War Horse.

Just been to see this extraordinary show in The New London Theatre.
Like nothing I have ever seen before,a first world war story of the life of one particular horse called Joey.An emotional story,all the more extraordinary because of the brilliant engineering of the lifesize puppets ( for want of a better word)....Has to be seen to be believed.

 

I saw a bit about the making of it on telly a little while ago. It looks really impressive. The director was saying he wanted the 'horse' to tell its own story without any narration. From the clips I saw, I reckon he achieved it. I'd love to see the actual show but I haven't seen it listed anywhere near us.

 

Roders, my sister told me about this and I looked it up on google. Then I saw something about it on TV and saying it is very emotional -it looks amazing!
