Don’t miss the miraculous white stallions

By On Deck Staff

In 1970, Producer Gary Lashinsky created a new family arena attraction, starring The “World Famous” Lipizzaner Stallions.
Many horses and riders were brought from Europe to perform in this unique family oriented arena attraction.
Over the years, more than twenty-five million people throughout North and South America, Great Britain, Europe, Australia and Hawaii have seen this internationally acclaimed spectacle.
In this special Anniversary season of The “World Famous” Lipizzaner Stallions, all new music, choreography and routines have been incorporated in this anniversary edition with a major emphasis on the historical background and foundation of the Lipizzaner breed, from its original breeding and use as a horse of war to a horse of nobility and aristocracy to a living form of equestrian art.
The show emulates the Spanish Riding School of Vienna, Austria, in its presentation of Lipizzans, and maintains a traditional as well as entertaining performance similar in many ways to what you would see at the Spanish Riding School of Vienna.
The horses take center stage in the Wildwoods Convention Center for two brilliant performances, Oct 30-31 as the Lipizzaner Stallions perform at 7:30 p.m., Friday and 2 p.m. Saturday.
The Walt Disney movie, The Miracle of the White Stallions, depicting General George S. Patton saving them at the end of World War II from certain extinction, created an even greater worldwide interest in the Lipizzaner breed. Had it not been for Patton, there would be no Lipizzans today.
Tickets for the event can be purchased at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City and through Ticketmaster. To charge-by-phone, call 800-745-3000.
