7:00 PMThis evening will feature a screening of the National Theatre Live Masterpiece, captured live from the West End in 2014.
The critically acclaimed and international smash-hit play War Horse arrives for its debut screening at The Wallis.
At the outbreak of World War One, Albert’s beloved horse, Joey, is sold to the Cavalry and shipped to France. Though still not old enough to enlist he embarks on a treacherous mission to find him and bring him home.
Now seen by more than 8 million people around the world, this powerfully moving and imaginative drama is a show of phenomenal inventiveness. At its heart are astonishing life-size puppets by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company, who bring breathing, galloping, charging horses to thrilling life on stage.
The National Theatre is pleased to thank Gregory Annenberg Weingarten Presenting Sponsor of NT Live at The Wallis.
In partnership with American Associates of the National Theatre
