First comment out of my wife's mouth... "it smells like urine in here." Yep, we're in a horse arena! lol Avoid the overpriced popcorn and pop and bring your own snacks, it allowed. If you forget, there's a small convenience store right across the street. Decent show (The Nutcracker on horseback), decent ticket prices (through Goldstar), and a fun family... More

i love noble horse - it's fun because you get to see some horses and can bring your own food and booze. however, it's def not worth the normal $25 ticket price - they have tons of discount tickets available so snag one of those and go with a sense of humor

Went to the Noble Horse Theatre for the first time with my wife. Neither one us actually like horses, or so we thought, but we wanted to give the Nutcracker a shot with the horses because we read that the original productions of the work were in deed with horses. Wow! It was an awesome experience, and it filled every... More

We went to see their Nutcracker show. It was quite good. The venue is very cool considering it's in the middle of Chicago. The horses are well-trained and kept nicely. The riders did a great job. This was not Cavalia, but was really worth the time and money. Considering we all own horses, everyone in our group found the experience... More

I Went to see this with my husband and mother and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. We saw the Nutcracker and thought it was a great holiday show and a very different way to present and enjoy the Nutcracker. I imagine that especially young girls who love horses (which I was once) will LOVE this show.

Wonderful entertainment and great value. Very family and kid friendly. They will give horseback rides to children after the show is over. We saw the "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" show and are thinking about going back to see the "Nutcracker". The horsemanship is unbelievable. Quick cab ride from the Ogilvie Metra station. The parking lot is very small.

We went to an afternoon showing of the Quadrille and paid only $12 each to see the it due to a coupon. It was decent for $12, but I would not want to pay the whole $25 it normally costs. Most of the performance was not very good, just horses walking and trotting around. The storyline was so strange and... More

I spent 5 days in Chicago last week with 17 family members for a long overdue family reunion. It was a challenge to find activities that pleased all members of a large group ranging in age from 10 to 75. Noble Horse Theatre was the one choice that pleased eveyone. The show was as exciting and entertaining as the horses... More
