What has changed
The SUPPORT Foundation’s 2026 khon production, “Sida”, is scheduled to open at the Thailand Cultural Centre in Bangkok on 5 November and run through 10 December. A fresh NNT report, carried by Pattaya Mail on 2 November, describes a media preview ahead of the opening.
The dates and venue also match an official invitation published by the Office of the Basic Education Commission. Tickets are directed through ThaiTicketMajor, with further information available from the foundation’s Khon Performance channel.
A story from the Ramakien
This year’s production centres on Sida, a principal figure in the Thai epic Ramakien. The story follows her experiences of love, separation, hardship and loyalty, leading to a trial of her innocence.
Khon combines masked dance-drama with detailed costume, mask-making, choreography and theatrical presentation. The preview report says this production brings traditional performance crafts together with modern stage techniques.
The people behind the performance
The foundation’s annual productions form part of the effort to preserve and pass on Thai performing-arts traditions. The latest report highlights young performers alongside the practitioners and artisans whose work supports the staging.
For visitors considering a cultural evening in Bangkok, the run offers a scheduled opportunity to see this form of Thai theatre. The announced date range describes the production season; it should not be read as a promise of a performance at every time or on every day.
