Rain is often described as a time of despair. However, Cambodian people see it as an opportunity for growth. Residents in Cambodia have always relied on the rain to provide food and water, especially during the harvest season.
“Rain & Life” is based on an oral story told by Angkor Dance Troupe’s Artistic Director, Neakru Phousita Huy, Master Teacher of Classical Dance and Lokru Kimhan Meas, Master Teacher of Folk Dance. This story is preserved by Angkor Dance Troupe for this generation of Cambodian-American artists to pass down to the next generation. The story is based in Cambodia and follows the prayer of heaven and earth during the monsoon season to the harvest season.
