Established 40 years ago in 1981, Temple of Fine Arts (TFA) is a Performing Arts Institution born out of a need to make the Indian fine arts more accessible and relevant to a new generation.

TFA Lalita Kala Company (TFALKC) was started in 2004 as the performing arts wing of TFA. For over 35 years, TFALKC has produced a variety of shows with a focus on showcasing traditional Indian music and dance.

Having spearheaded the concept of large-scale productions in Singapore, TFALKC is constantly re-evaluating how it can transport audiences with immersive art experiences, whether through comprehensive sets, elaborate costumes, original music, or multimedia art. We do not charge a fixed admission fee for all our productions as we want to share our passion for the arts, and believe in giving people from all walks of life access to the same. TFALKC has placed a greater emphasis on making the traditional art forms more accessible to both our local audiences, as well as to the younger generations.

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our engagements from live performances & commissioned work. Your support will help us with administrative expenses, sustain artists and enable us to continue serving the community.

With a focus in traditional Indian music and dance, for more than 35 years, TFALKC has produced a variety of shows, ranging from legendary dance dramas such as Ramayana (2012) and The Rajput Princess (2016) to modern and locally relatable ones such as Premanadi - the river of love (2018) with original music compositions to name a few.

Having spearheaded the concept of large-scale productions in Singapore, TFALKC is constantly re-evaluating how it can transport audiences with immersive art experiences, be it through comprehensive sets, intricate backdrops, elaborate costumes, large casts or detailed storylines.We also spotlight Indian Classical music (Taal Express 2013 ; Hrydaya, 2019 etc) and Traditional Indian dance styles (Stree Purusa, 2016 ; Anugamanam, 2018) separately.

Through Shantanjali Festival of Arts (SFA), which we host annually, we engage with local singaporean artists of all disciplines and bring arts to the communityThe era of digital performance creates a new opportunity for us to grow and reach out to a wider audience and adapt to the changing times. Not only do digital productions allow us to broaden our thinking by conceptualising ideas with new boundaries, it also brings us closer to our audience, allowing us to bring the arts to their homes, to continue making traditional art forms relatable and easily accessible to the community.
