BOX CLEVER THEATRE COMPANY

writer-led touring theatre company creating contemporary issue-based theatre with and for young people. Recently extended its touring capacity with new work for venue touring. Also creates contemporary adaptations of curriculum set texts and offers specific teacher-training projects. Also participates in National Education linked conferences.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
