Adam Barlow & Jason Furnival / War Horse at the National Theatre



We’re incredibly proud that ADAM BARLOW and JASON FURNIVAL will be returning WAR HORSE  to the National Theatre where it returns home from tonight until the 5th of January.

Eleven years after its NT debut, and having played in eleven countries to over seven million people, War Horse returns to the National Theatre to mark the centenary of Armistice Day.

This much loved story begins at the outbreak of World War One, Albert’s beloved horse, Joey, is sold to the cavalry and shipped to France. Though not yet old enough to enlist, Albert joins the army, and embarks on a treacherous mission to find his horse and bring him home.

Based on the novel by Michael Morpurgo, this powerfully moving and imaginative drama is a show of phenomenal inventiveness. At its heart are astonishing life-sized horses, created by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company.
