MESMERISING AND MOVING
PLEASE go and see this show, it is wonderful. The hoses are just so incredibly lifelike and the handlers manage to give each one a character of their own. It has a poignant story line that will bring a lump to the throat of even the most hardened person. It is a triumph for all concerned. Thank you.

WAR HORSE
The most beautiful and fantastic craftmanship of the actors, for me a horse lover, the puppets turned into real horses after about 15 minutes,I shared my pack of tissues with the charming lady next to me at the tearful end. I am hoping to go back this year to take my friend. Can't put into words how fantastic. I hope it runs for ever x

FANTASTIC - BLOWN AWAY!
Me and my sister took my daughter (aged 12) to see this stage show after we all read War Horse. The show was fantastic and we forgot the horses were puppets within the first 2/3 minutes. Couldn't recommend it enough. Now waiting for the film!

TAKE TISSUES AND DON'T READ THE BOOK FIRST!
this play takes you on an amazing journey and, if you allow them to, the horses will enter your heart. The puppetry is so clever and effortless that you forget they do not have souls and believe their every move, in all the pain and all the characteristics. my only advice would be to save reading the book until after you've seen the play; let the screenplay take you on the journey rather than try to follow the book plot as they differ slightly.

MUST SEE!
Just recently seen this show, it was the best that money could buy. You simply have to see it, we were in the front row which we thought might be to close, let me assure you, it was not. It will give a sense that you are there. Brilliant show!!!!!
