Subject: War Horse to close in West End in 2016
Written By: Philip Eno on 09/18/15 at 5:00 am
The West End production of War Horse, a galloping success for the National Theatre, is to close in 2016 after a seven-year run.
The show, based on Michael Morpurgo's novel, tells the story of Joey, a horse who serves in World War I.
Murpurgo said it was "a show like no other, with puppets at its heart" and that it had "moved millions in London and all over the world".
The last performance at the New London Theatre is scheduled for 12 March.
War Horse, which also won five Tony Awards on Broadway and has been seen in 10 countries, is the most successful play in the National Theatre's history. It was also adapted into an Oscar-nominated film by Steven Spielberg.
When it closes, the London production will have played over 3,000 performances and been seen by over 2.7 million people. A UK tour will begin in autumn 2017.
