(Co-written with Jeremy Park) James and Jeremy have shown up to tell the story of Alexander the Great's horse using the time-honored tradition of Two-Person Horse Costume (or TPHC for those in the industry). After a technical issue gets in their way the two must figure out how to finish the show with a two-assed horse.

"This could very well be the most interesting and appropriate use of the classic two-man horse costume yet put to stage. There are also communists. It’s witty, self-aware, and every performer has near perfect comedic timing. This show has been a highlight of the fringe thus far."
- Lucas Provencher, Vue Weekly (Edmonton)
“Extremely clever”
– Acclaimed playwright Sharon Pollock, adjudicator, Calgary Region One-Act Play Festival 2016
"A true joy to watch"
- Avianna Hudym, Regina Fringe reviewer

“James Odin Wade entwines the story of Alexander the Great's famous horse with the vaudeville tradition of the two-man horse costume,,,but they're both the buts! All wafted on mounds of lovely and funny word play. Bravo Bucephalus!”
“Very funny! Lots of physical humor that I’m sure is just hysterical on stage and lots of great lines like this gem, “Marxism is for jerks, Ryan.” And it even has a touching theme of being true to yourself and art.”
