Gift Horse Theatre present War & Peace as an open-air theatre event. Our dynamic cast of eight will tackle this nineteenth-century epic, guiding you through a hundred characters, two wars, and thirteen hundred pages - all in the space of two and a half hours. This is an accessible adaptation that is playful and modern in spirit, featuring live music and dance. Balls, gunfights, marriages, death, and vodka: we will show you the best - and worst - parts of Tolstoy’s story.

“One of the best ways to be introduced to a literary classic […] An upcoming theatre company filled with talented” - Babylon Radio “This play then was nothing short of excellent. It was poignant, witty, and powerful and somehow managed to relate its ageing dialogue to twentieth-first century youths” - University Times
