WOKINGHAM THEATRE

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accountingand Reporting by Charities: Statement of RecommendedPractice 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Significant activities

The principal activity of the Theatre is to promote the enjoymentof all aspects of theatre in the Wokingham area and to provide facilities and opportunities for its members to participate in such activities.

Volunteers

Theatre membershipis open to anyone over the age of 16 against an annual subscription of £20 (£5 for students) and those members work on an unpaid basis to carry out all of the activities associated with staging performances, maintainingthe building and equipment,administeringthe Theatre and running the Youth Theatre. On average we sell over 97% of the tickets available - effectively playing to full houses.

There are no selection criteria for members, and all members receive a monthly newsletter which includes notificationof show auditions as well as appeals for assistance in other aspects of the Theatre's activities such as helping Front of House during productions.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Due to continuingCovid-19 restrictions the Theatre remained dark for most of the financial year. There was one outdoor production in September 2020 and a small production in August 2021 which was offered at 50% capacity. A normal eight production season is planned for 2021/22.

The Youth Theatre was able to resume in-theatre classes in the Spring and held a showcase in August 2021. They are currently planning a normal season for 2021/22.

As with previous years it was our intentionto offer a range of training opportunitiesto members, but the enforced lockdown meant that these activities were curtailed.

The Board took the opportunity of the enforced closedownto undertake a full scale refurbishment of the dressing rooms, workshop, foyer and box office thus the facilities were not available for the wider community. The Theatre will resume its normal engagement with the community in 2021/22.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Investment policy and objectives

Overall, the Theatre's policy is to identify its accumulated retained profit as a "building fund" to finance future enhancements to the property and its facilities.

The plans for building a Studio are currently on hold as eighteenmonths without our normal income has had an impact on savings. However a barn is currently under construction which will provide additional storage space.

Fundraising has been more limited this year but the Theatre has received Gift Aid, Donations and Grants to the value of £28,732 during the year.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The Theatre has no outstanding loans or other financial commitments. Budgets are agreed by the Board at the start of the financial year - based on past expenditure and any planned variation from the norm. Through the monthly financial reporting, the Board is able to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet anticipated spend.

FUTURE PLANS

There are no plans to make fundamental changes to the Theatre's annual programme of activities or way of operating. The Board's policy is to maintain and build on our strong position in the community by offering a varied and challengingprogramme for our members and audiences and by making ourselves accessible to a broad spectrum of the local community.

EVENTS SINCE THE END OF THE YEAR

Information relating to events since the end of the year is given in the notes to the financial statements.

THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

The theatre remained largely closed throughout the financial year, being unable to reopen in March 2021 as had been hoped. The new season for 2021/22 has been sellingreasonably well, although there is some reluctance from some patrons to return to the theatre yet. At the end of the financial year the Theatre had reserves of £742,862 and remains a going concern.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees (who are also the directors of Wokingham Theatre for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland"

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 that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to

The trustees are responsiblefor keepingproper accountingrecords which disclosewith reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to 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.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF WOKINGHAM THEATRE

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Wokingham Theatre (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 August 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities,the Balance Sheet and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conductedour audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing(UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilitiesunder those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilitiesfor the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and the provisions available for small entities, in the circumstances set out in note 13 to the financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believethat the audit evidencewe have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material uncertainty related to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Page 5

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF WOKINGHAM THEATRE

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connectionwith our audit of the financial statements, our responsibilityis to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.

We have nothing to report in respect of the followingmatters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities,the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determineis necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Page 6

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF WOKINGHAM THEATRE

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectivesare to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conductedin accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatementwhen it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliancewith laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

The extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud

Our approach to identifyingand assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:

We assessed the susceptibilityof the company’s financial statements to material misstatement,including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

Page 7

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF WOKINGHAM THEATRE

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliancewith laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

Material misstatementsthat arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities.This descriptionforms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accountingand Reporting by Charities: Statement of RecommendedPractice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income receivedin advance of a theatrical performance is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliable by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Government grants

Government grants are recognised in the income and expenditure account so as to match them with expenditure they are intended to contribute. To the extent that a grant is made as a contribution towards expenditure on a fixed asset, the grant is deferred and written off to match the amortisation charge of the fixed asset.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Expenditure

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets held for the charities own use are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives as below:

Short leasehold - 2% on cost Fixtures and fittings - 15% on cost Computer equipment - Straight line over 3 years

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includescash and short term highly liquid investmentswith a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

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 estimatedreliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognisedat their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts.

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.

Going concern

After having regard to the circumstances and measure set out in note 14 and 15, the trustees have a reasonable expectationthat the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existencefor the foreseeable future.
