Editor’s Description

Last updated: May 18, 2020

A major player in the Shanghai stage scene. Shanghai Culture Square is a regular host to musicals, concerts and dramatic theatre ranging from Les Miserables to Paw Patrol Live. While it is smaller than the Shanghai Grand Theatre in People's Square, the 65,000 square meter building that cost 1.1billion RMB and has just over 2000 seats tells you they didn't pull any punches during construction. Its impressive architecture and variety of performances make it a reliable option for an early evening outing.
