The Story: Three Men on a Horse takes place in the 1930s, a decade of lingering economic depression, prohibition, and speakeasy bars with gambling and gang-related crime. One character in the play, a very law-abiding citizen, possesses a strange ability to pick winning horses at the racetrack and that uncanny skill attracts three men and a girl whose profession is betting on horses.
The play begins in a small suburban house in Ozone Heights, New Jersey, the home of a young couple named Erwin (Sean Powell) and Audrey Trowbridge (Sara Copeland). Erwin works in an office with a very demanding boss, Mr. Carver (David Heath). Erwin writes verses for greeting cards, and one morning he's feeling the pressure of having to come up with 67 new Mother's Day poems by the next day. As if this weren't enough, Audrey finds a notebook in which Erwin has written some cryptic names and numbers, and she leaps to the conclusion that he is seeing other women. But these names do not belong to girls, he explains, they belong to horses!The ensemble also includes: Sean Doran, Darren McCarthy, Chip Sherman, Randy McLeod, and Anneke Wisner.
