“The Nimrod safety play is a unique and clever way to tease out important safety lessons.”

“We have found the performances from ACT extraordinarily useful and valuable. To this contributes the quality of the script, the excellent performance of the actors, and Ms Flemings’s thought- provoking and careful guidance through the subjects, dilemmas, alternative decisions, perceptions and managements issues.”

CEO Commonwealth RegulatorARPANSA

“The feedback from the ARPANSA staff conference was overwhelmingly positive and the evaluation forms identified a number of ‘key lessons learned’ around security, communication, behaviour and management that were directly inspired by ACT’s performance.”
