Ride a Cock Horse is an original 1948 Australian radio play by Sumner Locke Elliott. It aired as an episode of Lux Radio Theatre and was one of the last plays Elliott wrote in Australia before leaving for the USA.[1][2]

The cast included Lloyd Berrell and Thelma Scott.

Premise

According to one account "the plot concerns a young Hollywood actress. Kit Sheldon, who, on returning to New York from Hollywood, learns that her husband has been displaying more than unusual interest in an attractive archaeologist, turns her attention to a young man who comes to fix the kitchen sink. "[3]

Reception

Ariel from The Age said he listened to the play "largely for patriotic reasons. The dramatist is an Australian playwright and actor, and I felt he should have a sympathetic hearing. However, it was not long beforesome of my sympathy oozed away. The play had an American setting. The dialogue was the smart American type cleverly enough done.... nothing In it seemed to matter much."[4]

The Brisbane Mail said "Thelma Scott, last-minute stand in, showed us she can play 'light'."[5]
