"Written and performed by Christopher Piehler
Directed by Thomas James O'Leary
Hollywood Fringe Festival
Theatre Asylum, Los Angeles, California
June 2015
"Piehler’s understated, self-deprecating humor and comedically ungainly physical mannerisms play well.... What Piehler does very well, under director Thomas James O'Leary's well-paced guidance, is pull the audience into the world of competitive riding, from the point of view of a child.... The audience could have easily spent another 10 or 15 minutes in Piehler’s company." —Julio Martinez from Bitter Lemons

"Wonderfully directed by Thomas James O’Leary (who played the Phantom for three years on Broadway), Piehler takes his audience back to their childhood fears and their childhood loves, cleverly weaving the stories together into a manifesto on growing up. Piehler kept the audience in the palm of his hand as he taught them about the sport and how it changed his life, preparing him for the success he has become." --Bob Leggett of AXS.com
