caf Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 Historically, Cambodia has a well-earned reputation for circus and this troupe has entertained in many countries over the last few years It is very different from performances from the West. Faster and more daring. There was a short preview on Tuesday at Informal Northern Thai Group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
