Presented by

Thai Theatre Foundation

Foundation exists to support and strengthen contemporary Thai theater and theater makers and to foster collaboration between Thai and US theater artists. We welcome artists and audiences across lines of identity, background, and experience. We believe cultural representation must come with fair access to space, support, and compensation. We uplift Thai and Thai-American theater makers not only through visibility but also through care, resources, and collaboration. We tell Thai and Thai-American stories not just to be heard but to open space, build relationships, and honor the people behind the work.

Note of Gratitude

I would like to give a big thank you to the Thai Theatre Foundation for all your support—you’re truly uplifting the Thai artist community in such a powerful way, both collectively and individually. Patti, my producer, I couldn’t do this without you.

Thank you for holding this whole thing together. Eli and Angela—thank you for sharing your love of music and your incredible talent with this show.

You both are such a beautiful human being, inside and out, and I’m so lucky to have you helping me bring this to life. Thank you Keng, Karel, Proud, Kimberly, Pam, Ezra, Warut, Plum, Sivan, mom, my family, and all my people—thank you for always being there for me, and pushing me to my best. I’m so lucky to be surrounded by such love. And thank you to everyone who’s here. I’m truly grateful for your support and love.

As I continue on my journey, I’d also deeply appreciate any donations. It all goes toward fueling my art, my dreams, and yes—very real things like immigration fees. Every bit of support helps me keep going. Thank you for being part of this journey.”
