Watch: Australian troupe of neurodiverse theatre actors set for European tour


By AGENCY

In a quiet room in the southeast Australian town of Geelong, a group of actors with disabilities has gathered to rehearse for their first shows since winning a coveted award for the arts that is likened to a Nobel prize for theatre.

Back To Back Theatre is the only Australian company ever to have won the 2.5 million Norwegian kroner (US$266,000, RM1.2mil) International Ibsen Award, with the selection committee saying they had "created some of the most memorable productions of 21st century theatre".
