From performing in streets and gardens, to helping more than half a million young people with their learning and finally welcoming audiences back inside our theatres, this was a big year for us.
Today we published our Annual Review for the 2021-2022 financial year, a celebration of everything we have achieved during this period as we began to return to normal after the pandemic.
During 2021-2022, the impact of Covid-19 on all areas of our work continued. Everybody adapted at speed to new ways of working. Whether streaming learning activity or events, providing take-away catering service or building an open-air theatre to perform to the widest possible audience, we are extremely proud of the part that everyone in our working community played.
We also used the year to strengthen our links with local communities. We partnered with Coventry City of Culture to co-create Faith, a 24-hour series of events in the city including four new plays directed by Acting Artistic Director Erica Whyman.
On stage, Matilda The Musical celebrated its 10th anniversary in the West End. In our creative spaces, our world class costume workshop underwent a major redevelopment.
