Meet Beth-Anne! A horse-loving girl who is chomping at the bit for her happy ending. She just needs the confidence to ask out her crush…
So Beth-Anne turns herself into a horse.
…nothing is more beautiful than a horse, of course.
Beth-Anne is a hilarious, fast-paced solo comedy about a journey of self-acceptance. Beth-Anne explores (in her own extreme fashion) the desire to be something other than what we are.
Will Beth-Anne transform from an awkward girl into a world class show pony – yay or neigh? Come horse around with her to find out.
Please note that Beth-Anne eats many food products throughout the show (carrots, apples, pasta noodles, water) and spits them onto the stage floor. It is gross.
This show contains audience participation. However, everything is low-risk! Audience members are asked to hold an object for Beth-Anne that she later retrieves. If audience members are comfortable they are invited to get out of their seat, walk onstage, and give Beth-Anne these objects.
Institutional, there is a scene in a hospital where someone dies (it is comedic and the tone is very light). Beth-Anne is also chased by animal control and police sirens are used.
