interspecies performance

[Christine Boyko-Head]

There is a cirque type show in Niagara Falls all based on horses. Never saw
it, but only heard about it and saw the ads.

What about Fall fairs? Horse jumping, dressage, or the showing for
evaluation of good behaviour/breeding/comportment of other animals? I've
also seen SuperDogs http://www.superdogs.com/ which is pretty fun. The dogs
do obstacle courses, play games (like musical chairs), run races against
people. (You just missed them in Stratford last Friday -- website has other
upcoming dates) Just some thoughts.

No. But last spring, I saw a small terrier-type dog do a star-turn as  
Toto in the Citadel production of Wizard of Oz. Needless to say,  
because of the demands of the role, Toto was double-cast for the run.  
Any productions of Wizard of Oz going up in your area in the next  
month or so?
