AKB48 to setup theatre in Singapore

April 25, 2011 by Yein Jee

Japanese pop group AKB48 is setting up a theatre in Singapore, which would be their first regular show venue outside of Japan.

AKB48 Singapore theatre

The 48-members idol group made their debut as theatre based performers in 2005, and have since evolved into the most successful female pop group in Japan. AKB48 still perform on regular basis in their theatres despite the mainstream success. Their best selling singles include Sakura no Ki ni Narou and Beginner etc.

According to official announcement [Jp], the Singapore show will be held twice a month in 2011, beginning on May 15. The concert and ticketing details are not yet finalised. Judging from their previous well-received performances in Singapore, it’s probably going to be a sell out crowd, at least for the first few shows.
