Charting the history of the MAC from the wartime appeal for a memorial to Reginald Mitchell through to its opening in 1957 and on through 60 years of plays, shows and festivals - celebrated by many societies and individuals closely linked to the Mitch. The famous Spitfire pilot Douglas Bader's speech is included when he officially opened the building in October 1957. There are lots of pictures and reminiscences to enjoy from the era when Amateur Drama was prolific here, and we conclude with a photo-montage of the work done to regenerate the building into The Mitchell Arts Centre e have today.
