"The story features different epic characters including the Unicorn, Pegasus, the ancient Greek beauty Helen (the most beautiful woman of Greece and the indirect cause of the Trojan War) and the heroic figure Achilles," Liu said.

"Therefore, it's not only a performance of horses, nor a performance of humans, but a combination of both."

In addition, high technologies, including eight Imax projectors, will be used to enhance the performance effects.

The Trojan War recounts the legendary 10-year conflict between Greece and Troy over a beautiful woman named Helen. The war has become one of the most important events in Greek mythology and has been narrated through many works of Greek literature.
