■ THE successful restoration of La Mama Theatre following the devastating fire in May, 2018 is led by independent architect Meg White. As well as being an architect, Meg has worked for more than 25 years in theatre as a performer, designer and La Mama staff member. Her intimate knowledge of La Mama will ensure preservation of the theatre's spirit. The La Mama website explains the design which will restore the existing theatre building and allow construction of an entirely new structure that will sit in front of and perpendicular to the existing building, along the Shakahari wall. "The old building will be restored to honour its original, intimate self but with completely new 21st century facilities and technology. The size of the performance space will be unchanged, maintaining its mood, simplicity and magic. The internal staircase, trapdoor, fireplace and all the doors and windows - features which made La Mama theatre so unique - will be replaced. A new, second building will house the administration team, which will avoid the original arrangement of staff and artists previously sharing the crowded office/greenroom/dressingroom of the original La Mama.

Restoration follows devastating fire “The annex will allow for future organisational growth and the new building's ground floor rooms will provide rehearsal space for artists by day and an undercover foyer space for audiences by night,” says Ms White. - Cheryl Threadgold
