Chakrabhand Posayakrit Foundation

Behold the show
Chakrabhand Posayakrit Foundation

……… After rave reviews for his adaptations of the Chinese puppet plays Sam Kok (Romance of the Three Kingsoms) and Zhou Qiu (The Shipwreck) in 1990, Ajarn Chakrabhand Posayakrit and his talented troupe thought of answering the ovations by reviving Thai traditional puppetry. The next year, with help from his mentor Teacher Prayong Kijnitade (regarded as the guru of Thai puppetry), the ensemble performed their first show of Taleng Phai (Defeating the Burmese).


            For the past nineteen years, they’ve been hard at work crafting intricate puppets and learning how to articulate the precise movements for the show. They’re still not finished; only 60 percent of the puppets and rehearsals have been completed. The entire operation is run out of Ajarn Chakrabahn’s beautiful wooden residence which is open to the public; it’s nice you can visit without having to pull any strings.
BKK note: Bestowed with Thailand’s National Artist Award in 2000, Ajarn Chakrabhand Posayakrit was also commended as one of the fifty-two masters of Rattanakosin during Bangkok’s bicentennial.
