Description: "The latest in the series 'The National Theatre at Work' follows the production of War Horse from early concept workshops, through the design and development of the magnificent life-size horse puppets, research of the play's languages and wartime setting, the exploratory process of making the adaptation, rehearsals with the ensemble, and onto the Olivier stage. Mervyn Millar's unique perspective as a member of the creative team and a puppeteer gives an insight into the way this stage version of Michael Morpurgo's novel takes audiences on a journey through history."--BOOK JACKET.
