The National Theatre’s highly acclaimed production of War Horse comes to Brighton Centre. This highly emotional, technically ground-breaking and visually stunning performance, the adult adaptation of a children’s book, illustrates the horrors of war in bold imagery and features the puppetry of South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company who recreate equine mannerisms down to the smallest and most realistic detail.
