POTTERS BAR U3A THEATRE GROUP NEW VICTORIA THEATRE 8 th AUGUST 2018 @ 2.30 PM

WAR HORSE By MICHAEL MORPURGO

War Horse is an unforgettable theatrical event which takes audiences on an extraordinary journey from the rural fields of Devon to the trenches of 1st World War France. Set against the backdrop of the 1st W.W. it is the most successful play in the National Theatre’s history. At the outbreak of WW1 Joey, young Albert’s beloved horse is sold to the cavalry and shipped to France. He is soon caught up in the 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 parent’s Devon farm, cannot forget Joey. Though still not old enough to enlist Albert embarks on a treacherous mission to find him and bring him home. This is powerfully moving and imaginative filled with stirring music and songs a show of phenomenal inventiveness. At its heart are astonishing life size horses by the South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company. Woking, as we know has plenty to make our visit interesting whatever you fancy doing, retail therapy or museums, the Light Box always has new exhibits with a nice cafe for tea and cake. A walk along the river-side is delightful. Lunch in the church is always a good bet. Or in one of the many eating places in the shopping malls.
