A pictorial history of the first eighteen years of Opera Siam, the maverick Thai opera company, lavishly illustrated.
From its beginnings as a company producing works "akin to community theater" to creations, in the words of London's Opera Magazine "as good as *any *production from any house in Europe" — this book tells the tale in full color photographs. From a kabuki-based *Turn of the Screw *to a Chagall-inspired *Bohème, *from mainstream works like *Butterfly *and *The Magic Flute *to Southeast Asian premieres like *Brundibar *and *The Diary of Anne Frank *to the first Wagner productions in the region to the groundbreaking operas of its artistic director, Somtow Sucharitkul. this book is a complete record.
