needs be.”
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The principal funding sources for the Charity come from Grants and Fees received for each project. The Charity ensures that all monies raised by the trustees go direct to the projects.
Reserves Policy
The trustees have considered Spun Glass Theatre's need for reserves with reference to the level of risk it faces. They have concluded that it is important for the charity to always hold in financial reserves, as a minimum, the funds that would be required to ensure an ordered and proper closure of Spun Glass Theatre.
This level of reserves will fund:
-
Any redundancy payments due to employees.
-
Accountancy and other professional costs.
-
Costs relating to the termination of contracts including rent and equipment hire.
• A contingency sum held for outstanding liabilities.
This initial reserves position assumes that no immediate withdrawal of funding will occur. To mitigate the risks arising in the event of an immediate loss of funds, the trustees have established a policy whereby the charity's intention is to increase unrestricted reserves to a level equivalent to three months' core operating costs, within the next two years. The trustees consider that, once achieved, the target level of reserves should be maintained on an ongoing basis in order to ensure the future financial resilience of the charity.

Risk Management
The Trustees conducted its annual risk assessment to identify and mitigate financial and operational risks, ensuring the charity's stability and effective operation. Particular attention was given to:
Financial risks, including maintaining sufficient reserves, managing cash flow, and reducing reliance on external funding by exploring sustainable income streams such as Stade Hall hire and similar local opportunities.

Community engagement risks, addressing barriers to participation to ensure accessibility and inclusivity in all our initiatives.
By proactively managing these risks, the Trustees aim to safeguard the charity's long-term viability and its ability to deliver its objectives.
