ABOUT SINGAPORE REPERTORY THEATRE
We are SRT.
We tell unforgettable stories, with scale and style.
We do this for everyone. Because we believe theatre is for everyone. For once a year, or once a week. Whether you’re eight years old, or eighty.
So there’s no one type of SRT performance.
One day, it’s a show the whole world is talking about. The next, a show they will be talking about. It’s an original musical, or reimagined classic. A child’s first visit. A date night. The start of an evening you’ll never forget.
What unites it all?
A passion for performance. A commitment to using theatre to teach vital, lifelong skills in our community. And the guarantee that when you spend time with SRT, the experience will be unmissable, unforgettable.
Everyone's welcome.
Singapore Repertory Theatre is supported by the National Arts Council under the Major Company Scheme for the period from 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2026.

KC ARTS CENTRE – HOME OF SRT
Electricity: In 2020, we have shifted to a carbon-neutral electricity supplier. We are constantly seeking to reduce our electricity consumption at the venue by changing how and when we work.
Plastic: We are limiting the use of plastic from our bar and productions and striving to eliminate single-use plastic in the bar.
Paper and other materials: We discontinued to print tickets in 2021 and print marketing materials only on recycled paper or FSC approved suppliers and promote the use of electronic versions of our show collaterals like flyers and programmes.
OUR PRODUCTIONS
We are learning from creative and other industries in Singapore and abroad on how we can best reduce the environmental impact of our productions. We do our best to work with local suppliers and we engage our suppliers to find environmentally friendly solutions and to ultimately build sets from sustainable and recycled materials.
OUR PATRONS
We will partner with organisations, who can help SRT and our patrons offset our carbon footprint in innovative and impactful ways.
