    Qlocal was invited to the opening night of the highly acclaimed War Horse at the Liverpool Empire last night.

    If you have never been to the theatre to see a show then this is the one. War Horse is the most incredible production that it has been my pleasure to see.

    At the end you have to remind yourself that you have just been watching basically giant puppets and not real animals.

    The show was so emotional that grown adults were crying.

    Following eight record breaking years in London’s West End and having played in 11 countries around the world to over 7 million people, the National Theatre’s acclaimed play War Horse is at the Liverpool Empire until 2nd December.

    At the outbreak of World War One, Joey, young Albert’s beloved horse, is sold to the Cavalry and shipped to France. He’s soon caught up in enemy fire, and fate takes him on an extraordinary journey, serving on both sides before finding himself alone in no man’s land. Albert, who remained on his parents’ Devon farm, cannot forget Joey. Though still not old enough to enlist he embarks on a treacherous mission to find him and bring him home.

    Based on the beloved novel by Michael Morpurgo, this powerfully moving and imaginative drama, filled with stirring music and songs, is a show of phenomenal inventiveness. At its heart are astonishing life-sized horses by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company, who bring breathing, galloping, charging horses to thrilling life on stage.

    War Horse is an unforgettable theatrical event which takes audiences on an extraordinary journey from the fields of rural Devon to the trenches of First World War France.
