The Actors’ Company was a co-operative theatre company formed by a group of actors and directors in Sydney, Australia in 1975. It was the first serious attempt at a professional co-operative theatre in that city. The company's name was inspired by The Actors’ Company founded by Ian McKellen and Edward Petherbridge in the UK in 1972. (The title was again used for an ensemble of actors created by The Sydney Theatre Company which functioned between 2006 and 2008.) == History == Between 1975 and 1979, the company staged more than 40 productions at various venues in Sydney, many of which then toured New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia.〔 Copy in Mitchell Library.〕 The company was established in late 1974 by four actors and directors – Rodney Delaney, Matthew O'Sullivan, Betty Cheal and Lynne Porteous. The fledgling company, with Rodney Delaney and Matthew O'Sullivan as co-artistic directors, secured, for their opening productions, the building in King’s Cross that had been the Nimrod St. Theatre, the Nimrod company having moved to their new space in Belvoir St. Surrey Hills. The Nimrod St Theatre had been renamed The Loft. (Currently home to the Griffin Theatre Company, it is now known as the Stables Theatre.) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Actors' Company」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
