Nouveau Comedy Theatre Performance
@ Meta House
The "Nouveau Comedy Theatre" was established by Cambodian expat Im Kim Sour.
After studying traditional dance and Bassac theatre at the Royal University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh, she obtained a Chinese scholarship to study arts in 1973 and then lived in France during the war. She later married and lived in Tokyo with her Japanese husband and returned to Cambodia two years ago.
"Here I created this group as I saw that theatrical plays, especially Khmer traditional speaking dramas, have almost disappeared. I want to bring new theatrical experiences to Cambodian audiences."
Please be our guest for the first performance of Im Kim Sour’s troupe at the Meta House.
