Mission

La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club is dedicated to the artist and all aspects of the theatre. La MaMa builds audiences that are integral to the creative process. Our local and global community members who gather in our physical, digital, and hybrid spaces to see new work, are often the first audience for that work. The audience response helps to shape the evolution of the piece for the artist, and is an essential part of the creative ecosystem that La MaMa nurtures. La MaMa is the only original Off-Off-Broadway theatre still in operation.
