Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
The Committee considered a report which set out a proposal to remove the Princess Theatre from contract clauses with performers at the Corn Exchange.
RESOLVED: That, as the Corn Exchange is operated by Alive West Norfolk on behalf of the borough council. Part 2 6(1) of the Articles of Association for Members reserved powers state ‘the members may, by special resolution, direct the directors to take, or refrain from taking, specified action’. The Shareholder Committee directs the Alive West Norfolk Board of directors to remove the reference to the Princess Theatre from the contract clauses.
Reason for Decision
Although the Princess Theatre is no longer operated by the borough council, it is important that the whole borough has access to the best performers which will enhance the arts and entertainment offer in the north of the borough. Amendment of the clause will enable the Princess Theatre to operate on a level playing field with other theatres within a 50-mile radius of the Corn Exchange.
