As a community struggling to put down roots in a new homeland, Cambodian dance provides a poignant reminder of the beauty and spirituality of our culture and helps us build a more stable foundation for our children. As the heart and soul of the Cambodian American community in Lowell, the Troupe has served as a foundation and voice of our cherished cultural traditions. We are nationally recognized as one of the most accomplished and experienced of the U.S. - based Cambodian traditional arts ensembles and have received recognition from the Massachusetts Cultural Council, the National Endowment of the Arts, and the White House. We hope you enjoy the show! Tim Thou Co-Founder ~ Phousita Huy Artistic Director ~ ? DahvyTran Executive Director ~ �• Progra,n Attgkor Oam:~ Troup<, Im:. 1'UfIDH~f The Angkor Dance Troupe is proud to present Reamker a Cambodian epic poem, based on the Sanskrit's Ramayana epic. It adapts the Hindu ideas to Buddhist themes and shows the balance of good and evil in the world.

The evolution of the Indian Ramayana story in Cambodia represents the adaptation of Hindu ideas to Buddhist themes and shows the balance of good and evil in society. Reamker serves as an inspiration for various genres of performance in Cambodia. Classical dance-drama, all-male masked dance-drama, and shadow puppet plays all include episodes in their repertoire. The story of Reamker centers on Preah Ream, a Prince who was exiled to the forest through no fault of his own for fourteen years. Following many adventures including the abduction of his wife Neang Seda by the evil giant Krong Reap, Preah Ream eventually rescues her with the help of an Army of monkeys guided by Hanuman. Preah Ream and Neang Seda return home in triumph and the Prince reclaims his throne. The complex interplay of strengths (bravery, foresight) and weaknesses (distrust, trickery) --though couched in episodes lined with magic -- nonetheless represents aspects of human social behavior. 4 �• Characters Att5lwr D,M1C£ Trow!"!, lttc. 1.~\f$£0$0£f Preah Ream, is the main protagonist of the epic.

Preah Ream and Neang Seda falls asleep under a tree. It was there that Krong Reap catches sight of Neang Seda, he was so awed by her beauty that he commands his soldier Maharik to transform into Preus Meas - the Golden Deer. Neang Seda falls in love with Preus Meas and ask Preah Ream to capture it for her. Neang Seda and Preah Leak waits, while Preah Ream pursues the Golden Deer. Scene II: Preah Ream follows the Golden Deer As Preah Ream pursues Preus Meas, Neang Seda becomes worried that her husband may have trouble capturing the deer and ask Preah Leak to assist him. Preah Leak agrees but before leaving he pulls out his magic bow, shoots it at the ground near Neang Seda, which cast a protective enchantment around her Scene III: The Abduction of Nean Seda Krong Reap's plans to get Neang Seda alone succeeds and attempts to capture her, but fails. He keeps circling around the enchanted perimeter, trying to find a way in, but each time gets burnt by the enchantment. The only way Krong Reap can get to Neang Seda is to trick her out of the circle, so he transforms into an Ta Eysi - an old Hermit. Neang Seda sees Ta Eysi and steps out of the protective circle to bow down and pay her respects. She allows him into the circle, where Ta Eysi tells her she is destined for Krong Reap and not for Preah Ream. Shocked, Neang Seda reprimands Ta Eysi by striking him. Angered, Ta Eysi transforms back to his true form and chases her. The scene ends with Krong Reap capturing and flying away with Neang Seda. 6 �Rea,nffer Atts)«.or OattC£ Trol-tpe, lttc. 1.ffSHti'lff~f Scene IV: Preah Ream and Preah Leak calls for Hanuman Upon returning the brothers realized Neang Seda was abducted. They seek out Hanuman for help. Preah Ream shoots his magic arrow into the sky to summon Hanuman and when he arrives, Preah Ream places his ring preah thomrong in Hanuman's hand. This would be proof to Neang Seda that she can trust Hanuman to bring her back home. Scene V: Kin dom of Lan ka At Krong Reap's palace, the gods cast a protective spell around Neang Seda's body, which caused intense heat to radiate. Krong Reap is burned every time he attempts to touch her. Angered, Krong Reap orders two female servants to punish her, but they are interrupted by Hanuman. Initially, Neang Seda thinks Hanuman is a fraud, so she places a spell on him to test him. If he is the real Hanuman, a flower garland would appear around his neck. Hanuman then places the ring from Preah Ream in Neang Seda's hand. Scene VI: Hanuman and Sovann Macha Hanuman attempts to build a bridge to the kingdom of Langka to rescue Neang Seda, but is thwarted by Krong Reap's daughter, Sovann Macha. As soon as the monkeys lay down the stone path to cross the ocean, Sovann Macha's mermaids remove the stones. Hanuman catches Sovann Macha and decides to seduce her. He succeeds and they end up falling in love. Sovann Macha allows the completion of the stone path to the kingdom of Langka where a battle ensues between good and evil. Scene VII: Neang Seda and the Test of Fire Preah Ream, out of jealousy, assumes that Neang Seda was unfaithful and no longer pure after being Krong Reap's captive, he puts her through the test of fire to prove her fertility and purity. Her innocence was proven. 7 �At1$kor Oat1cie: Trowpc. lt1c. 1.!'1UfID$$£f sova1111 Ma,1ha Spo11sors Lowell General Hospital is proud to sponsor the Angkor Dance Troupe, Inc. ~ Lowell General Hospital '-.,./' Complete connected care= GALLAGHER & CAVANAUGH LLP COUNSELLORS AT LAW 8 �Sora1111 Ma,;ha Sponsors Anskor Oa-=< Trow~. lttc. 1.'1SHs.1ff£f INSURANCE AGENCY How- can w-e help you?

Inc. 1.fflH£i1ff£S Vision We envision Lowell Massachusetts to be the epicenter for innovative Cambodian performing arts with the Angkor Dance Troupe at the core. Mission The Angkor Dance Troupe connects communities through the preservation, education and innovation of Cambodian performing arts. History The Angkor Dance Troupe was formed in 1986 by Cambodian refugees of the Khmer Rouge holocaust. Lowell's Cambodian American community, estimated at more than 35,000 people, is the second largest in the country. When we resettled here, we brought a passion to carry on our cherished cultural traditions to practice and perform, to teach our children, and to see our art preserved for future gene!ations of all cultures. We take our name from the great Angkor civilization, between 802 and 1432 AD when Cambodia was a dominant empire in Southeast Asia. Dance and music have always been prominent in Khmer society, but these ancient traditions were nearly eliminated when the Khmer Rouge controlled Cambodia in the 1970s. Artists were among those deliberately targeted for execution. More than 90% of the country's tradition bearers perished. Today, as Cambodians around the world struggle to emerge from decades of war and poverty, our people look to the rebirth and re-creation of dance as testimony to the endurance of our culture. "The Angkor Dance Troupe is a gem in the Commonwealth. The Massachusetts Cultural Council is proud to be a longtime supporter of Angkor for its beauty, value, and impact in preserving this rich cultural art form for the Lowell community and beyond" says Anita Walker, the Executive Director for the Mass Cultural Council. "The Angkor Dance Troupe is not only an organization promoting dance, it's an inspiration to all those who survived the Cambodian Genocide three decades ago, and a testament to the enduring power of the arts:' 18 �Supporters \ National Endowment for the Arts ARTWORKS. arts.gov Th Lenny Zakim Fund 1 8A I OG I G COM U !TI ES @Eastern Bani< charitable foundation T The Parker Foundation 19 �PRESERVE• EDUCATE• INNOVATE www.angkordance.o �Reamker Cast 2015 Students PreahReam Nean Seda PreahLeak Giants Army Golden Deer · Tha E si Hermit Hanuman Tim Sokhoeun Poutda Pech Brianna Mai Monica Veth Judith Wilson Alexandra Mai Salena Mam Dais Var Channa Sath Kimhan Meas Nicky Fennell Gen.

Tr'o'-lpe., Inc. History and Background / ike all traditional arts, Cambodian classical and folk dance has /...!Jen passed down from one generation to the next. Since the Angkor Era, Cambodian dancers and musicians have preserved, cherished, and celebrated their art. The Angkor Dance Troupe was formed For' Cambodian~, in 1986 in Lowell, MA by two teachers ar'f i~ +he cor'e of and a handful of dancers who learned life, combining traditional Cambodian Dance in enfer'fainmen+, refugee camps along the Thai- fr'adifion, r'eligion, Cambodian border. Between 1975, and and ~ocial cohe~ion. 1979, when Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge controlled Cambodia, many dancers and musicians perished or fled the country. It was in the camps and later in places like Lowell and at the University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh that traditional Cambodian dance was painstakingly resurrected. Today, dance has become one of the primary ways that Cambodians, split by politics and war, identify a common culture. For Cambodians, art is the core of life, combining entertainment, tradition, religion, and social cohesion. Wherever Cambodians live, so do the traditions of practicing, performing, and passing on the culture. 2 �classi<;: Dan ' C ambodian classical dance has been associated with the court of Cambodia for more than one thousand years. During the great Angkor civilization, the dancers of the Khmer royal ballet made offerings while performing during rituals and ceremonies before sacred idols. In court dance, we see highly-stylized positions in concert with gentle movements. Gestures are strictly defined and distinguished by the intricacy of hand positions. Each of these gestures has a specific meaning, often relating to nature. For example "Lea" can denote a leaf, but it can also mean "to open." (See right hand in photo below.) Depending on its context within the dance, Lea can represent the leaf and its beauty or the opening of a hand or a piece of paper. "Cheep" (left hand in photo) can symbolize a flower or it can mean to fold into small pleats. 3 �F olk dance is rooted in rural Cambodia and reflects the life and spirit of peasants. Throughout Cambodia, after the harvest is over, it is time for music, song, and dance. Dance motifs are commonly based on local legends and inspired by themes of nature as well as the ceremonies, customs, and rituals of everyday life. Just as court dance is ruled by a strict form and a prescribed language of movement, folk dance is spontaneous, created for emotional expressions. The folk dances performed by the Angkor Dance Troupe were refined by the University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh. Researchers collected dances and music from all over the country and then choreographed dances that were suited to staged performances. ~alkD11nes 4 �A Leader in Traditional Cambodian Dance The mission of the Angkor Dance Troupe is to preserve and develop the traditions of Cambodian performing arts, to promote an understanding and appreciation of Cambodian culture, and to provide a positive social, cultural, and recreational outlet for Cambodian youth. The Angkor Dance Troupe is recognized throughout New England as a leading Cambodian folk and classical dance ensemble. The Troupe's artistic director, Phousita S. Huy is one of the mostrespected master teachers of Cambodian dance in the U.S. She is a recently-emigrated star performer from the University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh, which is considered the cultural source and artistic standard bearer of Cambodian performing arts. Troupe coordinator and cofounder Tim Chan Thou was trained and certified as a teacher of Cambodian traditional dance from Khao-1-Dang and Philippine Refugee Centers. �Phalik Ting (left) and Thida Loeung at a recent performance in Boston.

Instructor Tim Chan Thou believes teaching in the schools is vitally important. "This is how we plant the seeds of interest in traditional culture," said Thou. "This is how we develop in young people an appreciation for our heritage, and ultimately it's our best hope to keep Cambodian dance alive." Members of the Angkor Dance Troupe rehearse at the Madelon Curtis Dance Studio in downtown Lowell. The Troupe holds weekly rehearsals. For four hours every Sunday, members gather to practice. The method of teaching is practiced as it has been done traditionally, by watching, imitation, and assistaoce from teachers to achieve the correct postures and movement. Through the dance instruction, students learn about Cambodian culture. From the folk dances, they learn about geography and a daily life in Cambodia that they have never experienced.

Students are respectful of teachers and of the knowledge they possess. They appreciate the chance to learn and understand their responsibility for carrying on their culture.

Many people have made valuable contributions to the Angkor Dance Troupe1 but without the sustained commitment of Thoeun and Kolab over the past decade1 the Troupe would not have survived. Despite the difficulties and hardships1 they have never given up in their belief that Cambodian traditional dance has meaning and value for future generations. With respect and appreciation1 we give them our thanks.

In the great Angkor civilization, the beautiful celestial dancers of the temple represented the prayers and linked the human world to omnipotent deities. Hundreds of bas-relief Apsara carvings can still be seen on the walls of Cambodia's national treasure, the temples of Angkor Wat. The Apsara Dance is based on the Angkor Wat sculptures. It is a dance for special occasions, originally performed only for the royal families of Cambodia. In the dance, we see Mera, dressed in white for purity, dancing in her garden with her handmaidens, also Apsaras. The golden flowers they carry symbolize the happiness and well-being of Cambodian people. �The Coconut Shell Dance Coconut trees are a main agricultural resource in Cambodia. They provide sustenance to Khmer farmers and are abundant in villages. Inspired by a popular game called Coconut Shell, the Coconut Dance originated in the province of Svay Rieny, the eastern part of Cambodia. In its original form, it was a oneman show. In the modern-day dance, an equal number of male and female dancers performs the dance, signifying friendship and courtship. COMPARE OUR MORTGAGE RATES WITH OTHERS!

Foll- Dane<' Good Crops Dance This folk dance comes from a minority tribe called Phnorng that lives in the hilly plateaus and forests of the Mundulkiri and Tarankiri provinces of Cambodia. The Good Crops dance depicts a delightful episode of choosing the fields for crops. The dance, through its movements and gesture, celebrates the hope for a productive harvest. Expression of Sentiment Dance Choreographed by the late dance master Chea Samy, this dance was originally created to provide dance students with a wide range of expressions and sentiments. It has also been performed by professional dancers as an addition to their repertoire of court dances. The theme depicts courting actions and, as it concludes, the sadness of two lovers separated. +- Fred C.

But when the hapless helpless creature begs for mercy, he lets it go. And so the Butterfly Dance symbolizes both the curiosity and the compassion of Cambodian people. The graceful gestures and polite manner. The willingness to always help and support one another. And above all, the desire to live in peace and harmony. Moni Mekhala Dance According to Cambodian legend, thunder and lightning result from the eternal battle between the Goddess Moni Mekhala and her adversary, the storm demon Ream Eyso. One of the most sacred dances in the Cambodian classical repertory, Moni Mekhala is still performed as a ceremony to pray for rain. A tradition in the community since 1849.

In a region of Cambodia along the border with Lao, people frequently play an instrument called the khen or mouth organ. In this dance, men play the mouth organs to serenade women. Not able to resist, the ladies touch the flowers hanging from the khen and fall in love. Chhoy Chhay Dance Chhouy Chhay is the name of an adolescent princess dancer with perfect beauty in all aspects. Her dance, voice, figure, and attitude are rare and unmatched in the world. This choreography demonstrates her delicate and gentle dance during her promenade in the forest. e peacock is a symbol of happiness in the region of Pailin, which borders Thailand. The dance is thought to bring prosperity to villagers and for that reason the dance is performed during the New Year and at other Peacock of Pailin ceremonies and festivals. The original performance of this dance was adapted from a tale involving a peacock and a hunter and was danced with both dancing and chasing actions. When it was brought to the University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh, some of the original elements were eliminated and new elements added. The theme was changed and now the dance embodies courtship. Tep Monorum Dance This dance, often considered the most beautiful in the classical repertory, embodies the well being, friendship, and prosperity of Cambodian people. 22 �Happy New Year to the Cambodian Community from l(ris Niccoli The Pestle Dance The Pestle Dance is a popular Khmer folk dance that originated in Siem Riep Province. It is a dance that celebrates the harvest. The pestle and mortar are used in Cambodia as an old-fashioned way to mill rice paddies. Usually two people, each with a pestle, pound alternatively in a constant rhythm, an action which provided the basis for the modern day dance. Ch hay Yam Dance Chhayam is a comic country dance. After the harvest, Khmer peasants and farmers gather in ceremonies and festivals to celebrate. Chhayam is performed to enliven and add levity to these celebrations. Its exciting rhythm encourages dancers to improvise their steps and gestures. f;\li l•l I: fill :?;1: ti 4 1 0 '·HONAN 'OMN Olo '/' OFF oooDF8R1vERs NO CLUB MEMBERSHIP NEEDED INSURANCE AGENCY 421 CHELMSFORD IT., LOWELL (NEXT TO WENDY'I) TEL. 454-0402 23 �•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• • Special Thanks to Our Dedicated Staff & Board of Directors • Chhan D.

Lowell's Cambodian American community, estimated at more than 35,000 people, is the second largest in the country. When we resettled here, we brought a passion to carry on our cherished cultural traditions to practice and perform, to teach our children, and to see our art preserved for future generations of all cultures. We take our name from the great Angkor civilization, between 802 and 1432 AD when Cambodia was a dominant empire in Southeast Asia. Dance and music have always been prominent in Khmer society, but these ancient traditions were nearly eliminated when the Khmer Rouge controlled Cambodia in the 1970s. Artists were among those deliberately targeted for execution. More than 90% of the country's tradition bearers perished. Today, as Cambodians around the world struggle to emerge from decades of war and poverty, our people look to the rebirth and re-creation of dance as testimony to the endurance of our culture. 6 �Celebrating Our Present Today What began as an organization that focused on the preservation of Cambodian arts and culture quickly became a youth-serving program. We recognized that, in order to fulfill our mission, we needed to groom the next generation of leaders. Using performing arts as the tool, we developed and guided over 4,500 youth over the years. These young people furthered their education and became teachers, nurses, and civic leaders within the community. They pointed to ADT as an integral part of their leadership journey. Since our 25th anniversary we have built a passionate Advisory Board, strengthened our current Board of Directors, created a comprehensive strategic fundraising plan, and we continue to establish strong partnerships. The number of youth served has increased each year, with our residency reaching an additional 100 youth through a summer program serving new refugee groups. In addition to our expansion in youth programming, our accomplishments include three "big" annual performances, two residencies, performance market expansion outside of Greater Lowell, co-hosting a national Southeast Asian American Conference with UMass Lowell (summer 2017), Senior Dancer Certification, (Bi)Annual Master Teacher Residencies, and Senior Dancer professional development. 7 �Embracing Our Future Future The future of Angkor Dance Troupe is to become the epicenter for innovative Cambodian performing arts. To achieve this vision, our goal is to have Lowell become home to the following: Lowell Angkor Arts Academy 10 Certified Master Teachers Angkor Touring Company We ask that you help advance this vision by supporting our goal of raising $30,000 toward establishing an endowment that will ensure thousands more youth will be served. 8 �_.._ .... ..... _...... ... ...... ·-__ .._ .......

Greater Lowell is home to the second-largest community of Cambodian Americans in the country.

During the great Angkor Era, dancers performed in temples to bring prosperity to the kingdom . Bas relief carvings at many of Cambodia's vast temple complexes depict celestial dancers -Apsaras - who linked the human world to the gods. Classical dance is sometimes called court dance or royal ballet. At one time, it was the exclusive domain of royalty. Today this cherished art is enjoyed by audiences around the world and is a universal symbol of Khmer culture.

NANCY & RICHARD DONAHUE ~roughout Cambodia, after the harvest, it is time for music, song, and dance. Folk dance is rooted in rural Cambodia and depicts rituals of everyday village life. The dances honor skills that are typically undervalued in the rush toward westernization, such as fishing and rice farming. Dance motifs are commonly based on local legends and inspired by themes of nature as well as the ceremonies, and customs that shape the lives of Cambodian people. Distinctive, colorful costumes represent the traditional dress of the various regions and ethnic groups within Cambodia. 5 �A National Leader in Traditional Cambodian Dance The Troupe takes its name from the great Angkor Civilization, between 802 and 1432 AD, when Cambodia was a dominant empire in Southeast Asia. Dance, music, and drama have always been promi nent in Khmer society, but these ancient traditions were nearly eliminated when the Khmer Rouge controlled Cambodia in the 1970's. Artists were among those del iberately targeted for execution and more A dancer rehearses at the Royal University of F Arts, ine Phnom P enh, Cambodia.

Angkor is directed by world-renowned master teachers and performs a repertoire developed in concert with the Royal University of Fine Arts (RUFA) in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, considered the global standard bearer for Khmer traditional arts.

A Unique Way to Serve Youth A central component of Angkor's mission is to provide positive cultural, and recreational opportunities for Lowell youth. Since 1986, we have served more than 500 young people, ranging in age from 4 to 18, who rigorously rehearse, participate in performances, and attend outings. Youth typically stay involved with Angkor for at least 4 to 5 years, many even longer. In 1999, our work with youth was honored at the White House with a prestigious "Coming Up Taller" award from the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts. Since 1998, the Troupe has operated Angkor Youth Dance, an afterschool and summer program for at-risk youth, with major funding from the Massachusetts Cultural Council YouthReach Initiative.

Tonight's event marks the kickoff of our 30th Anniversary Series of events, culminating in a celebration that will take place on April 7, 2017 at the Sompao Meas Hall. The Angkor Dance Troupe was formed thirty years ago with the vision to preserve and develop the Cambodian performing arts, traditions that were almost completely wiped out during the Khmer Rouge genocide. For a community struggling to put down roots in a new homeland, Cambodian dance provides a poignant reminder of the beauty and spirituality of our culture and helps us build a more stable foundation for our children. As the heart and soul of the Cambodian American community in Lowell, the Angkor Dance Troupe has served as a foundation and voice of its cherished cultural traditions. The Troupe is nationally recognized as one of the most accomplished and experienced traditional Cambodian arts ensembles in the United States and has received recognition from the Massachusetts Cultural Council, the National Endowment of the Arts, and the White House. Enjoy the show, and we hope to see you at other 30th anniversary events to come!

In 1979, he started learning Classical Cambodian Dance at the of School of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh and in 1981 began his study in piano, where he realized his passion for music. This led to him receiving a scholarship in 1985 to study music in Russia. He graduated in 1990 with a degree in Choir Conducting from the Tchaikovsky's College of Music, in Moscow. Then received his Master Degree in Orchestra Conducting from the Gnesin Academy of Music in 1995 and his Ph.Din Philology from the Institute ofWorld Literature in Moscow, in 1999. He returned to Cambodia in 2000 and has been working for the Royal University of Fine Arts (RUFA), and became a Acting Dean of the Faculty of Music in 2016. He is a conductor of the Cambodia Chamber Orchestra, professor of music history for various universities including the Royal Academy of Cambodia and other 3 �Attgltcr O"'ttcc Troupe. lttc. wu=m~~= private universities in Phnom Penh, Director of Mozart Music Center.

Huy, Angkor Dance Troupe's Artistic Director 4 �PRDGRIM Att5kor D~"t1cc Tro\jrc. lt1c. 1.i:~rn1~~f Pre Show: Ream Leak Chup Leak - classical In the story Reamker, Neang Seda, the princess is living in exile in the forest with her son and the hermit, a magic wizard. She sets out to bathe one morning, leaving her sleeping son Ream Leak with the hermit. On her way to the pond, she spots a female monkey, and she notices the monkey carrying her young with her wherever she goes. Neang Seda feels guilty about leaving her own son behind and goes back and gets him. The hermit is in deep meditation and doesn't notice Neang Seda's return or her taking Ream Leak. When he wakes to find the child missing, he panics and fears Neang Seda anger. He takes Ream Leak's pillow and scrapes off some remnants of his skin cell - and fashions a new child - an identical clone of Ream Leak. Imagine Sita's surprise when she returns from bathing and finds that Ream Leak now has a twin. The hermit names the new boy Chup Leak. They decide the two boys will study together and for the next seven years, they study magic with the hermit. In this scene, the two boys go off to play in the forest with their bows and arrows. They each shoot an arrow into a large tree. The impact makes such a huge sound; it is heard all the way to the capital city. The Prince, Preah Ream, hears it and gets mad. He sends his best army general, a white monkey named Hanuman, to investigate the source of this sound, and to capture those responsible for it. He sends his white horse along with Hanuman but hangs a sign on the neck of the horse that says "Anyone who plays with this horse will be executed." 5 �AH5kor D~ttcc PRDGRilM Tr.:mpe. lttc. w~md"£' Eventually Hanuman and the horse catches up with the two boys in the forest. Ream Lak and Chup Lak are very curious boys. They see the sign and immediately check out the horse - and take turns riding it. Hanuman tries to capture them, but he can't because, with their seven years of training in magic have made the boys very powerful and crafty. Instead they capture Hanuman, tie him up, and before sending him back to Preah Ream, they take resin from a tree and write a letter on his face that says only Hanuman's master, Preah Ream will be able to untie the string. You see the Monkey general struggle against the rope and eventually he gives up and returns to his master, defeated in his mission. Krama Dance - folk The Krama, a Cambodian scarf woven from silk or cotton, has been a fashion staple since Ancient times and even to this day is still used by Khmer people throughout the country from rural areas to major cities. Over the years, the Krama became a symbol and a major part of the Khmer identity. In today's society, regardless of their position in life, every Cambodian uses Krama everyday whether as a scarf, a hammock, a fan, or to carry their lunch. Khmer people for generations have tied kramas around their waists to work and play in cool comfort. While some claim the thin cloth, wrapped around one's head or neck, is used primarily to wipe the sweat from a hot face, others say wearing a krama is as 'Khmer' as wearing a necktie is American. The Krama dance was depicted and symbolic of everyday Khmer people life 6 �PROGRAM Att5kor o~,.,ce Trowpc. lttc. ~l$fm~~f Pin Panhchapor Program: The Angkor Dance Troupe is proud to present Pin Panhchapor, a play inspired by the wall carvings on Angkor Wat and Bayon.

It tells about a battle of good and evil between the Monkey General and Giant King over the Neak (Naga snake). The Neak was used to churn the sea of milk to extract the amrit (water of immortality). This liquid brings immortality to whomever possesses it. Over the course of 1,000 years they continued to churn the sea until one day within the foam of the sea, appeared an Apsara. Scene II: Apsaras in the Garden of Paradise Due to the churning of the sea, the White Apsara raised to the surface of the ocean. The White Apsara accompanied by her other Apsaras friends, entered the garden of paradise. Inspired by the beautiful flowers, the White Apsara began to sing and play her harp. 12 �Pin Pilr!HCHilPDR At<15kor D.M1cc Troupe. !He. wusm$$~5 Scene Ill: Arun and Soriya Falls in Love with White Apsara Arun (meaning sunrise) walks into the garden and sees the White Apsara and immediately falls in love. He picks a lotus flower and hands it to her to declare his love. The White Apsara takes the flower as a sign of friendship and thought the lotus was meant to be given as an offering at the temple. As Arun offers the the lotus, Soriya (meaning sunset) enters the garden and sees this. Soriya, also in love with the White Apsara, offers her a bouquet of orchids. The White Apsara also accepts the flowers as a sign of friendship and as she reaches for the orchids, Arun becomes angry and pushes the orchids out of Soriya's hands. This was the start of the conflict between Arun and Soriya. Scene IV: Destruction of the Garden of Paradise Arun and Soriya each called their army and began to battle and destroyed the garden. The White Apsara and her friends tried to clean up the garden but the battle continued on, which caused the war between Soriya and Arun to get worse. 13 �Angkor Dance Trowpc.

MISSIDrt The Angkor Dance Troupe connects communities through the preservation, education and innovation of Cambodian performing arts. HISTORY The Angkor Dance Troupe was formed in 1986 by Cambodian refugees of the Khmer Rouge holocaust. Lowell's Cambodian American community, estimated at more than 35,000 people, is the second largest in the country. When we resettled here, we brought a passion to carry on our cherished cultural traditions to practice and perform, to teach our children, and to see our art preserved for future generations of all cultures. We take our name from the great Angkor civilization, between 802 and 1432 AD when Cambodia was a dominant empire in Southeast Asia. Dance and music have always been prominent in Khmer society, but these ancient traditions were nearly eliminated when the Khmer Rouge controlled Cambodia in the 1970s. Artists were among those deliberately targeted for execution. More than 90% of the country's tradition bearers perished. Today, as Cambodians around the world struggle to emerge from decades of war and poverty, our people look to the rebirth and re-creation of dance as testimony to the endurance of our culture. "The Angkor Dance Troupe is a gem in the Commonwealth. The Massachusetts Cultural Council is proud to be a longtime supporter of Angkor for its beauty, value, and impact in preserving this rich cultural art form for the Lowell community and beyond" says Anita Walker, the Executive Director for the Mass Cultural Council. "The Angkor Dance Troupe is not only an organization promoting dance, it's an inspiration to all those who survived the Cambodian Genocide three decades ago, and a testament to the enduring power of the arts." 27 �� Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

When we resettled in Lowell, we brought a passion to carry on our cherished traditions - to practice and perform, to teach others, and to see the art form preserved for future generations of all cultures. The Angkor Dance Troupe is nationally recognized as one of the most accomplished Cambodian traditional arts ensembles performing today. The Troupe is directed by world-renowned master teachers and performs a body of work developed in concert with the Royal University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, considered the premier standard bearer for tradi tional Cambodian arts. The Angkor Dance Troupe is listed on the Massachusetts and New England States Touring Rosters and has performed at venues including the White House, First Night Boston, the National and Lowell Folk Festivals, the Berkshire Museum, Yale University, and Jacob's Pillow. 3 �A classical dancer performs a ceremony at Angkor Wat. The Troupe takes its name from the great Angkor Civilization, between 802 and 1432 AD, when Cambodia was a dominant empire in Southeast Asia . Dance, music, and drama have always been prominent in Khmer society, but these ancient traditions were nearly eliminated when the Khmer Rouge controlled Cambodia in the 1970's. Artists were among those deliberately targeted for execution and more than 90% of the country's tradition bearers perished. Today as Cambodians in Lowell and elsewhere struggle to emerge from decades of war and poverty, our people look to the rebirth and re-creation of dance as testimony to the endurance of Cambodian culture. 1 4 �Greater Lowell is home to the second-largest community of Cambodian Americans in the country. Cambodian dance performances provide a poignant reminder of the beauty and spirituality of Cambodian culture and help us develop a sense of home and community in a new homeland . While working in refugee camps during the 1980's, anthropologist Toni Shapiro observed that despite adverse conditions there was a passion to dance. "People who know only the rudiments of Khmer classical or folk dance movements taught others, and they staged small shows ... Wherever the Khmer were, some were dancing. In the camps along the ThaiCambodian border, a war zone in 1983, dancers dodged artillery shells on the way to practice or even during performances. Still they danced ... And thousands showed up to watch, sometimes perching on bunkers to get a better view." Congratulations to the "Coming Up Taller" award winners who were honored at the White House in 1999! from Paul Marion & Rosemary Noon 5 2 �e lassical dance is considered by some to be the "proleung" (soul) of the Khmer people. It has been connected to the sacred rituals of Cambodia for more than one thousand years. During the great Angkor civilization, dancers performed blessing ceremonies in temples to bring prosperity to the kingdom. Bas relief carvings at Angkor Wat depict heavenly dancers called Apsaras which were believed to connect the human world to the gods. Classical dance is sometimes called 'court dance' or Cambodia's 'royal ballet.' At one time, classical dance was the exclusive domain of royalty. Today this cherished art is enjoyed by audiences around the world. Classical dance combines highlystylized positions and gentle movements. Gestures are strictly defined and distinguished by intricate hand positions. 6 �louis l.

The dances honor skills that are typically undervalued in the rush toward westernization, such as fishing and rice farming. Dance motifs are commonly based on local legends and inspired by themes of nature as well as the ceremonies, and customs that shape the lives of Cambodian people. Distinctive, colorful costumes represent the traditional dress and cloth from the various regions and ethnic groups within Cambodia. Just as classical dance is ruled by a strict form and a prescribed language of movement, folk dance is spontaneous, created for emotional expressions. 8 �Best Wishes to the Angkor Dance Troupe and the Greater Lowell Cambodian Community Saints Memorial Medical Center Quality Care You Can Count On, Close To Home! ~ tt~t SAINTS MEMORIAL MEDICAL CENTER fJ _..

Since 1986, the Troupe has served approximately 300 young people, ranging in age from 4 to 18, who rigorously rehearse and participate in Troupe performances and events. Youth apprentices typically stay involved with the Troupe for at least 4 to 5 years. In 1999, the Angkor Dance Troupe was selected for the prestigious Coming Up Taller award from the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts.

We operate the program with a number of community partners including the ADAM project of Big Brother/Big Sister of Greater Lowell, the UMass Lowell College of Health Professions, the Lowell Community Schools Program, Community Teamwork, Inc., the Lowell office of DSS, the Lowell Police Department, and others. The Troupe helps Cambodian American young people make constructive choices in their lives by immersing them in the rich cultural heritage from which they come. Over the years, we have witnessed firsthand the value of cultural-based arts programming for yo uth. We have had several apprentices, for example, who were involved in gang activities when they joined the Troupe and who have since left their street life behind and are making re markable progress in their academic and personal lives. Through Angkor Dance Troupe, they develop a sense of discipl ine, self esteem, and pride in their Cambodian heritage. �Best Wishes to the Cambodian Community from STATE SENATOR Steven C.

At the age of eight, she was adopted by her aunt, Mrs. Khat, who was a royal dancer in the reign of King Norodom (Sovanakot). Ms. Khatna was specially gifted in the Cambodian classical art. She learned from her Aunt until she was 15, when she was chosen to be a dancer at the royal palace. She continued to study dance with the best teachers in the royal palace including Masters Learn and Dok Peay. As a young woman, Peou Khatna lived in the palace through the reign of King Sisowath (Rajanukot) until the end of the reign of King Manivong (Khatiyakot). She then left the palace and married Mr. Nuth Sin in 1944. She had two daughters, Sin Ny and Nuth Kantya. She was called to return to work with the Royal Dance Troupe by his Majesty, the King Norodom Sihanouk. She was in the royal Pleng Pin Peat (royal classical music group). As a member of Royal Dance Troupe, Mrs. Peou Khatna performed at many different official functions. She performed 55 times throughout various provinces in Cambodia, three times each in China and Indonesia, and once each India, France, Czechoslovakia, and Russia. The last performance was in 1970 when she accompanied the Cambodian Classical Dance Co. to the U.S. Surviving the 1975-1979 atrocities of the Khmer Rouge regime, she and her family went to Kao-I-Dang Refugee camp in Thailand in 1980, where she organized a Cambodian classical ballet ensemble. In 1981, the Troupe was resettled in the Washington D.C. area - the first Cambodian dance Troupe in the U.S. In 1983, Mrs. Khatna led the Troupe, known as the Khmer Traditional Arts Ensemble, in a U.S. tour funded by the National Endowment for the Arts. The Troupe performed throughout the U.S including California, Tennessee, Ohio, Florida, Rhode Island, and . Massachusetts. She directed performances at prestigious venues including the Kennedy Center, National Geographic, the Library of Congress, Museum of Natural History, Capitol Hill, and Wolf Trap. She received a Fellowship Award from the National Endowment for the Arts and a certificate of appreciation from President Ronald Reagan in 1986. In 1991, Venerable Preah Sumedhavansa Oung Mean Candavanno invited her to organize a cultural class at the Cambodian Buddhist Temple. She served as the Artistic Director for the Temple's dance programs until she passed away on Thursday, March 25, 1999 at Frederick Memorial Hospital, Washington D.C. (Interviewed by Mrs. Raci Say, Vice President of Cultural Committee.) Grandma, Your dedication and great commitment to the preservation and development of Cambodian culture will never be forgotten. May your soul and spirit be always with us and forever protect our heritage and traditional dance. Love always from your Grandson, Tim Chan Thou & Family 21 �LocalNews Mofff 's Story For three years, Mony Srey was a hard-core member of a notorious street gang .

As a community struggling to put down roots in a new homeland, Cambodian dance provides a poignant reminder of the beauty and spirituality of our culture and helps us build a more stable foundation for our children. As the heart and soul of the Cambodian American community in Lowell, the Troupe has served as a foundation and voice of our cherished cultural traditions. We are nationally recognized as one of the most accomplished and experienced of the U.S. - based Cambodian traditional arts ensembles and have received recognition from the Massachusetts Cultural Council, the National Endowment of the Arts, and the White House. Apsara Dancing Stones represents a monumental achievement in the artistic development and innovation of the Troupe. The story of Apsara Dancing Stones uses the traditions and techniques of the classical Khmer dance blended with contemporary dance drama elements. This interpretive dance allows the Angkor Dance Troupe to honor Cambodian history and culture while advancing the art form to a new level. As we debut this performance we look forward to all the opportunities that lie ahead the next 25 years. We hope you enjoy the show! Tim Thou Founder & Director Phousita Huy Artistic Director Linda Sou President of the Board �Story The Angkor Dance Troupe presents the premiere of Apsara Dancing Stones, a contemporary dance drama that embodies the beauty and culture of Cambodia. With Eastern and Western influences, this visual narrative combines an unparalleled performance of dance and music from modern and classical Cambodian styles. A young Cambodian/ American architectural student, Khemra, travels to Cambodia with a group of students to study the UNESCO world heritage site, Angkor Wat. He is unaware that the spirits inhabiting the stones of Angkor have a story to tell. Through the eyes of the Apsara, Khemera is about to embark on a magical journey into Cambodia's golden era of Gods and Goddesses.

The Troupe is the only nonprofit cultural group in Lowell, MA, whose sole mission is to preserve the traditions of Cambodian performing arts. The Angkor Dance Troupe develops and teaches Cambodian dance, promotes an understanding and appreciation of Cambodian culture, and provides a positive social and educational outlet for Cambodian youth. History The Angkor Dance Troupe was formed in 1986 by Cambodian refugees of the Khmer Rouge holocaust. Lowell's Cambodian American community, estimated at more than 35,000 people, is the second largest in the country. When we resettled here, we brought a passion to carry on our cherished cultural traditions to practice and perform, to teach our children, and to see our art preserved for future generations of all cultures. We take our name from the great Angkor civilization, between 802 and 1432 AD when Cambodia was a dominant empire in Southeast Asia. Dance and music have always been prominent in Khmer society, but these ancient traditions were nearly eliminated when the Khmer Rouge controlled Cambodia in the 1970s. Artists were among those deliberately targeted for execution. More than 90% of the country's tradition bearers perished. Today, as Cambodians around the world struggle to emerge from decades of war and poverty, our people look to the rebirth and re-creation of dance as testimony to the endurance of our culture. "The Angkor Dance Troupe is a gem in the Commonwealth. The Massachusetts Cultural Council is proud to be a longtime supporter of Angkor for its beauty, value, and impact in preserving this rich cultural art form for the Lowell community and beyond" says Anita Walker, the Executive Director for the Mass Cultural Council. "The Angkor Dance Troupe is not only an organization promoting dance, it's an inspiration to all those who survived the Cambodian Genocide three decades ago, and a testament to the enduring power of the arts:' �Contributor Sponsors. ,.w,m ,_, ~ swwws ,,_., Engineering a Sustainable Future Dorcas Grigg St. Onge Saito Supply, Co.

The production's international team included Arn Chorn-Pond, founder of Cambodian Living Arts, John Burt and Catherine Filloux, both based in New York City, Him Sophy of the Royal University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh, and other performers and choreographers from Cambodia, the US and Europe. The opera ran from April 27th-29th, not in any of those global cities but rather in Lowell. An extensive team worked for over a year to stage the production at Lowell High School. Angkor Dance Troupe was a vital part of bringing this show to Lowell , and to the thousands of people who saw it. For those Lowell residents of Cambodian heritage the opera was particularly poignant. It melded old and new art forms, it told the story of suffering and survival that so m a n y h a v e experienced, and it offered an examA scene from Elephants pie of new life, in the form of this artistic production. Angkor Dance Troupe trained performers in classical dance techniques, and worked with musicians from Cambodia and the US. Four Troupe dancers performed in the show. Phousita Huy led the Troupe's dancers. Her deeply moving performance reminded the Troupe of why she is so valuable to us; Ms. Huy's dancing mixed immense reserves of innate talent and grace with skill born of discipline and training. Peter Veth , Monica Veth and Sophy Leng joined Ms. Huy onstage. Monica Veth of Angkor Dance, said of "usually we dance to traditional music. Now we had to dance to music for the opera. The most memorable moment for me was the speech that Mr. Burt made backstage, before the play, using such nice words. I became very emotional." Sophy Leng said, "We were the only four dancers. Everyone eise was acting or rapping. The day of the show, before it started, we were preparing, getting dressed. The traditional Khmae band was setting up their instruments. We did a quick blessing ceremony. We knelt with our hands in a praying position and prayed that the opera would go well. The incense was burning-it was a special moment. I loved the feeling, and I hope that others can have this experience too." After 21 Years, An Endowment On October 31st, 2007, a dream came true: Angkor Dance Toupe established an endowment with the Greater Lowell Community Foundation. Thanks to generous and timely donations by our friends and supporters, the Troupe was able to meet the $5,000 minimum required by the Foundation to qualify for an additional $2,500 match . An Endowment is a fund that will last as long as the Troupe does, and will pay the Troupe a dividend every year, based on interest earned. All of this is to say that Tim Thou and Phousita Huy and the dedicated and talented dancers of the Troupe will have some guaranteed income every year. At this point it is small - perhaps only enough for a costume upgrade, or to pay for a Master Teach er workshop - but with the generosity we have seen from our dono rs and with the goodwill and guidance of the GLCF, we are confident that it will only grow with time. This is a true investment in the Troupe's future and in Lowell's cultural treasure. �PAGE 2 / - ------------------------ ' Apsaras Come to Life After 1,000 Years While this may seem like a headline from the National Enquirer (Cambodian Version), in reality it speaks to the artistic talent of the Troupe's Phousita Huy and Phnom-Penh based musician Him Sophy.

By performing for this group of families, Troupe members brought a taste of the Cambodian arts to an audience with a great appreciation for things Khmer.

This graduation season got us thinking. How does learning the delicate hand gestures of the Apsara dance prepare a person for the rest of their life? How does mastery of the rollicking rhythms of the coconut dance help with mastering the art of making a living? INSIDE THIS ISSUE: Follow the 3 Fibre: Mip-ating Silk MerrimackMekong Bridge is Strengthened 2 Empowermend South- We asked people in their early 20s who had danced with the Troupe for a number of years to reflect on how their time with the Troupe shaped who they are now. Here is what one of them said: Troupe. I am now the Di rector of Youth Development for the Lowell Community Health Center. I'm also the Assistant Program Director for Angkor Dance Troupe. And I am attending full time graduate school at the Springfield College School of Human Services in Boston, studying for a Master of Science in Human Services. Old Traditions and New Technologies prepare Angkor dancers like Linda Sou for their futures " I am Sopheap (Linda) Sou. I'm 24 years of age, 20 of which I spent with the Angkor Dance My time with the Troupe shaped me by supporting my leadership in both fields . The dance discipline has taught me dedication and commitment to what is near to my heart - culture, dance and community organizing. I am very pleased with where I am in my life. I would like to continue the work that I am doing. 2 Over 2000 Lowell students enjoy NEA-funded workshops east Asian Women and Girls Get a Boost NEW 3 Pins and Folds Rapt faces followed every gesture made by Monica Veth, as the crowd of over 600 middle schoolers sat unusually still and silent, absorbing the graceful demonstration of Cambodian dance. Linda Sou spoke with quiet authority and humor about dance, how it is learned and her own experiences as a child, as she gradually came to master over I 500 of the 5000 gestures that make up Cambodian classical dance. This compelling workshop was part of a joint endeavor between Angkor Dance Troupe and the middle schools of Lowell, facilitated by a $10,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. More than 2,000 students were treated to a lesson in Cambodian culture and a classical or monkey dance performance by the Troupe in the spring of 2008. All students completed a questionnaire about their experience - I00% positive! - and about 25% expressed an interest in learning Cambodian dance. Fifteen students in the Fine Arts Academy at Lowell High School participated in a 5-day residency where they learned the history of Cambodia and Cambodian dance. �PAGE ------------------------- ' 2 Merrimacl(-Mel(ong Bridge Strengthened ' I' ,._____' ., i -Willi •• =~r- . __ .. ·--·- . ~ Tl John Burt and Samkhann Khoeun with framed poster of the show The Mekong-Merrimack bridge becomes more solid, connecting our communities across many kinds of distances, not only geographical. The partners that put on the Cambodian rockopera Where Elephants Weep in Lowell last year met this June for the one-year anniversary of that event. The overwhelmingly enthusiastic response to the opera shocked even its producers, who watched the Lowell High School auditorium fill up night after night with people from many parts of New England and many walks of life. A year later, at Tep Thida restaurant on Chelmsford Street, producers, actors, dancers, and others met to revisit the wonder of last year's collaboration, and to talk about the future. The Cambodian Arts Alliance unveiled a program of cultural production goals for the next three years. Angkor Dance Troupe is delighted to play a pivotal role in continuing artistic creation, across the Mekong-Merrimack bridge. We are instrumental in commissioning a new work, the Apsara Dancing Stones, a dance-drama that brings the Apsara figure out of the ancient Cambodian past, and into the light of our own time. This new work shows her relevance today as an icon that embodies peace and beauty, harmony between opposing forces and a respect for the forces of nature and humanity alike. We look forward to sharing this creative process with many of last year's partners and with new artists and supporters along the way. _____ ,,,, ----------Empowerment for Southeast Asian Women and Girls ·.-, --• ~, 4 .

The Troupe and Museum have collaborated in the past and now plan a joint workshop and exhibit featuring the brilliant golds, blues, purples and greens of classical and folk dance cos tu mes. The beauty and the learning don 't stop there - the two institutions will invite audiences to engage with the dramatic stories behind the costumes, and with the silken threads that literally constitute them. The ATHM deepens our understanding of how plants and other fibres become the textiles we use in our daily lives - this collaboration will be no exception . By working together, we hope to in- troduce our audiences to the silk-making villages that produce the fabrics and the dyes, and to the people whose technical skill turns them into the garments you'll recognize in the dramatic legends brought to life by Khmer dance. ---------------------------- -, Parents and Friends Learn Ancient Costuming Techniques ... This spring, parents and friends of the Troupe took part in our firstever workshops on Cambodian cloth and costuming techniques. Knowledgeable instructors, led by Phousita Huy, rolled and squeezed the cloth into the shapes that make up the k'ben, one of the basic elements of the dance costume. Parents and friends also learned about different grades of silk, how to care for the cloth, and the kinds of performances associated with certain silks and patterns. In another workshop, our presenters showed many examples of traditional Cambodian clothing and spoke about cultural meanings of certain colors and fashions. Our participants deepened their knowledge of Cambodian culture and spruced up their appearance at the Cambodian New Year festivities. See page 2 for our next workshop series - this one on Cambodian cuisine. What better way to bring your family closer to what is beautiful (and delicious) in Cambodian culture?

Sophileak, a female deity who took pity on Princess Osa, went in search of Osa’s lover. She returned with portraits of many princes she had encountered, but none of them were the right one. The princess gave Sophileak her ring and scarf to continue on her search. In this scene, Sophileak finally finds Aunaruth, who recognizes the perfume on the scarf. Later, Sophileak will reunite the lovers.
