Photo Flash: WAR HORSE's Joey Comes to BBC's Proms in the Park

Joey, the equine Star of the National Theatre''s Production of War Horse, based on Michael Morpurgo''s book, was one of the main attractions at Hyde Park at Saturday''s BBC''s Proms in the Park, hosted by Sir Terry Wogan. He made several appearances in the crowd during the evening, amongst the 40,000 strong crowd and on stage during the finale which included rousing choruses of 'Jerusalem'' and the National Anthem.

War Horse is the powerful story of a young boy called Albert and his beloved horse, Joey, who has been requisitioned to fight for the British in World War I. Caught in enemy crossfire, Joey ends up serving on both sides during the war before landing in No Man''s Land, while Albert, not old enough to enlist, embarks on a treacherous mission to find his horse and bring him home. A remarkable tale of courage, loyalty and friendship, War Horse features ground-breaking puppetry work by South Africa''s Handspring Puppet Company, which brings breathing and galloping horses to life on stage.
