La Mama Theatre was established in 1967 to nurture new Australian theatre and has played an important role in the development of the Australian dramatic voice. It has been committed to a diversity of artistic approach, to innovation and to exploring minority as well as general concerns. A vital space and prolific production house, La Mama has given initial exposure to a large number of playwrights, directors, actors, technicians as well as poets, musicians, performance artists and experimental film makers. A cosy, intimate theatre space with an open fire in winter and the opportunity to have (free) coffee with writers, directors, actors and La Mama staff after the show.
