Warhorse Family Day

28 Apr 2016
WARHORSE FAMILY DAY Tianjin Grand Theatre Sunday 15th May
 
We would like to invite parents and pupils of Wellington to attend the Afternoon Matinee performance of Warhorse at Tianjin Grand Theatre on Sunday 15th May, beginning at 2pm.

SYNOPSIS

"At the outbreak of World War One, Joey, young Albert’s beloved horse, is sold to the Cavalry and shipped to France. He’s soon caught up in enemy fire, and fate takes him on an extraordinary journey, serving on both sides before finding himself alone in no man’s land. Albert, who remained on his parents’ Devon farm, cannot forget Joey. Though still not old enough to enlist he embarks on a treacherous mission to find him and bring him home. "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. War Horse is an unforgettable theatrical event which takes audiences on an extraordinary journey from the fields of rural Devon to the trenches of First World War France." Synopsis courtesy of the National Theatre of Great Britain We very much look forward to sharing this wonderful performance with the entire community - the first collaboration between the Great Britain National Theatre and the National Theatre of China.
