Description

In a nice park, in a nice city, two nice couples try very, very hard to be nice to each other while the sound of ice cream trucks (wait, no) ambulances (nope!) the Global Financial Crisis screams into town.

She Rode Horses Like the Stock Exchange is an absurdly funny and terrifying ride through downsized, foreclosed America. This is a fresh new play about gender expectations, possession and loneliness, money and ego. Don’t worry about tomorrow. Spend all your money on ice cream. IT’S A BEAUTIFUL DAY.

"Leave it to an Australian playwright to find the humor, humanity and farce in the worst American financial disaster since the Great Depression."

— The Daily Camera 2017

Written by Amelia Roper; Directed by Nell Ranney; Set & Costume Designer Isabel Hudson; Lighting Designer Christopher Page; Composer & Sound Designer Ben Pierpoint; Producer Amy Morcom; Assistant Producer Rebecca Blake;

With Nikki Britton, Tom Mesker, Matilda Ridgway, Dorje Swallow
