The power of stories transcends age and although Michael Morpurgo’s principal readership is young, this classic tale tugs at the heart of everyone who hears it.
War Horse is Stephen Spielberg’s major film of 2011 and was a stunning National Theatre stage production. It tells the story of a horse that witnessed the carnage of the First World War – and it tells it through the eyes of the horse. As the guns fall silent over the shattered landscape, the horse survives – to tell what he saw. Immensely powerful, a classic tale created by one of the world’s greatest storytellers, War Horse comes alive at Lennoxlove, with the help of its author and readings given by actors.
