Some shows are a must-see at least once in your life. War Horse is undoubtedly one of them.
War Horse debuted at London's National Theatre on October 9, 2007.
War Horse has since been produced in 97 cities and 13 countries, including productions on Broadway, in Toronto and Berlin, as well as on tour in the UK and Ireland, North America, the Netherlands, Belgium and China.
After captivating 7 million spectators, War Horse, directed by Marianne Elliott and Tom Morris, finally lands in France with 34 performances scheduled at La Seine Musicale in Boulogne-Billancourt from November 29 to December 29, 2019.
Don't miss the box office opening on Wednesday, June 5, 2019. Pre-registration recommended on warhorse-spectacle.fr.
There's no doubt that the show will win over French audiences. War Horse has won over 25 international awards, including the Tony Award® for " Best Broadway Play" in 2011.
Based on the novel by Michael Morpurgo and adapted by Nick Stafford, War Horse tells the touching story of young Albert and his horse Joey, set against the backdrop of the First World War.
On stage, War Horse marvels at the performances of 34 actors and singers in an incredible historical and musical fresco imbued with emotion and poetry. The show also calls on the talents of puppeteers to bring life to larger-than-life horses, thanks to the work of South Africa's Handspring Puppet Company.
Summary:
When the First World War breaks out, Joey, young Albert's beloved horse, is sold to the Cavalry and sent to France. He is soon caught in enemy fire, and fate takes him on an extraordinary journey, serving both sides before finding himself alone in no-man's-land. Albert, who has stayed at his parents' farm in Devon, can't forget Joey. Although still too young to enlist in the army, he undertakes a perilous mission to find his horse and bring him home.
