Highly Acclaimed Cavalia Experience Held Over in Atlanta Until January 22, 2012
What has 392 legs and has captured the hearts and imaginations of Atlanta since its debut on December 7, 2011? The answer is Cavalia’s Odysseo – an equestrian odyssey centered around the age-old relationship between humans and horses. Presented under the world’s largest touring big top in the heart of Midtown Atlanta at 8th and Spring Streets, this unique theatre encompasses an immense 27,000-square-foot stage surrounded by panoramic digital projections that immerse the audience in some of nature’s most dramatic landscapes.
Opened to an overwhelming collective response from audiences and rave reviews from Atlanta theatre critics, Odysseo has been held over until January 15, 2012. If you haven’t had an opportunity to experience this one-of-a-kind theatrical performance for yourself, here’s your chance before it rides off into the sunset to its next North American destination in Miami, Florida.
The grand scale of Odysseo fills viewers with a sense of amazement as Cavalia pays tribute to these magnificent animals and their rapport with mankind. The audience is completely submerged in this unique theatrical journey filled with beautiful music, fast-paced intricate stunts gallop, and lyrical dreamlike acrobatic scenes. The intimate setting and un-obstructed views from every seat make it easy to escape and forget the hustle-bustle of everyday life in one of the South’s most face-paced cities – even if for only a moment. Surrounded, the elaborate setting allows for a cast of 71 majestic horses and 54 riders, musicians and gravity-defying acrobats to explore, create and play on the expansive set.
