Phare Circus is not just a circus; it’s a vibrant, soul-stirring spectacle that showcases the boundless talent of Cambodian youth. The performances are a dynamic fusion of theater, music, dance, and modern circus arts, all woven together to tell uniquely Cambodian stories, from historical epics to modern narratives.
The Heart of Phare Circus
At its core, Phare Circus is a testament to the resilience and creativity of the Cambodian spirit. Founded by former refugees, the organization has its roots in Phare Ponleu Selpak (PPS), an art school established to heal the wounds of war through art therapy. Today, PPS provides free education and vocational arts training, transforming the lives of disadvantaged youth.
Experience the Extraordinary
Each show is a testament to the performers’ energy, emotion, and talent. Special shows like ‘An Artist’s Rain’ and ‘Khmer Metal’ offer a glimpse into Cambodia’s rich culture and the artists’ personal journey.
