Nabil Shaban, together with Richard Tomlinson (who sadly died in 2006) created the Graeae Theatre Company in 1980, the world's first full-time professional theatre company of disabled people. By the end of 1980, Graeae had been filmed by many TV broadcast companies, and documentaries about both Nabil Shaban and Graeae were shown throughout 1981, as part of the celebration of the International Year of Disabled People. This video shows extracts from various of these TV programmes "Arena" - BBC2 television , "HELP" - Thames Televison) which include early performances and interviews with Nabil Shaban.
