Principal activityThe principal activity of the company during the year continued to be the promotion of education and performancein the arts and in particular theatre. The company trades under the name "Complicite".

Objectives and activities for the public benefitIn shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the trustees have considered the CharityCommission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

To advance education by establishing, promoting, equipping, organising and managing educational workshopsin the promotion of the theatre of the arts.

To present/promote the production of plays, operas, variety performances, concerts, dramatic, musical andartistic performances and exhibitions for the public benefit.

The charity's general aim is to contribute to the quality, vitality and creativity of the performing arts, especiallytheatre, through the excellence and inventiveness of its work. To achieve this and remain at the forefront of UKtheatre it makes performance, digital and participatory work, educational initiatives, and professional developmentopportunities that defy expectations, and continues to seek out new audiences and new ways of engaging thoseaudiences.

"Internationally recognized as one of the great theatremakers and theatre-changers of our time" ScotsmanTo support this strategy, and as detailed in its three year business plan, Complicity worked towards the followingkey objectives for delivery in 2016/17:- Raise F90k from trusts and foundations and 754k from individual donors— Increase online subscribers to all platforms by 10%- Present productions in 4 UK cities outside of London- Produce 'A Pacifist's Guide to the War on Cancer'- Appoint a second artist to the Complicity Associates programme— Raise f30k to support further development of The Embodying Mathematics Project- Recruit eight schools to the second year of the Complicity Schools Network- Appoint a trustee with experience in Creative Media to the Board of Trustees- A series of digital teaching resources published and accessed by 3,000 people— 80% of all crew and cast travel by train to UK venues- Switch to a green electricity supplier— Programme inclusive workshop for disabled and non-disabled theatremakers- Trial The Difference Engine at 2 UK performances and collect feedback

Trustees' Report

85% of these objectives were achieved and many were far exceeded. These included raising 23% more funding;

reaching 44% more online subscribers; 63% more digital teaching resources being accessed and a 150%increase in the number of venues that trialed The Difference Engine. Seven of eight schools were recruited tothe Complicite Schools Network (see Creative Learning page 3) and due to competing costs the switch to a greenelectricity supplier has been postponed until 2017/18. The company has created plans to meet any outstandingobjectives by March 2018. Further details are included in the Creative Learning and Performance sections of this

report.

2016/17 was a successful year, both artistically and financially, with 131,951 people seeing the company's work

live, 67,000 watching its first live-streamed production and more than 4,000 taking part in Creative Learning

activity.

Creative Learning achievementsStories M Mother Told Me

Work with refugees, which began with Terrestrial Journeys in 2015, continued when Complicity teamed up with

Migrant Help to run theatre workshops during Refugee Week. Following this, the company was supported by

London Metropolitan University to run a five-day workshop for a new project Stories My Mother Told Me. The

workshop aimed to provide a creative meeting point for existing and new members of the community and to

foster a supportive, open space where people who had recently arrived in the UK might engage with the arts and

express themselves in different ways. Together they explored physical and ensemble storytelling skills, and

learnt to devise and improvise. The workshop was so successful that the company aims to develop it further to

culminate in public performances.

"This week I felt free, like I could fly. It has been the best week since I arrived in London a year ago" Sonia, from

Iran

Embod in Mathematics Pro'ect EMP

EMP has social justice at its core, using the theatrical idea of the ensemble to foster the classroom learning

community, and centring on activities that require the class to master learning together. The voices of pupils and

teachers have been key to its development throughout, with several stages of evaluation and redesign.

"It's a safer place to be for children who find maths difficult. They learn from each other, they' re not on their own"

Teacher

Year 2 of the EMP saw the curriculum being taught in eight Sheffield and London schools. Focus was on data

gathering from this test year after which Sheffield Hallam University will evaluate and report on the impact of the

project on academic attainment. The results will be available in early 2018, with the plan to take the work to a

large scale Randomised Control Trial in the following years.

Complicite's Associate Producer received an Impact Fellowship from Sheffield Hallam University, to embark on

an offshoot research project into what makes creative projects attractive to schools. Working towards this,

teachers and staff members were interviewed at Mulberry School for Girls, Hampstead School and the Barbican.

The project has been supported by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation and the John Lyon's Charity.

Com licite Schools Network CSN

CSN, now in its third year, fosters sustained and meaningful relationships with schools that access its learningprogrammes. Seven of its target eight schools were recruited and 128 students involved. Five of the membersare Artsmark accredited, and another is halfway through the application process and says:

"Working with Complicity is a big part of our Artsmark application. . .The work in the CPD has helped my teachingpractice and I have used a number of the activities in my GCSE and A Level lessons. "

Teachers from participating schools attended a day-long Continuing Professional Development workshop toexamine how best to teach the company's methods.

W~orksho sDuring the year the company reached 2112 participants in 213 workshops from primary school children to adults,that included Approaches to Devising, Approaches to Text, Chorus 8 Storytelling, Physical Theatre, PerformanceSkills and Clowning.

The objective to programme an inclusive workshop for disabled and non-disabled theatremakers was realisedwith a 6-week residency at inclusive organisation Magpie Dance."All members of the group showed an increase and improvement in technical and creative skills. Since theproject, the dancers have implemented many physical theatre techniques when choreographing new work andhave been keen to use technology in subsequent pieces. "

Co-founder Marcello Magni led a five day Open Workshop: From Nothing All Appears. 22 adult theatremakersfrom all over the world took part in the workshop, which explored themes from Paulo Coelho's novel TheAlchemist.

Seen and Not Heard SANH

A participatory performance project for young people aged 12-16 developed from drama and photographyworkshops in 2015/16. Exploring their experiences of photography, social media and the internet, a group ofyoung people devised a performance installation including a fully functioning photographic studio, through whichthe audience moved. While posed, styled and photographed by the young performers, the audience heard abouttheir online lives. The piece was performed at artsdepot and the Southbank Centre, London, as part of WHY:What's Happening for Young People? Festival, where it was described by audiences as "beautiful, funny and a bitheart-breaking" and "a very insighfful commentary on the challenges of being young in the digital age - as told byyoung people. "

The John Lyon's Charity supported the show.

Like Mother Like Dau hter LMLD

LMLD reinforces the company's desire to ensure that diversity is at the heart of its artistic programme. Followingits success in 2015/16 the company was invited to recreate the show with local mothers and daughters inToronto, Canada at the Koffler Center for the Arts. 24 women took part, hailing from Pakistan, Venezuela, thePhilippines and Syria. 360 people saw the show and shared a meal afterwards, with a reviewer writing: "Full, richand fascinating. . . connection, community, catharsis: these are some of the best things theatre can bring and thisshow offers all of them.

Trustees' Report

Carnival Journe sComplicite was commissioned by the V 8 A to celebrate the opening of their new Europe 1600-1815 gallery. A

performance with local adults not in employment was created with company practitioners over 12 weeks, inspired

by the objects in the gallery, the traditions of Commedia dell'Arte and the participants' own stories of journeys.The piece was performanced as part of the Kensington and Chelsea Borough Festival.

A Studio SeasonThree directors that have long-standing relationships with Complicity created three short plays with students atthe Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. Each play provided a unique portrait of the company's evolution,

tracing the shifts and changes that have marked its body of work, one of which will be developed for a schools'

tour in autumn 2017.

OtherTrade Secrets —a new initiative to introduce theatre to people who have never been before. Working with

Project Alchemy, which connects arts organisations with unemployed or low-income adult. Complicite staff have

committed to sharing free tickets they are regularly offered.Arts Award - Complicity worked to make its offer more coherent and had success with a student working with a

company associate director to achieve her Silver Arts Award. The company is keen to engage more applicants in

the future.

Performance AchievementsCom licite Associates 8 A Pacifist's Guide to the War on Cancer

The Associates programme, designed to support the career development of exceptional performance makers,

yielded its first production, A Pacifist's Guide to the War on Cancer (APG). Writer/director Bryony Kimmings said

"This unbelievable commission allowed me to take the almost impossible step from small-scale theatre to

large-scale in a safe, supported and positive environment. That kind of opportunity to dream big has literally

changed my life. "

APG toured to HOME, Manchester, Exeter Northcott and transferred to the National Theatre's Dorfman. It was

seen by nearly 17,000 people and described as "a vital confrontation, extraordinary" (Observer). The production

confronted taboos surrounding illness and death, sparking emotional reactions and audience debate. It was an

opportunity for the company to reach a younger audience, with 37% of audiences at the National Theatre aged

under 34 (compared to 29% at The Encounter at the Barbican). 21% also represented people on the lowest

income bracket and 12% of the audience considered themselves to have a disability.

APG also involved cancer patients in each city, reached through local hospitals and support groups. Ticket offers

were extended to local healthcare providers and networks, including 120 free tickets given to staff and client

groups from Macmillan and Maggie's Cancer Care.

In addition a number of events were programmed including 6 pre and post show discussions; a day-long event for

A Level and HE drama students; a Platform event with writer/director Bryony Kimmings; a writing workshop for 14

teenage cancer patients; three captioned performances; an audio described performance and a touch tour.

The EncounterThis production continued to be in exceptionally high demand abroad and toured for 30 weeks to 11 international

venues including a 16-week run on Broadway. It also marked the company's first visit to New Zealand, where the

Auckland Arts Festival Director wrote:

"Encounter was a true centerpiece for the festival. It is an absolute masterpiece and I am delighted that after so

many years we were finally able to bring Complicite to New Zealand. "

Trustees' Report

This co-production between Complicite and Schaubuhne Berlin had 23 performances to 11,416 people in Berlinand London.

The Kid Sta s in the Picture

Based on the life of Hollywood producer Robert Evans, this production directed by Simon McBurney and in

association with Complicite played a sold out season at the Royal Court, where it was seen by over 7,500 peopleand received excellent reviews.

Other ProductionsThe company continues to support revivals of work directed by Simon McBurney, including operas A Dog's Heart,The Rake's Progress and The Magic Flute. This includes arranging auditions and research and development.

Research & DevelopmentBristol-based collective The Wardrobe Ensemble will be the next Complicite Associates. A young group ofactors, musicians and devisers, they have gained a reputation for exciting small scale touring work and spent aweek with the company to explore new ideas.

The company has acquired the rights to adapt the novel Grief is the thing with Feathers by Max Porter. In

January the company worked with renowned director Enda Walsh to explore the possibilities of adapting it for thestage.

OtherAccessCaptioned performances of The Encounter, A Pacifist's Guide to the War on Cancer, Beware of Pity and The KidStays in the Picture took place, along with six touch tours and two audio-described performances, ensuring Deaf,hearing and visually impaired audiences were able to access the company's productions.

The Difference Engine was trialed at five UK venues and feedback collected. Although taken up by hearingimpaired audiences it is still in its early stages of development and not necessarily the tool that Complicite will usegoing forward. The requirement for individuals to access it on their mobile phones, and in any seat, meant that itprovided some distraction for those audience members sitting nearby. Complicity will continue to evaluate themost effective way of reaching Deaf and hearing impaired audiences.

Diversity

In casting APG, Complicity proactively sought performers from protected characteristics groups, with greatsuccess. Alongside its theatrical output, Creative Learning activity ensures that diversity is at the heart of theartistic programme. Participatory projects focus on a range of groups, including: workshops for a mixed group ofrefugees and professional actors; The Wait, which used prisoners' testimonies and artworks to explore corruptionin Pakistan's criminal justice system; and LMLD for mothers and daughters from different religious backgrounds.

stream in early 2016 the company invested in and expanded its digital output, including a series of 22 free online

videos charting the development and production of A Pacifist's Guide to the War on Cancer, and reaching beyondtraditional theatregoers. Beware of Pity was also live streamed and the company repeated its innovative 'embed

partner' model to make connections with venues where live touring might not be possible. One viewer said "First

Encounter, now this. I can't tell you how grateful I am to Complicity for making your work available to those of uswho can't afford tickets to see it live.

"

187,034 people viewed the live stream of Beware of Pity, via Facebook and YouTube. Supported by 14-18 NOW

Trustees' Report

A ointment and trainin of TrusteesTrustees are selected for their areas of expertise and knowledge of specific disciplines, and are proposed by

current members of the board. On appointment trustees are provided with a Board Induction pack, which

outlines the function of the Board, the company's financial position and current and future programme. Trusteesare offered training as required and appropriate to their role.

EcCualitit

Complicity will provide equality of opportunity and equal treatment as an integral part of good practice. Its

practices will ensure that staff, workers, trustees, and customers will not be discriminated against on any groundsincluding age, disability, race, sex, religion or cultural beliefs, gender reassignment, marital status and civil

partnerships, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity.

It will also support staff, workers, trustees and contractors in not tolerating any inappropriate, violent or abusivebehaviour from colleagues, other organisations or customers.

Fair and E ual Pa Polic

Complicite is committed to the principle of fair and equal pay and to working with trade unions to take action to

promote and implement fair and equal pay. As a member of UK Theatre it adheres to agreements with BECTU,

Equity, SOLT, the Writers' Guild of GB and other relevant trade unions and associations with regards salaries,

fees and subsistence. Complicity recognises that women and men in the workforce should receive equal pay for

work of equal value and that this principle is enshrined in both UK and European law. It aims to ensure that its

pay system is free of bias. Fairness and equality across gender, age, race and disability are integral to its values

and send a positive message on diversity and equality to managers, employees, potential employees, partners

and customers and enhance productivity, efficiency and morale.

Risk Mana ement

The trustees have analysed and sought to quantify the major operational risks the company faces in meeting its

objectives. The major risks identified are:

Development risk - not all development work proves to be artistically fruitful. The company needs to be able to

fund development that will not lead to income-generating production projects. It can also take many years for

projects to come to fruition.

Overhead risk - in order to maintain the company's record of exceptional quality and creative success, the

company needs to hold sufficient reserves to be able to sustain its ongoing overheads without being compelled to

embark on productions in which there is not sufficient creative confidence to proceed.

Technical risk - Simon McBurney's ambitious artistic vision is now at the forefront of theatre technology. The

company often finds itself seeking to use novel and innovative production techniques, with the attendant risk of

schedule disruption and cost overruns.

Financial risk - the company's productions are conceived at a high level of creative ambition, which means the

company typically has to finance a deficit on the initial run of a new production. This is particularly true if the

show is devised by the company and therefore requires a lengthy preparation period, rather than being based on

an existing text. These deficits are only recouped in the event that the show is successful and revived as atouring production.

Touring risk - the company tours most of its productions, and in doing so faces the risk that venues may cancel

at little notice or have difficulty in paying the company's fees.

Fundraising risk —the next National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) funding round for April 2018 to March 2022

has opened with decisions made in July 2017.

Trustees' Report

Staff risk - Simon McBurney and Judith Dimant have been with the company for 34 and 23 years respectively.It is vital that the company's sustainability does not rely on individuals, but equally vital that these impressivelylongstanding contributors play a role in shaping its future. Any change in the senior management team poses arisk and this is being managed by supporting and developing the skills of current staff, in particular the Producerand Assistant Producer, who could step in if necessary. The company continues to expand its pool of artists whomake work under the Complicity banner, which should leave it in a strong position for the future.

Financial ReviewThe company is reporting a surplus of F219,051 on a turnover of F2,219,554. It reached a total reserves level off1,654,421. The principal source of funding continued to be from Arts Council England, which was f363,622 andrepresented 16% of total income.

Income from touring productions represented 62% of total income and increased significantly from 2015/16 dueto increased activity.

Fundraising targets were exceeded with f95,200 raised from trusts and foundations (target 590k) and f82, 521(target 254k) from individual donors.

Management fees are received when Complicity acts as producer during the research and development phase ofa production and for subsequent touring. Fees were considerably higher this year due to receiving a weeklymanagement fee during the Broadway run of The Encounter.

A significant growth in overseas touring, including The Encounter on Broadway, increased the company'soverseas income to 61% of total performance fees/box office (15% in 2016).

Complicity is grateful to Arts Council England, The John Ellerman Foundation, the Paul Hamlyn Foundation andthe John Lyon's Charity, the biggest supporters this year.

The Trustees review the company's reserves policy in detail on a regular basis. In doing so, they seek to make arealistic assessment of the company's requirements in the light of planned future activities and expenditures,likely income levels and the major operational risks outlined above. The Trustees consider it prudent to maintaindesignated reserves under five headings:

- Building reserve F300,000 - to carry out the preliminary work required to acquire a suitable building ie. propertysearch/undertake survey/fund a deposit.

Production reserve F400,000 - to underwrite new production/large-scale projects where future exploitation isunknown.

— Research 8, Development reserve 6100,000 — to enable un-budgeted research 8 development to take placewhen required at any time during the financial year.— Education reserve f100,000 - to enable large-scale education projects to be realised beyond those budgetedduring the financial year.- Development of Associates F90,648 - to support development and training for company collaborators and thedevelopment of work by company associates.

If we become aware of any apparentmaterial misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.

1. Accounting policies

1.1. Basis of preparing the financial statementsThe financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting byCharities: 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 (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Companies Act 2006.

The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities areinitially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevantaccounting policy notes.

The company and its subsidiary comprise a small group. The company has taken advantage of theexemption provided by Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare group financialstatements.

The financial statements present information about it as an individual undertaking and not about itsgroup.

1.2. Reconciliation with previous Generally Accepted Accounting PracticeIn preparing the accounts, the Trustees have considered whether in applying the accounting policiesrequired by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 the restatement of comparative items wasrequired.

There was no requirement for restatement.

incoming resources of restricted funds when receivable.

- Donated services and facilitiesDonated services or facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item,

any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from

the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. On

receipt, donated services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the

equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in

expenditure in the period of receipt.
