when the somapa dance troupe came to lowell for the water festival i got to talk to them...i told them they should take with with them to teach me khon but cannot afford it xD
thats wat i said about the muay thai thing ...but i guess it is part of the dance x[...i also agree on ur opinion of this dance being performed in a beautiful palace
There were several music and dance groups performing at the same venue, in what is essentially a temporary stage under a circus tent on the National Mall. I agree that an air-conditioned stage with theater lighting would have been preferable but this is a very informal setting that is designed to get people in and out quickly if necessary to attend other events taking place during the Folklife Festival. The important thing is to expose Americans to the culture of Thailand.
Someone apparently beat me to it! Someone else posted it, not me. However, YouTube is not allowing me to give you the link as it keeps erasing the comment, so I will have to tell you to go to Goo gle vid eo and search for "Makar.
If you danced with the Cambodian-American Heritage dancers, I also have video tape of the classical dance (but not of the folk dance, the one with the fishermen)

this is very kitschy(hokey)
such a dance should only performed on a very beuautiful stage or in the palace but not in such a cheap place (I say it as a 1/2thai)
and I sounds and looks like muay thai
