Watched it yesterday and Oh My God.

It was utterly mind blowing....they weren't horse puppets, they were horses. The guys controlling the horses just sort of disappeared and what was left was this very real horse, with very real emotions.

I've seen a lot of plays, but War Horse blew them ALL away, as well as every film i've ever seen.

As a riding instructor and life-long horse owner I was amazed - blown away - the movements are absolutely bang on! I soon forgot about the extra legs! Magical.

uh, expensive, less control, and its not fair on the horses expecting them to do that many shows... also where do you put them? Cant exactly have stables behind the stage.

eg: galloping scene. Probably will get 2 strides of gallop in there. Noise and lights may scare the horses. Too hot and tireing.

Snob!!

Everything looks beautiful... til you get to the hind leg. There's no femur, fibula, tibia articulation! Someone needs to work on their anatomy.
