After 42 Years Away, Cambodian Royal Ballet Performs in New York

As part of the Season of Cambodia arts festival now underway in New York, a US audience had a chance to see Cambodia's Royal Ballet. Princess Buppha Devi, who leads the troupe, told VOA Khmer in an interview that she was thrilled with the New York turnout. The last time the Royal Ballet performed in New York was 1971, as Cambodia was being embroiled in war. VOA Khmer's Reasey Poch talks to the Princess at the VOA Studio in New York City.
