Kentucky Horse Park hosts ‘The Spirit of the Horse’
production

This
holiday season, the Kentucky Horse Park welcomes “: A
Holiday Equine Extravaganza” to the Alltech Arena on November 29-30. An original
equine entertainment production, “The Spirit of the Horse” is produced and
performed by the KYB-GPE Equine Theater Production Company.

The show tells a magical holiday-themed story on horseback
with orphans and villains, reining, dressage and liberty work, all in an
hour-long production that will delight audiences of all ages.

World-class horses — including three-time U.S. Dressage
Federation Horse of the Year and Grand Prix-level dressage superstar GP Raymeister
— are brought together in this truly entertaining and original live
production.

Featured riders include Kim and Yvonne Barteau of KYB Dressage, who
have entertained audiences at the Arabian Nights Dinner Theater in Orlando,
Florida, and have appeared on the “Today” show. Joining them will be Australia’s
Dan James of Double Dan Horsemanship, a world-renowned entertainer and equine
performer.

In addition to the show, guests may purchase tickets for a
“meet and greet” with the stars of the production at the holiday Barn Tour prior
to the show each evening, and tickets are also available for the Post Production
Party where guests can enjoy food and drink and, again, mingle with the horse
and rider performers.

The show is presented at 7 p.m. (EST) on November
29 and 30, with the Barn Tour available from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. each evening, and
the Post Production Party taking place immediately after each performance at the Alltech Arena.

Show tickets range from $25 for VIP seating to $15 general
admission for adults, and $10 for children ages 3 to 12. Barn Tour tickets are
$5 for adults and complimentary for one accompanying child when purchased with a
show ticket. Tickets to the Post Production Party to “meet and greet” the cast
are $25 per person, adult or child.
