THE INCLUSION of the first Bangkok International Performing Arts Meeting (Bipam) to the annual 14th Bangkok Theatre Festival (BTF) last month proved overwhelming positive. Among the preparatory activities was a performing arts expo held in early September at K-Bank Siam Pic-Ganesha Centre of Performing Arts, targeting high-school students interested in tertiary education and careers in this field. “TPAM is truly driving international contemporary performing arts forward, always presenting something new and inspiring. After many long talks with performing arts professionals here, I decided to come up with a different approach,” Should explains. Having attended numerous international performing arts festivals and exchange platforms, though never TPAM, myself, I was especially delighted to welcome this new baby.
