Artist Information

Ta Lent Show Theatre

Website

Ta Lent Show Theatre was established in 2020 amidst the pandemic by Ta Nuttapol Kummata, a renowned mime artist from Thailand. He developed, nurtured, and expanded the Ta Lent Show Theatre with young artist, May Nattaporn Thanhahuad.

Ta Nuttapol Kummata

Ta studied pantomime when he was 20 years old with Paitoon Laisakul, the founder of Kon Na Khao, a Thai pantomime group. 

 

In 1999, Ta co-founded the new trio pantomime group Babymime, which has since become well-known in Thailand. They have performed in many countries around the world such as Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Sweden and Scotland. Since then, Ta has consistently performed pantomimes for over 20 years. He was awarded Best Performance by a Male Artist for Noname at Bangkok Theatre Festival in 2017, and later Best Performance for Children and Youth for PUPPETOMIME at Bangkok Theatre Festival in 2018. 

 

In 2020, Ta left Babymime to pursue his career as a solo artist with the moniker Ta Lent Show. 

May Nattaporn Thanhahuad

May graduated as a film major, but also holds interest in performance, especially pantomime.

 

May started working with Ta in 2020 during the pandemic. She supports the shooting and editing process for their online festival. After the pandemic, she started performing pantomime on stage with Ta in Lady&Gentle Mime. She still collaborates with Jae and Ta in the group named Puppetomime, which has participated in Pesta Boneka, Indonesia in 2022. Presently, she still works on pantomime and object theatre.
