Productions at the theatre played to 90% capacity and War Horse at the New London achieved 97%. War Horse in the West End played to over 400,000, and it is now booking into Autumn 2012. Over 1.14m people have seen War Horse in London since opening in 2007. In April 2011, it opened at Lincoln Center Theater in New York City, selling over 240,000 tickets in the first four months. There were nine new plays and 21 new productions during the year. 53,000 people attended Watch This Space and 28,850 attended Platforms. 26,000 people took a backstage tour. The Habit of Art toured to nine venues, playing to nearly 50,000 people, and Hamlet to five (nearly 31,000). NT Learning’s production of Twelfth Night, adapted for primary school and family audiences, toured to Bristol Old Vic, Northampton Royal & Derngate Theatre, Warwick Arts Centre and to four schools in Liverpool, and was seen by 3,500 people. 9,850 children took part in the primary school programme and over 5,000 young people participated in Connections. 1,610 teachers and 250 youth theatre directors took part in professional development. In the NT Studio, £1.7m was spent on research and development and 24 attachments offered (17 writers, 3 directors and 4 others). In the international programme, a three-year collaboration with the Rustaveli Theatre in Georgia was completed this year, culminating in a production of Alecky Blythe’s Do We Look Like Refugees!? at the Edinburgh Fringe, which won a Fringe First and The Stage Award for Best Ensemble. The Studio’s principal international collaboration for the coming year will be a writers’ exchange with the Schauspielhaus in Frankfurt. The Studio now has five affiliated companies with which it works regularly: Ontroerend Goed, Made in China, Tangled Feet, Analogue and Theatre O. A surplus of £0.4m on unrestricted funds brings the balance on unrestricted reserves to £2.3m.
