Simon's Cabaret


I'm plagiarizing most of this because it's better than what I wrote. But for more pictures, go to:

Let me take you by the hand to Amazing Thailand! This is the blast-off tune at Simon's Cabaret Chiangmai and, before touchdown 90 minutes later; you will have been thrilled and enraptured by the spectacular journey of Simon's Dream.

Upon entering the theatre, I was surprised by the size. It is huge (seating for 800 patrons) and gives the feeling of being inside a mysterious grotto or jungle clearing. Palms, ferns and greenery surround the amphitheater, mist drifts and water cascades from a rocky mountaintop. A moat fronts the wide, triple-stage performance area and seating is comfortably cushioned terrace style with plenty of legroom.

Show time the lights dim and the audience is launched into Simon's Dream and a performance of illusion. You might think you are at the Follies Bergere, Les Girls or a Las Vegas show but this is Chiangmai's own. The ladyboys look more feminine than the real thing.

The costumes are exotic, colorful and lavish, as are the settings on the wide, triple-stage. State-of-the-art sound and lighting systems plus other special effects intensify this magical world of illusion. The Finale brought all the performers on stage in a brilliant and bewildering rainbow of glitter and glamour and it was all too obvious that the audience didn't want to waken from Simon's Dream. But the illusion was over; or was it? As patrons left the theatre, several of the not-so-boy-boys were waiting to bid a farewell. Greetings and laughter were exchanged, and photographs taken as departing guests puzzled over what was illusion and what was not.

The mysterious, wonderful world of Simon's Dream is a must to see. It is a stylish cabaret show which all the family will enjoy (even your Maiden Aunt) in a multimillion baht extravaganza of fun, excitement and entertainment.
