Travel Laos Haiku - Cultural Performance At Royal Palace Museum Or Laos National Museum Poem by john tiong chunghoo

charming boys and girls
after they put away
the gods and deities

the one hour dance and drama cultural performance at one of the halls near the national museum in Luang Prabang was a lacklustre one when compared to those i have watched in cambodia and thailand but when we were really striken by the charming demeanor of the boys and girls playing the gods and deities from tales culled from the ramayana.. we paid US10 to watch the performance in a non airconditioned hall. the boys and girls i think need more training because it seems they cannot even stand on a straight line.
