Apassionata: The Beginning is coming to North America

Oh my. This looks like a show geared for horse people. According to the Apassionata site:

APASSIONATA has been Europe’s most popular live arena show for nearly a decade, thrilling more than five million fans across 15 countries with a breathtaking display of the beauty and the bond between horse and rider.

Now APASSIONATA comes to North America to take audiences through a magical adventure featuring more than 40 horses, with exhilarating equine stunts by the world’s best performers. Breeds from Friesians to Bretons – some rarely seen in North America – and their riders were brought from Europe to create this evocative theatrical event. From trick riding to liberty dressage, these teams have honed their craft on a single breed for generations. With graceful horsemanship and enchanting music, this equestrian sensation captivates families and horse lovers alike.

Directed by Scott Faris (“Walking with Dinosaurs”) and featuring an award-winning Broadway creative team, APASSIONATA “THE BEGINNING” is sure to give audiences of all ages an unforgettable experience.

Apassionata is going to tour the U.S. starting in April 2012 (tour dates and locations). Tickets seem reasonable for a show like this. Prices start at about $25 (plus fees) and go up to as much as you want to pay.

I want to go — if the dates don’t conflict with horse camp.

    Some guys get belly button lint, and Isis just gets gunk. About two weeks ago, Isis had a swelling on the right side of her abdomen. Not very large — maybe about a hand long by 2-3 fingers wide. I used a topical tea-tree oil and hydrocortisone ointment on it. The swelling went away after…

    It’s been a while since I wrote about Kasane’s progress on the Great Path Towards Riding. She’s learned quite a bit this winter: left/right/whoa/back while ground driving, bits aren’t nasty when given with treats, and dressage saddles aren’t scary. All of the exercises Kasane and I do build towards riding. Voice commands when lunging teach…

    Breezy was happy to see us today, but not so happy to get on the trailer (took some convincing that we were going home). Her welcoming party was very relieved to see her and get her discharge papers from the hospital. The vets removed one bone chip. Breezy had three small incisions where the surgery…
