Race Horse Company present Chevalier – Hobbyhorse Circus

Chevalier – Hobbyhorse Circus is an irresistibly charming homage to the magnificent horses of circus and the silent movie era. Drawing inspiration from the history of traditional horse circuses, Kalle Lehto’s ringmaster performs acrobatics, juggling and balancing with an amazing cast of hobby horses.

As the horses take center stage on the small manege, part of the ringmaster’s story is told in short silent movies on a small cinema screen. Kalle’s playful work with the hobby horses, natural comedic sense and the fluid movement of a breakdancer brings the magic of circus alive.

bOing! is a relaxed festival – audiences are welcome to leave and re-enter performances at any time. This performance is non-verbal and accessible to all. The soundtrack does not feature music with lyrics. Horses are not allergenic and they don’t bite!

We are really pleased to offer a Touch Tour for this show, to allow those with access requirements an opportunity to touch parts of the set, costumes or props involved in the show. Please sign up to the Touch Tour by emailing boxoffice@kent.ac.uk
