## **c. Main activities undertaken to further the charity's purposes for the public benefit**
The current activities of the company have been detailed in this report. The directors confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when reviewing the company’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
Talawa's public benefit criteria are as follows: -
- Talawa is a Black British theatre company that provides recognised cultural, engagement and training programmes that develop British African and Caribbean disapora arts and artists for mainstream British theatre.
- It is a reliable and balanced advocate for the current issues faced by Artists from African and Caribbean Diaspora and Audiences from Africa, Caribbean diaspora and South, East and South East Asian diaspora heritages.
- It is a high-profile partner for developing work with an ability to generate respect and trust within the African, Caribbean diaspora and South, East and South East Asian diaspora community.
- A leading role in the arts sector advocating for anti-racism policies and practicies both on stage and off; providing bespoke training to businesses within the arts industry and other industries, focused on biases and anti racism cultural shift within organisations.
## **Note from the Chair**
Talawa Theatre Company (TTC) continues to be a leading Black theatre companies in the UK. The company exists to create, produce and tour quality work which shines a spotlight on Black talent, presenting theatre for a diverse range of audiences across the country. In addition, we spend a considerable amount of time and resources on our year round national talent development programme, MAKE. MAKE offers training and development opportunities to Black artists at all stages of their careers. We launched the online component to the programme, MAKE Online, a virtual hub that gives Black artists the opportunity to connect and collaborate, and gives industry shapers the chance to offer paid opportunities.
Following confirmation of funding for the period 2018-2022, TTC continues to be an Arts Council National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) and TTC was successful in applying for an extension year on its funding which now runs to 31 March 2023.
We co-produced our first outdoor work with Greenwich Docklands International festival called TIDE. Shoreditch Town Hall hosted our Talawa First festival mixture of performances and workshops.
Talawa’s co-production model is based on working with partners, sharing the risk. Whilst this means that box office income is shared and is lower than in previous years, it also means that by sharing costs we can produce more work and tour work for longer.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT**
## **For the year ended 31 March 2021**
In January 2021 we nominated a Chair of Finance sub committee within our existing trustees. Olivier is a Finance Director for Soho Theatre and is an experienced accountant.
Talawa became part of the Croydon Creative Collective a programme that works with 8-18 years old across Croydon. Talawa is one of the core partners and we deliver activity across the borough. MAKE employed 25 artists to work with young people on the Creating Routes, C3 (Drama and Dance workshops), industry talks, masterclasses, schools workshops and engage workshops with Beyond face and Voyage youth centre.
Due to COVID many trust and foundations stopped taking applications. This impacted on planned new applications for MAKE 2021 and TYPT 2020 programme. MAKE programme is moved to 2022. TYPT will start up again in 2021. However we have successfully applied for money from Croydon Covid relief to create Tales From the Front Line a new digital project, as part of Talawa's move into Digital art.
Talawa Theatre Company (TTC) has offices and studio space in Fairfield Halls. Covid 19 pandemic lockdown started in March 2020. This resulted in Fairfield Halls closing and the venue continued to be closed until March 2021. TTC continued to operate and produce work by moving online and creating new digital content. This included our artist development and community engagement programme. We did not need to furlough our staff and we did not apply for culture relief funding, as we had reserves and an unspend from not touring.
Covid has a marked impact on the freelancers in the arts sector (most artists are freelancers). Talawa is involved in supporting freelancers, through the Freelance Task force. We continued to engage with artists and audiences online and applied for funding to create our first digital project 'Tales From The FrontLine' which engaged Black Ethnically diverse artists.
We continue to look at ways in which we can rebuild relationships, and strengthen the organisation within this new COVID reality.
## **Elaine Banton**
## **Achievements and performance**
## **a. Review of activities**
Talawa’s activity remained high with productions dedicated to new work, Talawa adapted to a shifting climate brought by the Covid-19 pandemic and found new ways of delivering its mission: to champion Black Excellence in theatre; to nurture talent in emerging and established artists of African and Caribbean heritage and to tell inspirational and passionate stories, reflecting Black experiences through art. Our achievements of productions, artist development programmes and public training sessions, all happened during or after the UK lockdowns.
## The Tide

The Tide is co-created by writer Ryan Calais Cameron and choreographer Jade Hackett. The Tide is supported by the Without Walls Consortium, and is commissioned by Brighton Festival and Greenwich+Docklands International Festival, and is Talawa's first show created exclusively for outdoor performance. The Tide toured to festivals in 2019.

Our annual Festival of new work was due to be presented at Talawa Studio in Fairfield Halls. It continues to present the best of upcoming and diverse talent to producers and opens up opportunities and activities in theatre, television and film, driving diversity in the arts and the arts workforce. Talawa’s aim is to kick start careers and create community of artists who — with our support — will become the next generation to influence the future of British theatre.
Due to Covid, 2020 festival was cancelled and the next one ran in July 2021.
## A Place For We

## Talawa Cafes

## Tales from the Frontline
## (July 2020- April 2021)
The pandemic has had a starkly divergent impact on communities; Black people are four times more likely to die from Covid-19, according to Office of National Statistics figures in May 2020 for England and Wales. While in November 2020, the Joint Committee on Human Rights report “Black People, Racism and Human Rights”, concluded that the Government must urgently take action to protect the human rights of Black people across many areas, including healthcare. The Tales from the Front Line interviews were a space for the Black workers to share their experiences, their concerns and their hopes for the future. Black artists and creatives have then used the testimonies to create six dramatised pieces of work using music, movement, photography and soundscapes to convey the story. These were released episodically, with the first two films (part 1 & 2) being made available on 30 November 2020 and parts 3 & 4 released 11 February 2021.
Our aim was to document and celebrate the contribution of Black workers during the crisis, to create a lasting historical record.
## MAKE
Throughout the year we ran the various strands of the MAKE programme, targeting Black artists across the UK. In all we engaged with 330 artists across the year.
Studio Firsts (which used to run 3 times a year with some financial support) didn't operate during 2019/2020, instead we offered rehearsals or research & development space in the new Talawa studio at Fairfield Halls.
TYPT is Talawa’s flagship programme for emerging Black theatre makers. A team of emerging artists aged 18-25 will work with established artists to create a brand new show in Talawa Studio. This is being relaunched in April 2021 (it is a 9 month programme), as the 2020 programme was cancelled due to COVID. Participants recruited for the 2020 cohort will be offered the opportunity to come back onboard. Recruitment for any remaining places will happen in FebruaryMarch 2021.
## _R&D space for Talawa artists_
As the Studio Firsts was cancelled, instead we offered Talawa artists access to the studio space for 2020. 5 artists used the studio space for 7 weeks of R&D. We had bookings until September 2020, the remaining were cancelled due to COVID 19.
## _Talawa Firsts_
Fresh playwrights and directors, Tife Kusoro, dir. Abigail Sewell; Ryan Cameron, dir. Anastasia Osei-Kuffour; Babirye Bukilwa, dir. Miranda Cromwell. Mixture of double bill performances and workshops across 9 days, hosted at Shoreditch Town Hall.
## _Script Reading Service_
The service aims to read scripts from emerging Black writers and give them critical feedback and development support on their work. This free-to- use service attracted 220 writers through the year.
## _Talawa Writers' Programme_
We are currently commissioning, and co-commissioning 7 writers through Talawa Writers’ Programme.
Northern stage, Orange Tree and The Royal Exchange Manchester are new commissioners for Talawa's writing programme.
The programme aims to bring onboard partner companies, commission three writers, and put together a programme of activities to support their development and establish these writers within the industry.
## _MAKE Online_
We launched MAKE online, a resource for Black artists across the UK during the year. As at 31 March 2020 there were 800 registrants, of which 215 identified themselves as organisations or individuals from the wider industry and the remainding 585 identified as artists. We believe that MAKE Online is a unique space for Black artists in the UK, and that it is beginning to change the industry. This continued throughout 2020.

## **a. Going Concern**
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

## **b. Reserves Policy**
Free reserves comprise unrestricted funds excluding designated funds and amounts invested in fixed assets. The level of free reserves held at 31 March 2021 was £249,048 (2019: £159,047). This is considered appropriate for the current level of activity taking into account the designation of funds below.
At 1 March 2021 the directors designated £159,000 of the general fund as follows:
• A designated minimum reserve of £103,000 is to cover the costs of salaries and overheads for a three-month period.
• A new designated artistic reserve of £56,000 is to cover any potential overspend on productions. The reserves have increased to keep up with increase staffing costs.
## **c. Current year results**
The company received an 18% uplift in ACE funding for the period 2018-2022, to support its Talawa development programme nationally.
The company’s total reserves increased by £73,037 for the year ended 31 March 2021 (increased by £16,230 for the year ended 31 March 2019) as follows: -
Surplus on company operations within unrestricted: £188,956 (2020: £532), deficit on company operations within restricted: £115,919 (2020: surplus of £15,698).

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 31 March 2021**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Company information**
Talawa Theatre Company is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales.
The registered office is Fairfield Halls, Park Lane, Croydon, CR9 1DG.
## **1.1 Accounting convention**
## **Basis of Preparation**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), published in September 2015. The Charitable Company is a public benefit entity for the purposes of FRS 102 and therefore the charity also prepared its financial statements in accordance with the 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 (The FRS 102 Charities SORP), the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.
## **1.2 Going Concern Basis**
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The company's ability to continue to trade in the long term is currently dependent on Arts Council Funding. Talawa is an Arts Council National Portfolio Organisation and had funding confirmed for the period 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2022. As a result of the Covid pandemic the Arts Council granted portfolio organisations the opportunity to apply for a 1 year extension to this funding period. Talawa has successfully applied for such an extension and has been awarded funding of £448,407 for the year ended 31 March 2023
The company has unrestricted net assets of £413,559, of which £159,000 has been designated. The directors consider that the company's reserves will be sufficient to cover deficits that may result from unanticipated costs of projects.
On this basis, the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.
## **1.3 Income**
All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.
## **1.4 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of the direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the assets used.

## **Talawa Theatre Company Limited**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
**For the year ended 31 March 2021**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)**
Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the company and include project management carried out at Headquarters. Support costs are allocated on a percentage basis as detailed in note 8.
Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the company's educational operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the company apportioned to charitable activities.
## **1.5 Tangible Fixed Assets**
All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised.
A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of financial activities incorporation income and expenditure account.
Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provisions for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following basis:
Office equipment
3 - 5 years straight line basis
## **1.6 Interest Receivable**
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.
## **1.7 Debtors**
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
## **1.8 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.
## **1.9 Liabilities and provisions**
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation.
## **1.10 Financial instruments**
The company 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 with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)**
## **1.11 Pensions**
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the company to the fund in respect of the year.
## **1.12 Fund accounting**
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
