Shadow play which is also known as shadow puppetry is an ancient form of storytelling and entertainment which uses flat articulated figures (shadow puppets) to create cut-out figures which are held between a source of light and a translucent screen or scrim. The cut-out shapes of the puppets sometimes include translucent color or other types of detailing. Various effects can be achieved by moving both the puppets and the light source. A talented puppeteer can make the figures appear to walk, dance, fight, nod and laugh.
Shadow play is popular in various cultures; currently there are more than 20 countries known to have shadow show troupes. Shadow play is an old tradition and it has a long history in Southeast Asia; especially in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Cambodia. It is also considered as an ancient art in other parts of Asia such as in China, India and Nepal. It is also known in the West from Turkey, Greece to France. It is a popular form of entertainment for both children and adults in many countries around the world.
Shadow Play made his racing debut on 21 June 2007 in Charlottetown, PEI. With owner/trainer Dr Ian Moore at the controls, he beat a field of maiden pacers by 4-1/2 lengths.
Shortly thereafter, Dr Moore shipped the colt to Ontario, where he raced for the remainder of his 2-year-old year. He finished 2nd in 2 legs of the Dream Maker Pacing Series, followed by a 4th in the final.
The highlight of his year was a 3rd place finish in an elimination of The Metro Pace at Mohawk. Assigned an outside post, Shadow Play never really got into the race despite pacing his own mile in 1:51-3/5.
He completed his freshman campaign with a mark of 1:57.2 (taken at Mohawk Racetrack) while compiling 3 wins, 3 seconds, and 3 thirds in 13 starts and earning $31,151.
A single movement attracts my attention* A quick turn to see it disappear My struggle to witness what is real Thoughts prey on a realistic view Here is where the daylight fade Darkness leans on a morbid cain Thought's deprived of sterile day A haunting by the shadow play So very still and silent I lay To trace your steps through shadows way The shadow represents a time before I knew A presence felt, cold and by my side I am your captive audience Show yourself, and prove I am not mad Here is where the daylight fade Darkness leans on a morbid cain Thought's deprived of sterile day A haunting by the shadow play So very still and silent I lay To trace your steps through shadows way I can hear you. I know you are there. Your outline against the wall betrays Standing in the dark, lurking in my dreams I can hear your breathing across the room Insignificant within the infinite A road I have travelled many of day Swallowed by the black in nights sky Left to admire the beautiful failure Not much will become of me this night Not any night when the gallows fill Sleep will find the deserts sand This crushing fall steals my breath away Thought's deprived of sterile day A haunting by the shadow play So very still and silent I lay
