The Bunditpatanasilpa Institute is a key higher education institution focusing on preserving and promoting Thai cultural arts.
The dance took place as part of Kew Garden's Orchid Festival.
The visit by the Bunditpatanasilpa Institute dancers was part of a Thai cultural promotion tour to enhance Thai-UK friendship and relations and to project a good image of Thailand to the international community.
From the event flyer:
"Mak Gup Gaep หมากกั๊บแก้บ is a traditional game of the Northeastern part of Thailand, commonly played by women. The women use a pair of long and short sticks to play this game, thereby making the sound of Gap Gaep which reflects the cheerful sentiments and wisdom of the people. In this dance the performers use a pair of long and short sticks to produce a tempo of percussion, with lively music."
