War Horse was a play in a cozy theater. The play was emotionally striking for such a simple set, including projection and few props. The story was a boy and his 'orse. The boy joins the army to find the horse that was donated to the British cause to find the horse. With that being said, the story line, was slightly, over dramatic. The horse props were extremely well rendered, and Tine described them as "realized line drawings", which I cannot describe better if i tried. They were, i suppose impressionistic line drawings to describe them just a bit further, in that the motion of the horse was jerky, and as fluid as they could be, from a steel wood and mesh frame that probably weighted more than I do. I became extremely emotionally involved with the horse, despite what I'm calling an over dramatic subject matter; and I think that was due to the acting skills of those preforming and choreographing the horse.
