Last term was an extremely busy one for the Drama department but we managed to squeeze in an evening trip to the Marlowe in Canterbury with some of our year 10 and 11 GCSE Drama students to see the brilliant ‘War Horse’.

“At the outbreak of World War One, Joey, young Albert’s beloved horse, is sold to the Cavalry and shipped to France. He’s soon caught up in enemy fire, and fate takes him on an extraordinary journey, serving on both sides before finding himself alone in No Man’s Land. Albert, who remained on his parents’ Devon farm, cannot forget Joey. Though still not old enough to enlist, he embarks on a treacherous mission to find Joey and bring him home.”

The play’s creative and spectacular design really made the show one to remember. Many of our students were moved to tears at the end Would Albert and Joey finally be reunited?! 

Thank you to the staff and students who attended!
