National Theatre Playscripts: War Horse (PDF)
by Nick Stafford Michael Morpurgo Handspring Puppet Company StaffWorking in partnership with the National Theatre, these new playscripts bring the theatre alive in the classroom.

Based on Michael Morpurgo's novel, Nick Stafford's acclaimed adaptation tells the story of Joey, beloved horse of a young farm boy, Albert. Joey is sold to the cavalry and sent to France to fight in the trenches of the First World War where he faces the unrelenting horrors and dangers of the front line. Desperate to be reunited, Albert secretly enlists and sets off on a treacherous mission to find him and bring him home.
