The Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre<br />
by Stephen Yim, Chia Kah Leong<br />
The Kuala Lumpur Performing<br />
Arts Centre (PentasSeni KL) is<br />
fast becoming the hub for the<br />
performing arts community,<br />
fostering creative excellence<br />
through the development and<br />
nurturing of performing arts<br />
culture.<br />
Main Theatre Pentas1<br />
A not-for-profit organisation, the<br />
Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts<br />
Centre is designed to meet the<br />
needs of an ever more demanding<br />
and diverse performing arts scene<br />
in Malaysia. Located in the midst<br />
of parkland and lakes in Sentul Park,<br />
the arts centre is located only 10<br />
minutes from a railway station and<br />
20 minutes by car from the city<br />
centre.<br />
The complex comprises a 504 seat<br />
proscenium theatre, a 200 seat<br />
experimental black box, the IndiCine<br />
for independent film makers; an<br />
onsite set construction workshop,<br />
an academy with 10 studios, and<br />
much more.<br />
KLPac collaborates with companies<br />
from around the world on a regular<br />
basis. They also work closely with<br />
organisations such as the British<br />
Council, The Japan Foundation<br />
and the cultural sections of many<br />
foreign missions to bring overseas<br />
productions to the Malaysian stage.<br />
The founding partners in the<br />
complex are Yayasan Budi Penyayang<br />
Malaysia, YTL Corporation and The<br />
Actors Studio.<br />
Penyayang’s role in the newly<br />
formed KL Performing Arts Centre/<br />
PentasSeni KL is in keeping with<br />
their objective of assisting the<br />
promotion of cultural heritage and<br />
the arts. Datin Paduka Seri Endon<br />
