Have Your Say

We want to hear from you!

As you are probably aware, in light of recent funding decisions, La Mama will temporarily close its doors in 2025 to undertake a comprehensive review of its operations, vision, mission, and goals. The landscape has shifted dramatically over the past decade, and we are eager to adapt and thrive in this new environment.

Along with a survey which has been distributed far and wide, you are invited to a Community Forum which will be held live and online. We invite you to attend as part of the La Mama community to share your needs, hopes, and aspirations for our future. Your input is invaluable as we reimagine what La Mama can become. La Mama has always been a vital home for new Australian performance, with an undeniable legacy and a strong and vocal community. Now, we have an exciting opportunity to shape its next chapter together.

We’d love to hear your thoughts. Please help us envision the future of La Mama.

La Mama Connect: Have Your Say is both in-person and livestreamed.

La Mama Connect sessions are FREE but bookings are required.
