This link directs to a law firm's press release, and it is from their POV.
I'm not certain I'd call it a 'favorable' result. IMO. The production company went under; the rental theater is fund-raising to stay in business, and individuals (directors) were dragged through court proceedings over the course of a year.
Yikes!

In September 2018, Cyclone, Stiwt and their respective directors were faced with High Court proceedings, brought by entertainment giants, Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, and their music publishing arms, TCF Music Publishing Inc and Fox Film Music Corporation ('Fox'). This came after Cyclone performed its own version of Fox's "The Greatest Showman", set years after the events of the hit film, at the Stiwt Theatre last summer. The total ticket sales for the 7-performance production amounted to around £40,000.
Twentieth Century Fox not only issued a claim against Cyclone and Stiwt, but also their individual directors, which resulted in grave concerns for the individuals, as they would be personally liable. This caused all the defendants much distress over the course of a year, as any personal assets would be on the line.
As a result of the proceedings, Cyclone went under. Cyclone was a family business run by Stewart Bassett and his 25-year-old son, Sam.
Stiwt Arts Trust Limited, is a non-profit organisation, operating as a community arts centre in the small town of Rhosllannerchrugog, near Wrexham. It is a small theatre run by a handful of dedicated, hardworking employees and volunteers from the community, and is supported by the community as a whole. Gareth Thomas, 70, is a Director and Manager of the Stwit theatre. Rhys Davies is also a Manager of the Stwit theatre and was recovering from bowel cancer, but is now back in hospital. They were both made defendants in these proceedings by Fox, despite their limited involvement in the production.
The Defendants agreed to pay Fox the sum of £15,000 in damages...
Despite incurring significant costs themselves, the Defendants offered to pay £10,000 towards the Claimants' costs in order to bring this matter to a conclusion.
