EQUUS is currently in preview performances at the Broadhurst Theatre (235 W 44th Street). The show will open on September 25. EQUUS will play a strictly limited engagement through February 8, 2009.
EQUUS reunites the two stars of the wildly successful "Harry Potter" films:
Daniel Radcliffe, who portrays the brilliant young wizard, Harry Potter, and
Richard Griffiths, who appears as Harry's Uncle Vernon Dursley. Mr. Griffiths was last seen on Broadway in 2006 when he won the Tony Award for Best Actor for "The History Boys."
Mr. Griffiths and Mr. Radcliffe starred together in EQUUS during its acclaimed engagement in London's West End last year.
Kate Mulgrew is also featured in the cast of EQUUS on Broadway. In EQUUS, psychiatrist Martin Dysart investigates the blinding of six horses, a savage act committed by a mild-mannered stable boy, Alan Strang, whose home life is filled with bigotry and religious fervor. As Dysart reveals the mysteries behind the boy's demons, he realizes he is confronting his own.
