Theatre Review Based on the beloved novel by Michael Morpurgo, this
WAR HORSE, powerfully moving and imaginative drama, filled with
stirring music and songs, is a show of phenomenal
inventiveness. At its heart are astonishing life-sized
horses by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company,
who bring breathing, galloping, charging horses to
thrilling life on stage.

“Michael Morpurgo has written over one hundred War Horse is an unforgettable theatrical event which

Jessica Robinson
At the outbreak of World War One, Joey, young
Albert’s beloved horse, is sold to the Cavalry and War Horse at the Birmingham Hippodrome
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
him and bring him home.

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU AT BLUSH

Says BLUSH hair, nails and beauty owner, Caroline Hinton

It’s time... time to focus on a new year and a new you. New Year’s
resolutions are well under way but what have you decided for
yourself?! Whether it’s a new hair colour, complete restyle or new
set of gel nails it’s time to treat yourself.
Now we’re the other side of the shortest winter’s day it’s time to
think about brightening up for spring. Now is a good time to
decide your hair goals and if one of those is lighter hair for summer,
start now. Taking your locks lighter isn’t always a quick process, in
fact it can take several months to gently lift up your colour to a
summer shade. We are hot on treatments too, why not ask for a
conditioning treatment with your hair cut or colour.
Spring favourites are emerging from the gel nail palette of colours
and strong pinks and pastel purples become really popular at this
time of year. With literally hundreds of gel polishes and glitters to
choose from there’s a colour for everyone at Blush.

bleeding as can cause a build up of sludge in
