Taiwan Traditional Theatre Center Introduction
The Taiwan Traditional Theatre Center is an exhibition and performance venue located in Taipei, operated by the National Center for Traditional Arts. It hosts the Guoguang Opera Company, the National Chinese Orchestra Taiwan, and the Taiwan Music Center, making it the first professional theater in Taiwan with resident performing companies.
