Phare shows are inspired by the real-life experiences of its creators and performers and deal with themes such as war, discrimination, relationships, poverty and ghosts. Some performances contain smoke, loud noises & music and strobe lights. The masks in “Sokha” or the “ghosts” in “Chills” are not more scary than what one might see on Halloween, but can be surprising if one is expecting clowns. Children are usually captivated by the high energy acrobatics, while the story line adds depth for adults and young adults. In an easy way to understand, it is the best show combining history with dance and acrobatics.

HOW TO PURCHASE?
After a day scrambling ruins in the sticky heat, most tourists spend their nights dining on Khmer barbecue while downing cold one-dollar beers on Pub Street. But it is no longer a trend as increasingly, visitors are opting for a taste of contemporary Cambodian culture, everyday life and entertainment under the big top at the city’s new circus. A trip to Siem Reap won’t be completed without an unforgettable visit to the circus in support of a good cause!
