Monkey business

In October 2005 Amrita Performing Arts, a dance/theatre company that are preserving and renewing Cambodia's ancient cultural heritage came to the Melbourne International Festival to perform "Weyreap's Battle". The show was a huge success and a handful of lucky Australians promptly booked a place to the FREE performance workshop held by members of Amrita. Lees learnt to dance like an apsara and I took to monkey moves like it was second nature!
Here we are learning to stretch our fingers in a particularly awkward gesture...
