From practice runs behind a golf buggy…
…to being dragged at speed across our 7.5 acre stage by a galloping horse! 🐎

Meet Rebecca and Stephanie, the fearless stuntwomen behind Kynren’s famous Dragged Roman scene. Performed every Saturday night by two incredible volunteers with their equally heroic horses, it is one of the most daring moments in our blockbuster show.
