The Fable begins in the pasture: A dancer with Skippy, a miniature Donkey. The duo is greeted by seven dancers and a joyous Folk Dance ensues. The orchestrated Folk Dance is intermittently joined by curious equine participants.
Donkeys are hardy animals, capable of surviving in harsh environments and carrying heavy loads over long distances. They are invaluable working animals in many parts of the world. Humans have a lot to learn from donkeys, whose patience, resilience and measured persistence are fundamental to their survival.
From the pasture, the choreography progresses into an enclosed round pen where the heartbeat of The Fable unfolds:
The dancers venture into a courageous departures from traditional equine performance. Instead of the human as dominant, the horses are actively shaping the dancers' movement.​
The Equus Projects dancers are New York City-based professional dancers who are also trained in natural horsemanship ground skills.
The company creates the choreography with horses, then fine-tunes the choreography and theatrical trajectory in the studio.
In The Fable, the performers are continuously merging horsemanship savvy with choreographic decision-making. In The Fable, the dancers are constantly shifting from set choreographic interludes into improvised choreographic material.
The Equus Projects dancers are New York City-based professional dancers who are also trained in natural horsemanship ground skills. The dancers have been doing their horesemanship training at Majoda Stables since 2018.
