TRUSTEES’ REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS’ REPORT) FOR THE YEAR E!DED 31 MAY 2023

The Directors present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 May 2024.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charity's memorandum and articles of association, the Companies Act 2006 and "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)" (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016).

The Dilys Guite Players (DGP) began in 1946 and performed in Sheffield's Library Theatre. After the rescue of the then-derelict Chalet Theatre by Dilys Guite, a local drama school teacher, the building was renamed The Lantern Theatre. The Lantern Theatre is Sheffield's oldest surviving and only small Victorian theatre. It is a Grade II listed building. The Theatre's beautiful and intimate setting is the home of the DGP. Their members are encouraged to become involved in a variety of areas of production. These include acting, new writing, set design, set building, stage management, directing, technical (lighting and sound), publicity, props, front-ofhouse, bar work and all aspects of theatre art.

The DGP Mission Statement

The DGP is a not-for-profit community theatre group which stages an energetic and diverse entertainment programme at The Lantern. The DGP aims to create, develop and nurture theatrical skills through the performance of productions. This includes collaborations and partnerships with like-minded groups to create a programme of the utmost quality, variety and greatest possible accessibility within a sound and sustainable financial framework.

Objectives and activities

The Dilys Guite Players Charity and Limited company own the theatre. Their main objectives are to further dramatic art in all its forms and to educate young people in dramatic appreciation and study. Seven directors presently organise the company, one being a Company secretary, with the aim of devoting all of the company to its objectives as set out in the Memorandum of Association. Additionally, the charity and company aims are:

Values

The DGP aims to work with all members towards the achievement of an artistically exciting and financially sound organisation with an enthusiastic membership in a safe and healthy environment.

The DGP Board commits to providing effective leadership through:

Membership

Our members are required to:

Membership is open to both paid DGP members and front-of-house volunteers (no membership fees). Paid membership applies to the creative element of the theatre and backstage opportunities. Auditions are workshop style, meaning no preparation is necessary. This encourages new actors to the stage along with experienced members and the casting decisions are made by directors and their assistants with support and approval by the DGP Board. This ensures we involve as many members as possible across various productions and experience levels.

The Directors have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake.

Currently, the Charity has no employees and runs entirely on volunteers. We thank them for their continued support, expertise and dedication throughout the year.

Achievements and performance

The year to 31 May 2024 has been one of significant growth and success for The Lantern. Audience numbers have risen steadily, with several sell-out shows for Dilys Guite Players (DGP) productions and external hires. The bar has also seen increased activity, with more attendees enjoying the facilities before and after performances, further boosting income and enhancing the overall theatre experience.

DGP productions have been received exceptionally well, with strong audience and critical feedback. A particular highlight was our Agatha Christie production, which sold out several weeks in advance, and our ever-popular Christmas show. The New Writing production also stood out, achieving an impressive 74% capacity—an exceptional result for a programme showcasing original and unknown work. Volunteer involvement has flourished, with new members joining to support front-of-house operations and others auditioning for productions. This has brought our paid membership to over 100. The Creative Team continues to push boundaries, acting as producers for DGP's diverse output. The individual show teams and directors bring a variety of styles to the stage while experimenting with creative technologies, such as the effective use of multiple projectors and lighting effects in our production of Grimm Tales and the interesting use of film in The Sculpture . Meanwhile, the front-of-house team has worked diligently to optimise bar pricing and operations, ensuring this area strongly supports the theatre's projects.

External hires remain a crucial part of The Lantern's operations, with a dramatic increase in hire requests this year. While we have accommodated a wide variety of events—including magic, music, comedy, filming, and school groups—we have also faced challenges in fulfilling every request due to scheduling constraints, the size of the venue, and the nature of some proposed activities. Additionally, the administrative requirements associated with hires remain substantial, limiting the volume of work our team can undertake. Despite these challenges, we successfully introduced a new type of daytime hire, hosting weekly drama classes that allowed students to engage with the arts in a professional theatre setting.

As we moved beyond previous challenges presented by the pandemic, the theatre's activities not only returned to a typical pace but also surpassed pre-pandemic levels in audience capacity. Over 31 unique events, complemented by 35 additional daytime hires, offered a diverse and engaging programme. Highlights include a mix of well-known plays, new works, and lesser-known gems from the DGP, a popular music programme, several weddings, and increased community involvement through local festivals and neighbourhood discounts.

This year has demonstrated The Lantern's resilience and creativity. We continue to engage with the community, foster a love for the arts, and evolve to meet the needs of our audiences and collaborators alike.

Financial review

The directors aim to maintain adequate reserves to ensure that the theatre continues in the future.

Reserves are needed due to the seasonal nature of theatre in relation to ticket sales, periods of darkness when productions do not take place, in the event of hirers cancelling their shows and being able to finance future DGP productions given all the previous. The building is an important asset, requires maintenance, and may require extended periods of darkness to allow this to occur, where no income is generated. The directors keep a reserve of £20,000 and continue monitoring insurance costs and utility bills to ensure the venue receives the best services and prices from these providers.

The risks are reviewed regularly, and appropriate systems are in place to mitigate the effect of any significant risk.

Plans for the future

This year has demonstrated The Lantern's resilience and creativity. We continue to engage with the community, foster a love for the arts, and evolve to meet the needs of our audiences and collaborators alike.

The Lantern's focus on maintaining and improving the theatre remains a priority, with several ongoing projects. While the theatre has experienced a strong year of growth, external companies and services necessary to progress certain projects have not yet returned to full capacity, which has delayed some of our plans. Nonetheless, we remain committed to the following objectives:

In light of the significant increase in hire requests and the theatre's growing operational demands, the Dilys Guite Players (DGP) has begun discussing updating its Articles of Association. A key aspect of these discussions is reintroducing a provision allowing for service agreements with trustees, where necessary, to better manage the theatre's operations, as so many of the administration services provided by some individuals are outside of the role of a trustee. The Charities Commission permits the option to enter into such agreements

when explicitly provided for in the Articles, and this is part of their standard template for charities when they are created.

When the Articles were last updated in 2018, the option to enter into service agreements, including with trustees, was removed from the standard template, as it was deemed unnecessary for the charity's needs. However, with the theatre's significant growth over the past six years, it has become clear that retaining this provision would have been a more forward-thinking choice. We now aim to reintroduce this option to reflect the charity's current and future needs and ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements.

We intend to seek legal advice to determine the most effective way to implement these changes while safeguarding the charity's integrity and maintaining transparency. Updating the Articles will enable the charity to adapt to the increased administrative and operational requirements of running a thriving venue, ensuring continued success. The day-to-day administration of a venue of this size and activity level is immense and increasingly requires professional services to provide essential daily support. Running the venue can no longer be done solely by volunteers and ensuring the appropriate governance structures are in place is critical for sustaining the charity's growth.

We continue to hold restricted funds of £10,623, which includes a generous donation from the Nether Edge Community Group to improve and replace the roof. These funds remain allocated to this critical project but require additional grants or funding to cover the costs.

Donations to the DGP from our audiences—via online box office facilities and the collection box at the venue—also remain vital to supporting building maintenance, productions, and the theatre's overall operational costs.

The future of The Lantern and The Dilys Guite Players is centred on preserving and enhancing our historic venue by delivering high-quality productions and creative opportunities for the community. We are confident in the progress we will achieve in the coming year as service provision and funding opportunities continue to grow and as we ensure our governance aligns with the charity's growth, vision, and the standard practices now expected when running a modern charity. These modifications include revisiting provisions, such as the ability to pay trustees for services provided outside those of being a trustee, where necessary, to ensure we are fully equipped to meet the operational and administrative demands of the present day.

Structure, governance and management

The company, a registered charity, was incorporated on 6 December 1957 under the Companies Act 1948 and is a company limited by guarantee and not having a share capital.

The Lantern Theatre was built for private use in 1893 and in the 1930s was unoccupied and falling into disrepair. In 1957 it was discovered by Dilys Guite, a local actress and drama teacher. Dilys set up an amateur theatrical group in the theatre after agreeing to a "peppercorn" rent with the then owner Mr Richardson. Mr Richardson was so impressed with the group’s efforts that he gave the theatre to them in memory of his wife. The theatre and its outbuildings are Grade 2 listed.

The members of the Directors who served during the year were:

Mr Kevin Jackson Miss Anne Herbert Mr Harry Rowbotham Ms Alison Glentworth Mr Phillip Claxton Mr Damon Jackson-Waldock Miss Hannah Burgess Ms Vivienne Mager (left the board of trustees December 2023)

The Charity may, by ordinary resolution, appoint any person willing to be a director. The directors may appoint any person willing to act as a director. The appointment of a director, whether by the Charity or by the

other directors, must not cause the number of directors to exceed any number fixed as the maximum number of directors.

Positions available on the board will be advertised, and candidates will be required to attend an interview with the charity/board of directors. The applications must be sent in writing to the current board. Following interviews with selected candidates, the board will appoint the successful candidate based on appropriate skills for the role.

None of the members of the Directors has any beneficial interest in the company.

The company is occupied in the same building as Lantern Theatre Limited, a company incorporated on 10 January 2012.

The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Directors
