STAGE TUBE: National Theatre's Jubilee Salute to the Queen Features Joey from WAR HORSE

Today, June 3, as Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II sailed down the Thames in the Jubilee River Pageant, she received a unique salute from The National Theatre, in association with Handspring UK, with an appearance by Joey from War Horse. Watch a video of the Jubilee salute below!

According to The National Theatre's YouTube post, "Joey was the natural choice to give the National's Jubilee Salute. Ever since The Queen Visited the play War Horse in 2009, Joey has been a firm favourite of hers, and has even paid a private visit to Windsor Castle."

War Horse had its first performance at The National Theatre in 2007 and transferred to London's West End in 2009. It is currently playing in London, New York and Toronto. A North American tour begins this month, an Australian production opens on Dec. 31, and a German production follows in March 2013.
