Thrilling, high energy, and emotional all at the same time. Plus it's a great charity

A great circus showing the amazing skills of Cambodian performers. We went to the "Eclipse" performance and loved it. It was truly a show of great acrobatic (and not only!) talent, with live music and translation in English provided on the screens. We loved everything - if we are ever back to Cambodia we will surely save some time to visit Phare again. The tickets are quite inexpensive for such a high-energy, well-prepared show. I have spent a lot of money at the gift shop though - they sell products made by local artisans there, worth every dollar :). Thank you for the unforgettable experience, Phare!

What a marvelous experience!!! The team of performers at the Phare Circus were all mind blowing. From the gymnasts to the musicians, they are all so multi talented and play various roles so so well. Loved this show to every bit!! If you're in Siem Reap, you can't miss this show. Highly recommended!

We absolutely loved this place! We saw the show based in a bar setting and were extremely impressed with every single persons performance on stage who put their heart and soul into every scene.

(Translated by Google) Overall, the show is really good. The seating area allows everyone to have a good view of the stage, and fans are handed out at the beginning to keep cool. I didn't eat there, but there's a small restaurant where you can see a show with young children who will undoubtedly become the future performers of the circus. I saw the show "Same Same But Different," and the script is very well done. The plot is easy to follow, highlighting the differences between Cambodians and Westerners. The show is full of humor, and you need a sense of self-deprecation because the teasing is very good-natured. However, I didn't really feel the "same same" spirit. Throughout the show, Westerners are contrasted with Cambodians, and we never see our commonalities, which is a shame. The show will take you through a range of emotions, from joy to sadness and then back to joy again. I was also a little disappointed by the second half of the show. I have to say, the first 20 minutes are incredibly intense. I've never seen a show like it in my life; you spend 20 minutes laughing and smiling non-stop. It's impressive, with some truly incredible acrobatics. But after those first 20 minutes, the energy drops and doesn't come back. Also, I think $18 for an hour is a bit pricey. I think $15 would be a more reasonable price. Despite these minor flaws, we still had a great evening, and the artists really put their hearts into it. (Original) Dans l’ensemble le spectacle est vraiment bon. Les infrastructures permettent à chacun de bien voir la scène, on nous distribue des éventails au début pour se rafraîchir. Je n’ai pas mangé sur place mais il y a un petit restaurant où on peut voir un spectacle avec des jeunes enfants qui deviendront sans doute les futurs artistes du cirque. J’ai vu le spectacle « same same but different », le scenario est tres bien réalisé. On comprend très facilement le déroulement du spectacle qui met en lumière les différences entre les cambodgiens et les occidentaux. Le spectacle est bourré d’humour et il faut avoir de l’autodérision car les moqueries sont très bienveillantes. Cependant je n’ai pas réellement ressenti l’esprit « same same ». Tout le long du spectacle les occidentaux sont opposés aux cambodgiens et on ne voit jamais nos points communs ce qui est dommage. Le spectacle vous fera traverser de nombreuses émotions vous faisant passer de la joie à la tristesse puis à la joie de nouveau. J’ai également été un peu déçu par la deuxième moitié du spectacle. Il faut dire que les 20 premières minutes sont tellement intenses. Je n’avais jamais vu de spectacle comme ça deuxième ma vie, vous passez 20 minutes a rire et sourire non stop. C’est impressionnant il y a des acrobaties vraiment incroyables. Mais après ces 20 premières minutes, l’énergie redescend et ne remonte plus. Aussi je trouve que 18$ pour 1 heure est un peu cher. Je pense que 15$ serait un prix plus correct. Malgré ces quelques défauts on passe quand même une super soirée et les artistes mettent vraiment tout leur cœur à l’ouvrage.
