The Theatre Practice (Practice) is Singapore’s longest-standing professional bilingual theatre institution. Artist-driven and deeply progressive, Practice strives to be an arts space in Singapore that consciously nurtures and empowers people who care about humanity. Over the past 55 years, we have developed and presented over 350 productions that aim to reflect the richness and complexities of Singapore’s diverse cultures. 
 
Today, we carry on the work of our visionary co-founders and cultural medallion recipients, Kuo Pao Kun and Goh Lay Kuan. Under the helm of current Artistic Director Kuo Jian Hong, Practice continues to shape Singapore’s cultural landscape as the definitive voice in Singapore theatre. Jian Hong is deeply influenced by the importance of play in art-making and under her leadership, Practice has become the embodiment of the irrepressible spirit and fearless experimentation of play.
 
As pioneers in Arts Education in Singapore, Practice has been instrumental both in nurturing leaders in the Singapore arts scene, and inculcating a love for the arts in generations of Singapore youth. Since its inception in 1965, nurturing and empowering people has been the core of Practice. Outstanding individuals whom we have mentored include actress and two-time Golden Horse Award winner Yeo Yann Yann, Chairman and CEO of Creative Technology Sim Wong Hoo, and jazz vocalist, musical theatre actress, TV host and 2nd runner-up in Sing! China, Joanna Dong.
 
The Theatre Practice is supported by the National Arts Council under the Major Company Scheme. Practice is also an Institution of Public Character and a member of the Singapore Chinese Language Theatre Alliance.
