You loved Fast Cars… now meet its completely unhinged cousin: Murder Horse.

A winning racehorse.
A desperate heir.
And a body count that won’t stop rising.

Made right here in the Central West. It’s Sweeney Todd meets Succession in this dark, campy musical romp, that rips the lid off our national obsession with gambling.

Featuring familiar faces from the popular musicals FAST CARS and Schapelle Schapelle, this gothic-comedy-horror musical is written by Tim Hansen (Carcoar), Jack Dodds (Cumnock), and Gareth Thomson, and directed by Kate Smith (Bathurst).

Strong language warning.
