The performing arts NGO, Phare Ponleu Selpak, recently erected Cambodia’s first proper circus tent / big top.
Phare Ponleu Selpak, which is based in Battambang, focuses on the poor / disenfranchised youth in the area and offers them a normal education as well as training in the performing arts.
The new Big Top consists of a ring with spectators on three sides and a metal cupola sturdy enough to support trapezes and ropes, and it replaces a 23 year old tent that the circus school had been donated 5 years ago.
Throughout the year public circus events are performed at the school in Battambang. If you would like to attend a circus performance please email: info@asia-adventures.com
