National Theater Company of Korea
|
The National Theater Company of Korea (NTC Korea) is one of the nation’s flagship theater companies with the longest history of 65 years. Its inaugural production was Won Sul Lang – The General’s Son in April 1950. In 2010, in its 60th anniversary year, NTC Korea separated from the National Theater of Korea, the umbrella organization of national performing arts companies, and set out on a new journey as an independently incorporated foundation with two studio theater spaces in Seogye-dong, Seoul.
The year 2015 marked another historical moment for NTC Korea, as it announced its Season Company of seventeen talented actors and returned to its original home Myeongdong Theater (558 seats) located in the metropolis center, where it had enjoyed years of glory from 1957 to 1975 as the mecca of the nation’s performing arts. Now as the nation’s largest producing theater, operating three theater spaces, NTC Korea is ready to be an international center for drama, embracing the living legacy of the Korean stage, and open up new horizons for contemporary theater.
