The first show by Wild Rice was held at Jubilee Hall in Raffles Hotel.

[2] In 2017, Wild Rice kickstarted the process to acquire a permanent venue to hold productions, after seven failed attempts.

[4][3] The 20,000 sq ft (1,900 m2) venue spans across three levels and comprises a 60-seat performance studio, rehearsal rooms, Wild Rice’s office, and its 358-seat Ngee Ann Kongsi Theatre.
