Bangalee's are deeply rooted with cultural activities as they inherit a rich cultural heritage. In transformation from agro- economic society to a mixed urban facility, bangalee's kept their cultural activities alive through constant and continuous practice and performances. It is impossible to find bangalee community in this globe, where they are non-interactive.

Like any other civilized community, fundamental cultural actives of bangalee community are songs, dances and ‘’Adda’’. Gradually these activities are extended to drama, recitation and different avenues of literatures. In Melbourne bangalee’s had it all. But with significantly increasing Bengalee migrants, it became necessary to extend more rooms for community’s cultural activities with matured and professional perspectives.

In the case of drama and stage plays, Melbourne was blessed and dominated with amateur but devoted personalities. As time flows, it was felt to transform amateur drama activities to a broader horizon, wherein learned, committed and devoted personalities should combine their skill and expertise.

Fortunately, drama activists with overall experience in all the sub-sectors of stage play and drama literature were already migrants here. But they were scatted and were trying to contribute to community through individual efforts. With importance of united effort to contribute more significantly, Melbourne Bangla Theatre Inc. was formed in March 2005 with a motto "Building Home, Away Home".
