Résumé :
As the company becomes 30 years old, and with founders getting long in the tooth, it seemed appropriate to create an archive to celebrate the company’s diverse history before it is lost in the sands of time. A couple of years ago the creative directors started to talk about the early years, the people and the shows and frankly couldn’t remember very much of what went on, and we realised, to build the whole picture it was going to be a long process, we’d need to involve a lot of ex performers and crew and we’d need lots of volunteers to help us. The archive project was born.

In January 2015 we started a year-long project to archive the company’s history and heritage. We contacted all the performers and crew past and present and asked them to go through their draws to find artefacts, film, photos and documentation and recorded them telling their stories. Over 200 current and ex nofitstate members have been involved in this process. [company summary]
