Centre 42 is small - small team, small spaces, small works. From a small blue house on Waterloo Street, we have grown to be home to more than 170 artists and theatre collectives, supported the development of over 200 new theatrical projects, and brought theatre magic to more than 40,000 audiences.

But if 2020 has shown us anything, it's that the smallest things can have the largest impact. Our #smallwaysC42 fundraising campaign in 2020 saw our community pool efforts together to help raise funds for the next leg of C42's work, in fun and fulfilling ways!

WE NEED YOUR HELP TO CONTINUE GROWING THE THEATRE SCENE.

Every contribution enables us to continue developing Singapore's theatre ecosystem through our myriad of programmes and initiatives that supports independent artists and arts groups. As a direct grant recipient of the National Arts Council for FY2020-22, we are funded partially for our work. We still need to raise at least 45% of our annual operations costs in order to sustain year on year.

Centre 42 is a non-profit theatre development space committed to the creation, documentation and promotion of text-based works for the Singapore stage. Our mission is to:
- nurture talent and incubate content of text-based works for the stage;
- build public awareness and appreciation for Singapore theatre; and
- be a focal point for research, documentation and critical discourse on the development of Singapore theatre.

WE NEED YOUR HELP TO CONTINUE OUR WORK IN THIS UNCERTAIN TIMES OF THE PANDEMIC.

In May 2020, we returned 42 Waterloo Street, our home since 2014. We've not only lost spaces for our artists and programmes, but also an important source of rental income. With the arts sector adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, many arts-workers and companies are trying our best to survive financially. We hope to continue in the small ways we can, to offer avenues of creation, documentation and training workshops and presentations that will sustain the livelihoods and spirits of our art-making community.

For 2021, we're rolling out new plans comprising artist residency schemes to develop artistic practices and engage with theatre histories; a revamped digital archive for Singapore theatre history; and more activities to promote our local theatre to the public.
