'Drama Centre was the key platform for local companies starting out in the early 1980s, staging Singapore plays like Lao Jiu, Army Daze and Mail Order Brides'.
Located in the National Library Building, Drama Centre is part of the bustling synergy made up of the surrounding arts facilities, attractions, educational institutions and commercial entities. With a theatre and black box, VIP lounge and function rooms, the performing arts space caters well to mid-sized theatrical productions, as well as talks and exhibitions.
The location of Drama Centre in the National Library building creates an unprecedented synergy with the arts facilities, attractions, institutions and the commercial sector to enliven the surrounding area.
