This is a kind of outdoors entertainment that is put on to please the masses. It is what people used to watch in the old days before the era of television and soap operas. There is plenty of fun and laughter but also plenty of singing. It is easy to spot a likay from a mile away. First there are the very bright lights and extremely loud sound system. Then when you get nearer you will notice the actors are wearing brightly coloured costumes that twinkle under the lights. These shows are often put on for free at funerals or other events. If you like a particular actor or actress you can give them a garland of paper money. text/html 2006-04-26T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.thailandvideoblogs.com http://www.thailandvideoblogs.com/content/view/21/29/ When the Maeklong train arrives in Samut Songkhram, market vendors have to quickly pull back their produce and awnings to allow the train to pass.

The winning team is the one that can catch up with their opponents.
