SINGAPORE – The Esplanade’s new mid-sized venue will be inaugurated in October with a festival headlined by the best and brightest in Singapore’s arts scene.

The Singtel Waterfront Theatre, a much-anticipated flexible space, is the first new standalone building purpose-built for the performing arts since the Esplanade itself opened in 2002.
