In the opening week of the event, Phare the Cambodian Circus from Cambodia performed a brand-new piece called "Khmer Angkor Village" for the audience. This act thoroughly depicted rural life in Cambodia while also using elements of Hinduism, Buddhism, and elven beliefs to create magical and exotic tales.
