Chimera...a legend brought to life.
The greatest show on 120 flashing hooves!
Never before has there been such a lavishly costumed spectacle of equine fun, thrills, drama, dance and skill set to specially arranged music and performed by the largest and most popular equestrian touring theatre show in Europe.
Chimera...the classic 2000-year-old tale of good and evil, which became the legend of St George and the Dragon and is now the theme for the most ambitious production to date by SPIRIT OF THE HORSE. Originating in Greek mythology the fable was spread by travellers as they journeyed to distant lands. The story was so popular in Russia and England that St George became the patron saint.
The only way the evil of Chimera... can be defeated is through the intervention of a very special mount! So welcome the return of one of Spirit of the Horse`s most popular equestrian stars - PEGASUS - "the winged horse". With a wingspan of more than 20ft, this gentle and astounding fantasy horse is chosen to rescue the beautiful Delphine and challenge Chimera - part lion, part serpent part goat.
You will be astounded by the sheer size of the amazing Chimera, which was created for the show by Mahogany - the Harlsden-based carnival costume designers. But this is more than just "a costume" it is a `living` kinetic sculpture which uses the human body to magnify and stylise the movements to create unique art form. Designed by Clary Salandy and engineered by Michael Ramdeen, the four-meter high creation requires three highly skilled operators to choreograph the movements. Mahogany supplies carnival costumes world wide as is best known for its major artistic contribution to the Notting Hill Carnival.
Spirit of the Horse is not just for horse lovers - it is a show like no other occupying a special place in the hearts and minds of audiences of all ages.
Other equine stars appearing in CHIMERA - Spirit of the Horse`s fourth production celebrating the unique bond between man and his oldest and most trusted ally - the horse, include:
From Spain the stunning Andalusian horses and riders of EL CAPELLA PEREZ ACADEMIA ECUESTRE DE VALENCIA will be performing their dazzling Los Caballos Nobles de Espaņa led by Antonio Perez. With their unique style, flair and passion for the best in equestrian performance the Capella Perez riders know no equal.
THE LEGEND OF CHIMERA features the BLACK RIDERS on their outstanding FRIESIANS - THE ROYAL HORSES OF EUROPE - and the SPIRIT OF THE HORSE FORMATION TEAM.
Also making a welcome return to the Equestrian Theatre arena is the Spanish National Folklore artiste, NOELIA AARGON and THE SPIRIT OF THE HORSE DANCE COMPANY.
You will thrill to the elegance and style of the Minuet in the Court of St Petersburg performed by Sir Robert Fossett`s Arabian Stallions presented by Nikki Fossett. Without one word of command, Nikki controls her prized stallions as if communicating by telepathy as they execute a complex choreographed dance routine.
Staged in the superb Equestrian Touring Theatre specially designed by the world`s leading maker of contemporary tensile structures and choreographed to a specially arranged musical score blending spectacle, dramatic action, poetic motion, and awe-inspiring lighting effects, SPIRIT OF THE HORSE, weaves the magic of myth and legend in a equestrian celebration making your visit to CHIMERA a unique theatrical experience and an unforgettable event.
Created and directed by PHILLIP GANDEY, one of Europe`s most respected directors of spectacular live family entertainment and NIKKI FOSSETT, the internationally acclaimed equestrian presenter and producer, SPIRIT OF THE HORSE is an experience that touches the soul. This is truly a world-class show appealing to all ages - and not just those who enthuse about horses.
Spirit of the Horse is not just a show - it is a total experience. In the well-appointed foyer, before the performance and during the interval enjoy the wide range of beverages (alcoholic and non alcoholic) and hot and cold snacks. The new Café Des Artistes with its exclusive and unique atmosphere offers a new dimension in hospitality.
After the performance, you our audience has the opportunity to visit the specially designed stables to meet the equine stars and their human partners - a heart-warming finale to an unforgettable experience.
