About this event
Based on the beloved novel by Michael Morpurgo | Adapted by Nick Stafford In association with the award-winning Handspring Puppet Company.
The National Theatre’s acclaimed production returns in an all-new tour. WAR HORSE is an unforgettable theatrical experience which takes audiences on an extraordinary journey from the fields of rural Devon to the trenches of First World War France. Based on the beloved novel by Michael Morpurgo, this powerfully moving and imaginative drama, filled with stirring music and songs, is a show of phenomenal inventiveness. At its heart are astonishing life-sized horses by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company, who bring breathing, galloping, charging horses to thrilling life on stage.
