Gala of the Royal Horses

Equine performance set for Tuesday in DeKalb

DEKALB, Texas-Several majestic breeds of horses will perform Tuesday in DeKalb with Gala of the Royal Horses.

The show will be 7 p.m. Tuesday at Rancho Del Sol Arena at 1252 FM 992, DeKalb.

For the last 12 years, Riding Master Rene Gasser has been touring both in Australia and abroad with his various productions, which include "Lipizzaner's With the Stars," "Equestra" and "The Horseman from Snowy River."

Gasser is now excited to bring to audiences in North America his production of Gala of the Royal Horses.

Following in the family footsteps of seven generations, Gasser has recreated a show for this tour, only previously seen at the famous riding schools in Vienna and Spain.

The Royal Horses of Europe are some of the most celebrated in history, favored for centuries by royalty and equestrian riders; this performance celebrates the tra-
dition, athleticism and grace of these
revered creatures.

Gala of the Royal Horses will include performances that feature the Lipizzaner stallions, the Spanish Andalusian, Friesian, and the majestic Arabian breeds, as well as the recently added quarter horse.

The event is dedicated to showing off the amazing beauty and maneuvers these horses are capable of, including the stunning maneuvers once used on the battlefield now known as "The Airs Above the Ground," "The Art of Garrocha" as well as "Roman Riding"-where rider Gigi Gasser stands atop a pair of horses with one foot on each horse.

Adult tickets are $40. Seniors 60-plus tickets are $30 each, and children's (4-12) tickets are $15 each.
