Singapore Chinese Dance Theatre (SCDT) was founded in 1990 by Founding Artistic Director Madam Lim Moi Kim. The company started out as an avocational troupe offering Chinese dance training for passionate learners.

 

Over the years, the troupe put up many outstanding works that have left an indelible impression on its audiences both locally and abroad. In recognition of its enduring influence in the local arts scene, SCDT received support from the National Arts Council and officially became a professional dance company in 2014.

 

Currently led by Artistic Director Madam Neo Jenny, SCDT envisions itself to be a professional dance company that epitomises the promotion of Chinese dance through artistic and creative excellence, as well as nurturing young, promising dancers to continue its efforts.
