“I’ll let you in on a secret: Vegas isn’t the only place you can lose it all, it can happen right here. Paddy Power, Ladbrokes, Pick your poison… All tied to that one vice: Gambling”.
The 3.30 at Cheltenham is a fast-paced thrill ride into the life and gambling addiction of Andy Williams. Andy faces his past in an electric re-telling of when chasing the impossible win put much more at stake than just the horses. When the fun stops, can Andy stop?
Directed by Paul Meade, performed by Ken Hudson and Darragh Conway and proudly sponsored by the Gambling Awareness Trust, The 3.30 at Cheltenham promises laughs, relentless truth, and insights into the quiet, dark side of the gambling industry.
