 In the South African context, [[Equestrian Gymnastics]], first occurs, both as a descriptor for a set of [[Performance|performances]] and as the name of a French [[Circus|circus]] troupe which visited Cape Town in late 1850 (October-December) under the auspices of the governor Sir Harry Smith, and featured [[Hippodrama|Hippodramas]] as part of its repertoire (i.e. shows which featured pantomime-performances and dramatised equestrian displays . In advertisements the presentations were referred to as "[[Equestrian Gymnastics]]". [[Temple Hauptfleisch|Hauptfleisch]] (1997, p. 28)[http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/85401]  has pointed out that that some of these performances are clearly related to equestrian style models familiar at the time in England and the United States (e.g. the "military re-enactment" or the "Wild West Show").
