Publisher's blurb:
Amina, Cecilie, and Olivia go to the same public school and are interested in performing dressage competitions on hobby horses. During the game they’ll develop a close friendship through their interest. All three of them are struggling with personal dilemmas connected to the hobby they love but fear their surroundings response to. The game takes place in a social housing block area north of Copenhagen, and follows the girls through a dark winter towards a beginning spring and a big competition they are training for.
The game will be played semi-live, and hobby horses will be provided for the players. The hobby horses Thunder, Silja and Eyvindur have their own personality and temperament, which the girls have made up. The horses can both enforce their owner’s personality traits or try to pull her in a whole other direction. The players will be taught how to animate the hobby horses and use them to affect the narrative in the introductory workshop.
Hobby Horse is a feel-good drama about the courage and vulnerability, which is a part of practicing a hobby, your surroundings might find difficult to understand.
