Wild Rice @ Funan

Wild Rice Theatre isn’t just a stage – it’s one of Singapore’s most daring cultural engines. Founded in 2000 by actor-director Ivan Heng, the company set out to shake up the local theatre scene with bold, proudly Singaporean storytelling. Today, its home at Funan is a sleek, purpose-built space with an intimate, all-welcome vibe that keeps audiences feeling close to the action.

Wild Rice is known for championing original voices and reimagining classics with a cheeky, contemporary twist, with landmark productions like Hotel, Emily of Emerald Hill, and The Importance of Being Earnest. More than just entertainment, the company consistently tackles social issues with wit and warmth, making theatre feel both fun and necessary. If you want to see Singapore’s creative pulse up close, this is where it beats loudest.
