Established in late 2005, the Black Arm Band – a Helpmann Award-winning company whose rotating line-up has included the likes of Archie Roach, Lou Bennett, Kutcha Edwards, Emma Donovan and Dan Sultan – is to cease trading this month.
The news was announced in an email from the organisation’s Board, which was sent to staff in early December.
