In August 2017, Melbourne's La Mama Theatre celebrates 50 years since the premiere of its first production, Jack Hibberd's Three Old Friends.

La Mama commemorates the rich life story of the theatre so far, tracking the history and chronology of the work that has been made and the many careers that have been born, raised, and cherished there.

Complemented by hundreds of wonderful photographs, the book is woven together through a series of rowdy yarns spun by the La Mama community, capturing a sense of the magic that has been inspiring audiences for fifty years.
