Millie Tsai at Dubai Community Theatre and Community Theatre and Arts Centre ...
It’s late afternoon and the place is beginning to buzz. Children and teenagers are hurrying to their dance classes, a woman is dabbing away at a canvas in one studio and a group of potters are preparing to turn lumps of clay into pretty pots and bowls in another. In the main theatre a director is going through a script for a forthcoming production.
Dubai Community Theatre and Arts Centre is living up to its name as a thriving hub for the performing arts and beginning to fulfil its promise as “the first modern, non-profit, cross community creative centre in the Gulf”.
It hasn’t always been an easy ride throughout the conception, building and establishment of what is commonly known as Ductac, situated on the second floor of the Mall of the Emirates. Now, however, the new general manager Millie Tsai is quietly taking it into a new phase of its four-year existence. She is determined to establish it as a serious hub for both performing and creative arts that brings together local talent from all the artistic disciplines under one roof as well as showcasing interesting and unusual Middle Eastern and international performers.
