Three Men on a Horse (staged reading) @ Valley Center Stage (North Bend)

Three shady gamblers who have no visible means of support spend their time in a bar reading the daily racing form and figuring which horse to bet that day. They come across information about a rather meek, married man who is a greeting card verse writer and whose hobby is reading the sports page and picking horse race winners. He is very, very good at picking winners. He, however, does not gamble and has never placed a bet. The three men capture the greeting card poet and get him drunk and persuade him to pick winners for them. His wife and father-in-law try to rescue him and bring him home.

Written by John Cecil Holm and George Abbott. Directed by Bob Callaghan.

A staged reading means there is not a full set, but lights, sound and some costuming will be incorporated. Actors dramatically read from scripts to present the full story.
