In Tune

The much-loved production of War Horse returns to the National Theatre this summer ahead of its 20th anniversary in 2027. This will also be the first production of War Horse to be staged since the death of composer Adrian Sutton last year. John Tams, who worked closely with Adrian on the music, performs live on In Tune with singer and accordion player Sally Swanson. They are also joined by the co-director of War Horse, Tom Morris, to reflect on Adrian Sutton's life and music. Katie also chats to Composer Oli Julian about his score for Amandaland ahead of the 2nd series.
