Classics At Capitol: Watch Films In Historic Theater In Singapore

Singapore families, get set for a magical trip back in time! Classics At Capitol brings the golden age of cinema back to life at the iconic Capitol Theatre, Singapore’s last surviving pre-war movie palace. Starting Sunday, February 22, 2026, and running through April 28, 2026, this special programme screens digitally restored masterpieces in stunning 4K, curated by local film expert Ben Slater. It’s the perfect chance to share timeless stories on the big screen in a beautifully preserved venue that feels like stepping into movie history.

Kick off with the joyful musical Singin’ In The Rain (1952), full of splashy dance numbers and feel-good vibes starring Gene Kelly, Donald O’Connor, and Debbie Reynolds — ideal for kids who love singing and movement. Then dive into epic adventures with Lawrence Of Arabia (1962), and wrap up with suspenseful thrills in Alfred Hitchcock’s North By Northwest (1959) starring Cary Grant. These family classics offer something for everyone: upbeat tunes for little ones, grand stories for older kids, and nostalgic charm for parents. The historic setting adds extra wow — think domed ceilings with zodiac motifs and Pegasus panels that spark wonder in young eyes.
