Phare: The Cambodian Circus Show in Siem Reap





Beschrijving
Phare Circus is meer dan een conventioneel acrobatisch circus. De kunstenaars creëren en voeren verhalen uit op basis van hun eigen levenservaringen. De artiesten, geïnspireerd op de recente geschiedenis, folklore en moderne samenleving, mengen drama, dans, live muziek en circuskunsten om een deel van hun leven met het publiek te delen. De performers komen uit een onvoorstelbaar moeilijke sociale en economische achtergrond. Ze ontdekken en ontwikkelen hun vaardigheden bij Phare Ponleu Selpak non-profit school. Ze zijn in staat om een goede boterham te verdienen en hun leven bij Phare Circus te transformeren, waardoor de cirkel van armoede wordt doorbroken. Door het bijwonen van een Phare Circus show, geniet je van Siem Reap's beste live entertainment, financiële ondersteuning van de school en biedt mogelijkheden voor Cambodjaanse artiesten.

Phare: The Cambodian Circus was one of the highlights of our time in Siem Reap and an experience I would recommend to anyone visiting Cambodia. This is far more than a circus. It is a beautiful blend of storytelling, live music, theatre and breathtaking acrobatics that showcases Cambodia's history, culture and resilience. The performers are exceptionally talented, and every act is delivered with incredible energy, precision and passion. What made the evening even more meaningful was knowing that the performance supports the education and development of young Cambodian artists. You leave not only entertained, but also inspired by the impact this organisation has on local communities. The venue is well organised, the atmosphere is vibrant, and every seat offers a great view. I would recommend arriving early to enjoy the pre-show atmosphere, browse the gift shop and have something to eat before the performance. If you are spending even one night in Siem Reap, do not miss this show. It is authentic, emotional, family friendly and one of the finest cultural experiences we had in Cambodia. A truly unforgettable evening and an easy 5 out of 5.
What a fabulously fun show. I took some friends to the show and they loved it. The performers are excellent
Dear Darren, Thank you for the fabulous review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you and your friends had such a fun time and loved the show. Our performers put a lot of energy and passion into every act, so hearing that they hit the mark for your group means a lot to the entire team. Thank you for your support, and we hope to welcome you all back under the big top in the future! Warm regards, Vireak THY E-Commerce Officer Phare, The Cambodian Circus
This is a great venue. There’s a shop and restaurant you can visit before the show. Circus tent wasn’t too hot when we visited but they provide fans on arrival and issue small towels which you can take home. Performers were very skilled and made everything look so easy. No nets are used. It’s a mixture of acting and circus tricks which works well. Good for something different while in Siem Reap. Performance lasts approx 1 hour and photos can be taken with the troop after the show. We enjoyed our visit.
Dear 641caz, Thank you for the great review! We are thrilled that you enjoyed our unique mix of theater and circus skills, and that you had fun taking photos with the troupe after the show. We are also glad you enjoyed our pre-show shop and restaurant. Just to clarify for future guests, our complimentary souvenir towels are a special perk provided exclusively for Section A ticket holders to keep them comfortable during the performance. Our artists train very hard to perform safely without nets, so your kind words about their skills mean a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back under the big top soon! Warm regards, Vireak THY E-Commerce Officer Phare, The Cambodian Circus
I agree with many others that the acrobatics of the show are overshowed by the unnecessary and not child appropriate attempts at jokes based on affairs, homosexuality and alcohol abuse. It is a shame as the show could be great and these references are not needed. Many members of the audience were visibly uncomfortable as actors approached males and made inappropriate advances. Not needed or funny, it takes away from the athletic abilities of the performers.
Dear Ljo87, Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your honest perspective regarding the themes and humor in the performance you attended. The show you saw is **"Khmer Metal,"** which is intentionally designed to present an edgy glimpse into the challenges and relationships of modern Cambodian urban life. Our artists created this specific production to explore contemporary themes set within a Phnom Penh rock bar, which includes mature humor and audience interaction. We understand that this unique theme may not be to everyone's taste or suitable for all audiences, especially families. We rotate our productions throughout the month, offering a wide variety of shows ranging from lighthearted folktales to historical dramas. We highly recommend that future guests check our show descriptions online before booking to find the performance that best matches their preferences. Thank you again for your valuable review. Warm regards, Vireak THY E-Commerce Officer Phare, The Cambodian Circus

I didn't know what to expect, but I ended up delighted; it is a circus created by young artists who not only perform incredible acts but also tell a story through the show. The food is also delicious. It is definitely an activity worth considering when you visit Siem Reap.

It was a great night out - very accomplished acrobatic display. We missed a small interpretation through different language but still very entertaining
Dear 43Greenlaw, Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear you had a great night out and enjoyed the amazing young acrobats and their accomplished performance. We’re sorry you missed some of the interpretation due to the language. Our shows are designed to be mostly visual and physical so that everyone can enjoy them even without understanding Khmer, but we’ll take your feedback on board to make the storytelling even clearer. Thank you again for the kind words. We hope to welcome you back to Phare for another entertaining evening whenever you return to Siem Reap! Sincerely, Vireak Thy E-Commerce Officer Phare, The Cambodian Circus
Phare circus in Siem Reap. So entertaining. Comedy, aerobatics & funny. Local people entertaining nightly. The best ticket is $38 US. Get a front row seat. They also train kids for Apsara dancing & raise money for local children providing skills & future employment
Dear Darryl, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the show and found it so entertaining with great comedy, acrobatics, and energy. Just a small clarification: the Apsara dance performances before the show are not performed by our Phare students. We cooperate with talented local dance groups and students from other schools to perform as a way to give them opportunities and support the wider arts community in Siem Reap. We’re glad you had a great evening and really appreciate your recommendation as a must-see in Siem Reap. Thank you also for recognising our work supporting young people through arts education. We hope to welcome you back again soon! Sincerely, Vireak Thy E-Commerce Officer Phare, The Cambodian Circus
