Spectacle on the Word's Highest Stage Held in the colossal 2,000-seat Ratchada
Theatre, the Siam Niramit show boasts an 11.95 metre proscenium - certified by
Guinness World of Records as the world's highest stage. Occupying more than half
of the entire theatre space, the panoramic Ratchada Theatre stage is built to
accommodate the show's monumental set pieces and a legion of performers
(including real elephants and goats) to recreate a realistic ambience of Siam
hundreds of years ago. |

The show is
suitably structured into three acts: Journey Back into History, Journey Beyond
Imagination: The Three Realms and Journey Through Joyous Festivals. Reliving the
Glorious Past The lights suddenly dimmed and permeating through the darkened
stage is the heart-thumping beat of 'klong sabatchai' (victory drum), followed
by the graceful golden fingernail dance and sword dance. The entire stage is
re-lit and awoken back to life with a scene of the Ancient Kingdom of Lanna,
showing a slow-paced, yet elegant royal procession led by the King and Queen of
Lanna, the earliest of Siamese reigns. |
