SPANISH THEATRE COMPANY

We advance the arts for the public benefit by the promotion of the arts, primarily but not exclusively by the promotion of the dramatic art of Spain and Latin America. Our activities include original bilingual productions of classic and contemporary works of Spanish-language theatre, dramatized readings, bilingual acting workshops for youth, and educational outreach through school productions.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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 and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
