The play is just beautiful, the horses are so cleverly made.

its amazing at the theatre but remember your tissues!!! i would love to go see it again, i think i could watch it on rerun for days!

 

[Tormenta]

There was a documentary on the History channel (I think!) a few nights ago about War horse, featuring Michael Morpurgo and also witness accounts and footage of horses in World War one and two. It was good, if it is on again I recommend a watch to anyone who can.

Have read the book too

Have read the book, really ought to read it again....

 

[smac]

Not read book, but seen in London. AMAZING !!! Would go again, but waterproof mascara, box of tissues and compact for when lights go back on!! My "tough nothing makes me cry" friend was sobing throughout

Not much of a reader, but I think thins was the first book I ever finished. Read it in secondary school first, and still reading it all the time. A definate read for all horse lovers!!!

Went to see it a couple of weeks ago, even made OH cry! It was brilliant, every so often in a quiet bit you could hear the whole audience crying! They did put the lights up a bit quick at the end though, I could have done with a couple of minutes to dry out! Well worth the money!

 

[minkymoo]

I saw it at the theatre with my OH and thought it the most wonderful play I've ever seen.

Good news though, Steven Spielburg is making it into a film! Yay!

 

[Steeleydan]

Iam not much of a book reader only magazines! But I was hooked on that book, couldnt put it down, made me cry too, but then again I cried reading Black Beauty.

 

[bumblelion]

I used to love the book when I was younger, read it every week! Really want to go and see the show, just scared I'll cry throughout!

 

[jumpingginger]

I saw it at the theatre and cried all the way through! It's absolutely amazing! And I saw Joey at Your Horse live, cried there too!

 

[ReggiePerrin]

I've seen it at the theatre and ditto the tissues. I didn't even make it across the road before I started welling up, there's an amazing poster on the outside of the theatre where the soldier is cradling the horses head in his lap!! Sob, sob!

 

[Chunkie]

My friend saw this in London a couple of weeks ago and thought it was amazing. She cried.

I have never read the book or seen the show but I read an overview of what happens and now I daren't read it! I think certain bits would break my heart.
