War Horse has bowed out at The Lowry in Salford following a record-breaking first run reckoned to be worth £8.9m to the Greater Manchester economy.

The National Theatre production, which is returning to The Lowry for a second, nine-week residency from July 23 to September 20, has sold more than 114,500 tickets for the 70 performances during its 56-day residency—making it the biggest selling show in The Lowry’s history.
