Peter ShafferTracy Notes About This Show
We offer the HORSE HEADS, which are light weight, crafted to look like sculpted metal. Each has a distinctive look, with Nugget being the most unique. We no longer offer the hooves, as they are so potentially dangerous. We do, however, have suggestions for how you can create a safe alternative that will allow the audience their willing suspension of disbelief. Request a Showplot for details.
Plot Synopsis
Dr. Martin Dysart, a psychiatrist, is confronted with Alan Strang, a boy who has blinded six horses in a violent fit of passion. This very passion is as foreign to Dysart as the act itself. To the boy's parents it is a hideous mystery; Alan has always adored horses. To Dysart it is a psychological puzzle that leads both doctor and patient to a complex and disturbingly dramatic confrontation. (Samuel French, Inc)
