Ended the day seeing War Horse. I will say this about the show: go see it. For the puppetry, which is amazing. The horses are incredibly life-like and just beautiful, the music is beautiful, and a lot of the scenery and settings are really well done.
The acting for most of the people parts left quite a bit to be desired--the actors were not up to the task of playing against the puppets. Actually, compared to most of the actors in most of the productions I've seen, they fell below the high standard set by most of the actors I've seen in plays mentioned on this blog (with the exception of the production of All's Well That Ends Well).
But for the touching story and the spectacle of the horses, War Horse is well worth watching.
