Charming and unique little series that is virtually unknown to everyone

This charming little two-episode comedy is one of the four stories of the Drama For All project, each a modern take on a societal issue or change that had rarely received media attention. Among the four, this one probably gets the least attention, as it's probably the hardest for viewers to follow, due to the use of Likay traditional performance and numerous cultural references specific to the Thai society. But it is quite well-written and hilarious if you are willing to learn about the culture.

Story
A failed movie screenwriter enters a Likay troupe, believing that he could make quick bucks only to find out that the troupe is struggling and may have to be disbanded soon if they can't attract more viewers. The goofy screenwriter comes up with outlandish ideas for the troupe, such as blending K-drama, Japanese manga, Star Wars and the Chinese story of Journey to the West with the traditional Likay performance. By revamping the whole show (and seriously flirting with the lead actress), he seems to be giving them even more trouble than what they already have. But they are desperate enough to try anything at this point.

Writing
While extremely silly at the surface, writing is quite clever and there are multiple layers to the story and each of the play they perform. The humors are very Thai in style.

Acting
The leading actor is convincing as an eccentric writer. He is charming and good with comedy. The lead actress and a few actors are probably Likay performers in real life, as they feel authentic in all the Likay scenes.

Production
Nothing fancy. It's not a high budget series. But at least we get to see Likay performance, which is an opportunity many viewers don't have in real life.

Conclusion
You might not understand everything and some meanings are lost in translation. So it can be hard to follow. But this series is so unique you won't find anything like it. So, yeah, go watch it.
