Here is something very cool...for several reasons: This is the Thai dance "Thousand Hand Bodhisattva (Guan Yin / 千手观音)" done by a virtual army of hearing impaired Chinese dancers. The reasons it struck me as so incredible are because it is Thai culture performed by the Chinese (they often favor their own culture), it is exquisitely done, it is performed by deaf people (and many people believe China does little for those in their country with disabilities) and, finally, it is performed as a 'triad'...showing not only the front-facing effect, but also two side views...which allow the viewer to see how it is done. There's also something extra at the end. Some additional performance art on a refitted stage resembling a lotus pond. Truly amazing! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did... ^_^ (y)
