Rediscovering long-lost theatrical performances to honor the late King Bhumibol

To pay tribute to the late monarch, Time Out Bangkok shines the spotlight on three rare performing arts: the Manorah ballet, which was co-composed by the late king and will be restaged for the first time in 25 years; the Nang Yai, a rarely-seen shadow puppet show that most Thais have never seen in their lives; and the Hoon Luang, a delicate puppet show that’s believed to be lost since the reign of King Rama V a few hundred years ago.
