The Horse's Mouth
Cast of three woman and a male dancer to perform the horse Set in Germany today. Running time approximately 90 minutes with no interval.
This unique play fuses together dance and dramatic scenes for three female actors and a male dancer to play the elite equine athlete Storm.
Gale Skinner is at the peak of her equestrian career. Against all odds, this orphan, not only survived a string of foster homes, she has managed to conquer one of the snootiest sports in the world: Three Day Eventing which is the equine version of the triathlon requiring skills in dressage, cross-country and show jumping.
Skinner, now residing in Germany to perform the European Circuit, has just been selected to represent Australia in the Olympic Games.
When her horse throws her off in a major competition, Gale is accused of being an animal abuser, the internet goes wild, and she is forced to work with equine behaviorist Rinske (who she vehemently hates) and her horse Storm (who she loves) in order to stop the media frenzy and be able to compete again with Storm. It is a moving story of how fulfilling a dream may be about waking up.
