In September 2024, the Royal Thai Embassy in Copenhagen led a group of young Thai artists from Moradokmai Theatre Community to visit 3 international schools in Denmark to perform and exchange cultural knowledge. The young artists performed at International School of Hellerup in Copenhagen for approximately 50 students between the ages of 4-9 years, Viking International School in Ballerup for approximately 40 students between the ages of 7-9 years, and International People’s College in Helsingør for approximately 50 highschool students between the ages of 15-18 years. The troupe performed a musical play in English featuring a Thai masked dance or “Khon” of the episode “The Battle of Maiyarap and the Fall of Thotsakan” from the epic Ramayana, where the students participated in the play and showed great interest in learning about Thai performing arts. After the show, the students were also given the opportunity to try out the Thai musical instruments.
 
In addition, Moradokmai Theatre Community also presented the musical “The Almost Tragedy of Sudsakorn and Macbeth” in English, which was about the adventures of Sudsakorn, a fictional character from the literature of Thailand's best-known poet Sunthorn Phu, combining with Macbeth’s, a play by William Shakespeare, at Holmbladsgade Cultural Centre in Copenhagen for approximately 30 attendees, who enjoyed the performance and Thai contemporary music.
 
The Moradokmai Theatre Community was founded by Master or Kru Chang, Mr. Janaprakal Chandruang, a Thai National Artist in Performing Arts (Film and Drama) in 2019. The performers are home school students who live together as a community and receive training in performing arts, plays and music with the aim to become artists for people and to promote Thai arts and cultures abroad.
