Annotation of Budget list - Midsummer Night Dream




Programme sales, didn’t sell any because non were made, saved cash.
Venue hire -  Funding in kind
Performing rights – Didn’t have to pay a penny because this being a shake sphere play and the writer is now deceased.
Initially more money was spent on Publicity, Set and Props but managed to save money on Sound/lights and other technical areas, costumes and make up, this could be explained by the clothing being handmade and the set/props not being provided by the theatre unlike the sound and lights which the venue might have already had and allowed them to use.
The savings on the programme printing make me think that they ended up not making any programmes or that they were made out of the production budget.
They planned to spend around £30 on other additions to the production but managed to not spend a dime, this almost balances out the things they did over spend on such as the Set and Props.

Although they predicted to make a profit of only £392.17 the production much have no only cost less also created a larger profit of £788.37 through mainly ticket sales in which they managed to sell another £400 worth of tickets then initially expected.
