Shadow Puppet Troupe of Wat Bo: The Magical Arrowhead Dragon
Sbeik Thom (shadow puppetry) is an ancient and sacred form of Cambodian theater traditionally performed on ceremonial occasions. Performances of Sbeik Thom feature puppeteers and dancers manipulating large-scale leather shadow puppets against a lit screen while accompanied by a pinpeat ensemble. Once thought that the art form would become extinct, the Sbeik Thom performance is their New York City premiere.
