By Kole Durnford

Kole Durnford is an award nominated Métis actor and playwright from Stony Plain, Alberta. A horse and his jockey live to laugh and ride together. Bonded like brothers, when news arrives that Horse will be sold unless they win their upcoming race, Jacques presses Horse to go for broke, but at what cost? This shimmering, wistful, funny play about love, burn out, and what it takes to follow your dreams, which marks the professional playwriting premiere of one of Alberta’s most electrifying young writers.
