NT Live in HD Encore: WAR HORSE
Thursday, October 13, 2016
The National Theatre’s Original Stage Production of
WAR HORSE
The National Theatre’s internationally acclaimed production of War Horse returns for an encore HD screening. Since its first performance at the National Theatre in 2007, War Horse has become an international smash hit, capturing the imagination of four million people around the world.
Based on Michael Morpurgo’s novel and adapted for the stage by Nick Stafford, War Horse takes audiences on an extraordinary journey from the fields of rural Devon to the trenches of First World War France. Filled with stirring music and songs, this powerfully moving and imaginative drama is a show of phenomenal inventiveness. At its heart are astonishing life-size puppets by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company, who bring breathing, galloping, charging horses to thrilling life on stage.
Genius isn’t too strong a word to describe this astonishing production- Daily Telegraph
