25 Years of Groundbreaking Theatre
Over the past 25 years, Wild Rice has blazed a trail as Singapore’s leading theatre company. Through the theatre we make, we have proudly told our stories, championed our artists, and inspired young people and children.
- Since our founding in 2000, we have presented more than 170 productions, and entertained over a million audiences in Singapore and all over the world. Each year, the company presents up to 10 homegrown works, creating job opportunities for more than 500 freelance theatre professionals, ensuring a vibrant and sustainable local arts scene.
- Each year, our Youth & Education division inspires more than 5,000 students and young people through our unique programmes, including our Academy, Singapore Youth Theatre and Young & Wild.
- In 2019, we opened our performing arts complex at Funan, providing a home for Singapore theatre in the heart of Singapore’s civic district. With the benefit of operating our own independently-run space, we have expanded our outreach and accessibility initiatives to welcome audiences from all backgrounds – including those who are underprivileged, deaf, blind and neurodiverse – to our shows.
