The whole trip was amazing! From the pick up to the drop off, couldn't complain. Was a little worried there wasn't going to be any food, but they had some cooks ready to make some Cambodia food or burgers. Show itself started off a little slow, but definitely won our hearts by the end!
Would definitely at least spend the extra bucks for the b and a seats next time.
Our driver, Sam, was extremely helpful with additional information we had about Cambodia.

The performers were interactive and incredibly talented. The show told a story whilst the performers completed impressive stunts.

Amazing show! This is a must do activity if you have a free evening in Siem Reap! With hotel pick up and drop off, it was even better. I booked the seating A and was not disappointed.

1. The Circus: This isn't really a Circus because there is hardly any circus skills in it. The hour-long performance is mostly acting, and if you cannot see the two small screens wayup in the rigging with subtitles on them, you have no idea what is being said. And if you are looking up high at the screens, you then can't see what the performers are doing which defeats the object. The screens would have been better located lower on the king poles instead.

The "storyline" is bizarre and quite childish. There were only a few circus acts: trapeze, silks, juggling and hand balance which took up around 20 minutes of the entire show. The rest was acting.
I have to be critical that the young man that did the silk act, went too far up into the dome, high above the rigging that it was impossible to see what he was doing because it was obstructed.

The ticket price of $28 was very high for what the performance actually was. it was poor value for money in my opinion. There were several people that actually walked out throughout the show.

The gift shop is also very expensive. They were selling 8mm gemstone bead bracelets for $10 when you can buy them for £2-3 in the UK.

2: The driver: who took us there and back was very nice and polite, and he arrived early to pick us up.

Must see for a great cause! Love the enthusiasm and skills of the performers and musicians! It was short but entertaining, definitely a better way to spend the evening than being at the local watering hole, knowing it provides free education and vocational training for children with disadvantaged backgrounds.

This experience is a highlight of our visit in Siem Reap! The pick up was smooth with great company and AC in the car (always great in 90+ Fahrenheit weather) and the show was phenomenal. The music was spectacular, the storytelling was beautiful in the midst of the fantastic feats of bravery and artistry. We can't rave highly enough about the experience. Mr. Sovady was very accommodating when picking us up and so very friendly! I'd definitely book with him again to see the next Phase Circus act if I ever get the opportunity again to visit!

The Circus act was entertaining and a great show to watch. The performers were excellent and it was good to support something that educates and gives a future to local Cambodian people. The show was 1 hour 15mins and was enough for us.
