The winner of more than 25 international awards, including the Tony Award for Best Play on Broadway, this hugely popular and imaginative stage version of Michael Morpurgo‘s novel features ground-breaking puppetry work by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company.

Originally broadcast live from the New London Theatre in the West End back in 2014, it was punted back on screen for the first time in six years to mark Remembrance Day 2020 with plenty of further screenings to follow.
