Olympics Opening To Include 70 Sheep
Oscar winning director Danny Boyle plans to transform the opening ceremony of the London Olympics 2012 into a surreal vista of a “green and pleasant land” at the newly-built host stadium in Eastern London. Boyle, wearing his hat as London 2012 Olympic Games opening ceremony artistic director, will orchestrate a cast of thousands of people and live animals, including 12 horses, 10 chickens, nine geese and 70 sheep. Do you think the Chinese who organized the 2008 high-tech opening in Beijing feel that their work will be surpassed? Me, neither.
