Now, through the wind and the clouds, she shall meet the horse appearing as The Epic Horse Show - Troy.

The Definition of Horse Show
Horse Show, as a unique form of live performance among the others, and has risen to prominence in recent years. In the show market, Horse Show has received considerable public acclaim worldwide, more importantly, the commercial operation has reached maturity as well. However, the relevant projects in China are rather rare, and original creations are rather blank.

Regarding the concept of Horse Show, we have to mention the 'primogenitor' of Horse Show - Circus. Circuses were almost exclusively demonstrations of equestrian skills with a few other kinds of acts to relate the horsemanship performances. Nowadays, a circus includes trained animals, trapeze acts, acrobats, magic, etc. By comparison, various differences remain in terms of the concept between Horse Show and Circus. Due to the focus of Horse Show is on the combination of performance of horses and actors/actresses. Unlike the traditional performances, Horse Show delineates a new interpretation, honored as Equestrian Ballet. It integrates with equestrian, drama, opera, dancing and also special effects as one，It is an extraordinarily astonishing and artistic performance, and it will certainly bring the audience into a new bright world. Horse Show is then become a new combination of art and sports, which owns the great advantage unparalleled among the other performances.

The ancient Greek theatre and the ancient Greek drama are an indivisible whole, and this indivisible whole brings a profound influence on the later development of western culture and drama. In all art histories, it is also incomparable. The legend of Troy is from this land, our hope is to absorb the aesthetic elements of the ancient Greek theatre, and to utilise the current high-end stage techniques in order to create the ultimate experience, and also for showing our respects to those special requirements to perform a Horse Show. We hope each of our audience once they walk into the theatre, they could temporarily say good bye to the reality, travel in time and space, and experience the combination of magnificence and desolation, the power of aesthetic.
