WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
In Three Men on a Horse, hen-pecked greeting-card writer, Erwin Trowbridge, has an uncanny ability for predicting the winners in horse races.

This dizzy and delightful Depression era comedy, by one of the American theatre's most accomplished showmen, will bring a much needed lift to your Recession-wearied spirits.
