Nigeria’s first privately owned theatre, Terra Kulture Arena is here.

Arts lover and investor, Bolanle Austen Peters has launched the 400 seater, state of the art theatre dubbed the Terra Kulture Arena in Victoria Island. The arena is the first privately owned technology equipped modern arts theatre in Nigeria.

Regarded as the all in one center for arts and culture aficionados, the space was built to serve a significant need in the theatre industry as only a few places in Nigeria provide the appropriate ambiance, for Nigerians and foreigners alike to experience Nigeria’s rich cultural heritage.

Guests were treated to drinks by Scavi and Ray winery and an exquisite array of canapés in the new ultra-modern lounge and the audience was thrilled with short clips from Saro the musical, Wakaa the musical and BAP productions’ newest feature, Fela and the Kalakuta queens which will show throughout December.

There was also a special rendition of the soundtrack of Wakaa by soul singer, Brymo.

In his address, Minister of Information and culture, Hon. Alhaji Lai Mohammed, commended Austen-Peters and pledged the support of the Federal Government to boost art and culture in the country.
