Types of Traditional Thai Dance in Man Suang
We see two styles of traditional Thai dance-drama (Lakhon Ram) in Man Suang: Lakhon Nok and Lakhon Nai.
Lakhon Nok
The film opens with Khem performing the role of Sang Thong in what looks like a local event for a lord.
Tumblr media
And we also see him in the iconic golden outfit for his performance as Phra Lor.
Tumblr media
Lakhon Nok is traditionally a folk style dance drama performed by commoners.
The theatre took place away from royal palaces and was often performed at temple fairs.
Originally, Lakhon Nok was an all male dance style but these days women perform it too.
The stories are fast paced and the movements are typically more relaxed and not as refined as those you would find in Lakhon Nai or Khon, the two dance styles most associated with royal performance.
Costumes can be very simple or more elaborate.
The stories are often based on Buddhist Jataka tales and folklore with fantastical creatures like ogres, mermaids and spirits in abundance.
Traditionally any kind of story could be told except The Ramakien, Inao and Unnarut, which were reserved for royal performances of Lakhon Nai or Khon.
Popular examples of Lakhon Nok include:
Sang Thong
Tumblr media
Phra Lor/Law
Tumblr media
Phra Aphai Mani
Tumblr media
Lakhon Nai
Wichiendej asks to see Khem as Inao, the hero of the Lakhon Nai dance drama.
Tumblr media
Lakhon Nai was originally performed exclusively for the royal court by an all female group.
We do overhear Mae Kru Phikul arguing about this in the background of one scene. Shortly after this time period men would be allowed to perform in Lakhon Nai as well but I imagine it was still quite a transgressive act in this tumultuous time frame.
Only the king and members of his court were allowed to watch but during this time period, Rama 3 turned against royal dance as an art form and ordered a stop to both Lakhon Nai and Khon performances. This is likely the reason that Mae Kru Phikul ends up at Man Suang.
Characteristics of Lakhon Nai include extremely refined dance movements, adhering to traditional Thai aesthetic principles.
This is why we see Khem going to such drastic measures in his training montage, because he would be required to dance to a much more technical higher standard than he would have had to do when performing Lakhon Nok plays.
Costumes are elaborate and exquisite as befits a royal court.
The plots of Lakhon Nai come from three stories:
The Ramakien (a Thai version of the Ramayana)
Tumblr media
Inao (The prince of the Panji tales.)
Tumblr media
Unnarut (stories of the son of Krishna.)
Tumblr media
There are other types of Lakhon dance styles but these are the two that are showcased in Man Suang.
I was a little surprised we didn't see Khon, the famous masked dance drama style of Thailand but it was another dance form originally exclusive to royal courts so I can also understand why it didn't show up in the film.

hii, first of all your art is absolutely gorgeous and you are so talented 💞!! i was just wondering if you had any advice on how you draw curly and textured hair? no worries if you don’t have the time to answer this!!
hi thank you!!! sorry this took me forever HAHA i wanted to put together a coherent detailed thing but realized i uhhh honestly don’t think that hard abt it when i draw
Tumblr media
i tend to just plan out the hair parting n hairline
and then i just simplify n stylize curls by only drawing the front half of the curl? like this ^^ i like drawing them in an implied sort of style
rest of advice i’d give is to just observe how real hair sits (ie looser curls being more visible from further away n coming off as bigger etc etc) n how other artists draw hair !

Thinking about the fact that A.B.A's creator (I wanna call him Dr. Paracelsus to differentiate him from key Paracelsus) could very well still be alive out there somewhere, cause he wasn't said to have been killed, he was just taken by a military organization (?!) for his skills-
And while I don't think they ever confirmed a connection, it feels like almost too obvious that he'd be in some way tied to the creation of Frasco II, given that it's called Frasco II
