Nelum Pokuna Art Theatre Sri Lanka

The Nelum Pokuna (Lotus Pond) Mahinda Rajapaksa Performing Arts Theatre.The Theatre built on a model similar to the Nelum Pokuna (Lotus Pond) of Polonnaruwa, was constructed with expertise from China at a cost of Rs 3.08 billion.
Facilities in our halls, where dramas can be staged today are poor. The theatres available, even in the main towns, of our island, are over fifty years old and have little in the way desired facilities,. In spite of these short comings our audiences are privy to productions of very high quality.
