Horseman

Characters: 7 males, 8 females with doubling possible

Simple Set

Horseman is a versed and rather broad and comic adaptation of Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Irving's delightful characters find themselves facing questions of young romance, social status, and the supernatural. The narrative body, the old and wise women of Tarrytown, lead us through the tale of Ichabod Crane and his quest for love and security. Steeped in the tone of the original short story, this one act blends the energy of light character ensemble performance with the power of poetry, closing in a purely theatrical crescendo of sight and sound.
