Charya Burt Cambodian Dance: The Rebirth of Apsara: Cambodia 2025 Excerpts.

This is the second iteration of the original production of The Rebirth of Apsara involving all professional dancers integrating more Khmer language and music into an 80 minute production that combines much of the The Rebirth of Apsara: Beyond Genocide with past elements from the original production along with new text and choreography to tell the story how Khmer arts has been and continues to be transmitted from generation to generation from a more distinctly Khmer lens.
