72-13 is the new home of TheatreWorks. A converted rice warehouse, the new space is flexible enough to be a gallery, a cinema and a theatre (capacity of 250). Its primary purpose will be to encourage collaborations, house residencies from artists around the world and to encourage hybrid creative expressions from young Singaporeans. In line with the move, TheatreWorks expands to include the International Centre of Asian Arts (ICAA) and Singapore Creative Arts Nucleus (SCAN). In its new premises, TheatreWorks continues its important Eduction and Outreach (E & 0) as well as its Writers Lab.

With LaChambre singularly suggesting the major characters, our landing pad is far away from any preconceived space, time, or identity.
