| Abstract | This study examines the evolution of lakhon rong, a form of Thai musical theater, within the context of Siam's socio-political and cultural changes during the early 20th century, particularly under the influence of Western modernization. The research focuses on the Nakhon Bantoeng Troupe, exploring how adaptations in lakhon rong performances reflected and contributed to the broader societal efforts towards crafting a modern Thai identity. The integration of Western musical elements with traditional Thai forms exemplifies strategic cultural negotiation, aligning with theories of adaptation and appropriation. Through an analysis of play scripts and historic recordings, this study highlights how cultural practices are dynamically redefined in response to global influences, thus offering insights into the mechanisms of cultural resilience and innovation in non-colonized contexts. |
