The spectacles
Christmas, The Horse and the Child
December 2012 - January 2013
For Christmas, the Musée Vivant du Cheval will be adapting another extraordinary tale for the equestrian theatre.
The living Horse Museum presents you a new show for Christmas time.
Every year in December, the Living Museum of the Horse lives for the time of The Advent and Christmas, and wishes to share this festive season with all their visitors. This is why, for the past 18 years the museum has, each year, introduced new tales of Christmas for their 20 spectacle horses, as well as the 30 who live permanently in the Grand Stables.
Mad races, dizzy rearing, impudent leaping, supple piaffe and sweet passage - all the riding school 'airs' are brought together to amuse the young and old alike! Under the magnificent baroque dome, spectators will discover all the facets of the horses and their riders. Then, a succession of numbers from the equestrian theatre which string together to form a mixture of poetry, humour, daring, fantasy, gymnastics and prowess in which the eagerly awaited Father Christmas has pride of place.
