APASSIONATA - Magic Encounters between Men and Horse - "Together Forever"

With the new show "Together Forever" main character Daniel takes everybody on a fantastic journey to the most remote places of the world. Secrets that human and horse have been sharing for centuries will be revealed - a feast for the senses!

Strolling along the coast of Southern France, where beautiful Camargue mares and their foals linger, Daniel finds a letter that will take him on a journey into a fascinating world. Accompanied by the sound of a "NewStrad" violin, which is being played live, he enters orange-scented gardens, experiences magical fountains, a ballerina dancing on a larger-than-live musical clock, a palace of ice and fiery rides through the desert.

Again more than 50 magnificent horses, internationally acclaimed horsemen and dancers guarantee for a spectacular show that will leave audiences thrilled and romping.

Besides French Camargue a real zebra and a flecked Noriker horse the most admirable horse breeds such as Arabs, Friesians or Lusitanos complete the scene.

For the first time the famous Giona family from Italy will be joining APASSIONATA for the new tour. Alex Giona impresses with a gorgeous performance by his ten white liberty horses, a show act that has been awarded with the 2009 "Silver Clown" pre?sented by Monaco's highness Princess Stephanie at the Monte-Carlo International Circus Festival. Alex's brother Pier will leave audiences stunned by his Hungarian Post standing upright on horseback and steering a group of eight horses.

French stunt and acrobat Sadek together with his impressive Trait Poitevin "Queros" makes for yet another highlight inspiring the crowd with a combination of breathtaking, equine stunts and a passionate liberty dressage.

Furthermore fans of APASSIONATA look forward to Iberic quadrilles by Portuguese team Luis Valen?a, Spanish horsemanship by Miguel Barrionuevo and a "Fire Garrocha" performed by his son Alexandro. Christophe Hasta Luego from France shows a spectacular "Courbette", while daughter Melissa and niece Sabrina treat the audience with a ridden Pas de Deux and long-term APASSIONATA stars Celine and Sylvie Willms from Burgundy let their graceful Friesians "float" across the arena.

As in previous years APASSIONATA is asking children from each tour city to be part of the action and become a little show-star themselves. Due to the storyline this season boys between nine and twelve with some horse experience may apply for this role (must have parental permission).
