Chum Show is a cultural performance inspired by the legendary Bãi Tiên land, bringing together three cultural traditions—Cham, Central Highlands ethnic groups, and Kinh—through the language of contemporary art.
At the heart of the performance is the image of the “Chum” (ceramic jar), an everyday object carrying profound symbolism of the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. In particular, in the Cham language and some Central Highlands indigenous languages, “Chum” also means “kiss”—a symbol of love, healing, and human connection.
Highlights of the Program
The Convergence of Three Cultural Currents: The cultural traditions of the Cham, Central Highlands ethnic groups, and Kinh converge in a vibrant musical composition featuring traditional instruments, enriched by the distinctive sounds of ceramic jars, coral, and bronze.
A Breathtaking Fusion of Art Forms: A mesmerizing combination of gravity-defying aerial rope acrobatics and wild, mystical dances performed by indigenous artists.
Mountain, Sea, and the Chum: The recurring imagery of the Mountain, Sea, and Chum runs throughout the performance, telling a story of love, connection, and the eternal cycle of rebirth.
