The beauty that is hard to describe in words. I watched the Cambodian Celestial Dance on TV when I was very young, and I felt extremely shocked at the time. I didn't expect the effect of watching the scene to be even more amazing. The stage does not have too much decoration, unlike Siem Reap where various sound and light special effects are added, it relies entirely on the expressions and body movements of the actors to attract people, returning to the essence of dance, and also seeing the skills of the actors. The actress who plays the goddess not only has the right expression, but also has good legs, relying on one leg to support the body to switch directions, and the upper body does not move at all. She has seen the American Cambodian immigrant fans jump, and the shelves are all there, but the same action is not stable at all. Normal performances include not only Tiannv dance, but also sacrificial dances and folk dances, which condensed Cambodia's history, mythology and folklore, and the content is very diverse. Most people are attracted by the gentle beauty of the heavenly girl dance, but the masculine side of the male dance is also shown in the performance. For example, in the scene of Churning the Milky Way, the heavenly god and Asura are at war. And most of the male roles are played by men, unlike many performances where women play male roles, which gives people a soft feeling. All in all, through a dance, people can experience the glory of the Khmer Empire. Although Cambodia is now the least developed country in Southeast Asia, its culture is still splendid. Most of the audience are European and American people. Sitting in the first row with my parents and I looked quite different. One last reminder, if you have seen Thai dance, you may think that Cambodian dance is very similar to Thailand. That is because Thailand has absorbed a lot of Khmer culture in its history.

I give full marks to the scenery and interest. I only give two points. As for why, I will tell you slowly. Since I came to Cambodia, I have been satisfied with all the hotels, shops and attractions, but in this theater I felt an unprecedented humiliation! I personally like classical dances and operas from various countries, so I bought the highest price for Zone A tickets. The actors have good dancing skills and facial expression skills. However, the subtitles of the storyline are only available in English and French. When I was short-sighted, I took the subtitles and translated them with my mobile phone. The theater rules were very clear and said that no flash was allowed. Of course, I strictly followed it and shot with no flicker, but when I used software to translate, An old madman from a French tour group in front of me reached out to call my mobile phone, saying that I used my mobile phone to influence her to watch! I ignored her and continued to look at me. She reached out and pushed my phone again. Everyone looked at the pictures I sent. This crazy dog is in front of me! Front row! Do I use my hand behind her to influence her to watch? ? From the moment she started to make trouble for me, no one in the theater stopped her! My friend said this is a French tour group, we can't afford it, let's bear it. I bother! It is 2020 and Cambodia has long been independent! It's not a French colony for a long time. Do these French tour groups know what to say to face? In 1863, you France was in the name of protection. In 1945, you invaded and occupied Cambodia nakedly. In 53 years, didn't you get out of it! Do you still have a face to show your power today? ! Shameless! Let's talk about theater. You can have English letters, but the world language is understandable, but how come there is French but no Chinese? ? The hotel managers told me that they learned Chinese from a young age because China is an old friend of Cambodia and a country with diplomatic relations! Co-author You are reluctant to part with the former aggressor countries and provide them with French subtitles, but your friendly neighboring countries do not have subtitles? ? Except for English, you either do not provide Chinese or French subtitles! The same fare, we Chinese do not accept different treatment! Warm reminder to Chinese tourists, before going to the theater to buy tickets, be sure to check if there is a French tour group, if there are any, go another day. French old mad dogs are very powerful, don't spend money to ruin your mood! I can't afford to provoke us to hide! Finally, I remind the person in charge of the theater that Cambodia became independent in the 1950s! You are an independent country with dignity, not a French colony, so be hard! Don't give them a chance to go crazy! Don't hurt the hearts of your old friends Chinese!
The theater staged Cambodian-style dramas, dance dramas, etc., with English subtitles. Those who have a certain pursuit of art, might as well come here to observe and experience.
Right next to the palace, this theater is quite fun. It starts at 5:30 every night. The performances in the theater are scheduled for a fixed time. The performances are all aimed at foreign tourists, and they have more traditional local characteristics.
Recommend to go. With local characteristics, the dancers are very engaged. The staff is warm and attentive.
