Opera Pampa, is a spectacle that features more than 20 authentic gauchos, 26 horses and a cast of more than 30 dancers. For outsiders, the show is a dose of Argentine History 101 and for Argentines it's a refresher course. The eight-act play begins with the Calchaqui people in the Andes and continues to Spanish colonization, independence, and civil wars _ highlighting the role of horses. (AP Photo/Natacha Pisarenko)
