We love the theatre! Here's where we keep track of all the upcoming theatre shows, concerts, musicals and events for kiddos happening throughout the year.
Looking for kids’ theatre shows in Singapore? I am obsessed with taking my kids to see musicals, plays, and performances, so it’s my job to list out the best shows in Singapore for the whole family to enjoy. Not only do big productions, gorgeous costumes, and lively tunes enthral the kids (and offer up insta-worthy pics of the day out!), theatre experiences create cultural awareness, an appreciation for the arts, and most importantly, everlasting memories for the whole fam.
Seeing a live musical or concert is also an excellent opportunity to inspire your little aspiring thespian or musician to get into the performing arts. Plus, escaping to the theatre is a perfect thing to do with the kids when the weather’s bogging you down. Here’s a rundown of what to expect this year – check back regularly for real-life reviews when the shows open. Make sure you bookmark this list, as I add new shows when they are released every month!

9. Dear Evan Hansen on sale now [Advisory 16]


Deep issues facing our teens today are the theme of this acclaimed musical, packed with some of the biggest musical theatre songs of the last decade. The story follows Evan, an anxious high school kid who wants nothing more than to fit in. On his way to fitting in, he didn’t tell the whole truth, and now he must give up on a life he never dreamt he’d have. As events spiral and the truth comes out, Evan faces a reckoning with himself and everyone around him. We love that for this production, in the spirit of Dear Evan Hansen and its powerful message of connection, there’ll be a special seating category for single theatre goers. ‘You Are Not Alone’ is a dedicated section of 56 seats reserved exclusively for solo ticket holders. Coming to the theatre alone should feel just as welcoming and exciting as coming with a group. So take a seat, enjoy the show, and mingle with fellow theatre lovers when flying solo!

13. The Emperor’s New Clothes
Once upon a time, in a kingdom not so far away, ruled a vain and pompous Emperor who was crazy about his clothes, himself and little else. So obsessed with fashion was he that he decreed that the 60th anniversary of his reign be celebrated with the most extravagant National Dress Parade of all time, with him at the centre of all the pomp and pageantry. One day, two cheeky tailors discover a dark secret in the Emperor’s palace and decide to teach him a lesson. Presenting the Emperor with an eye-popping ensemble literally woven out of thin air, they convince him that only the smartest and most competent people in the land can see it.
What can be done to stop the nation’s biggest wardrobe malfunction? Why won’t the Emperor’s courtiers and the aristocracy speak up? Is there anyone who’s brave enough to tell the naked truth?
When: 13 November – 14 December 2025
Where: The Emperor’s New Clothes, Wild Rice Theatre, Funan. Tickets from $45 – $105.
