In-keeping with their series of "Extraordinary EBay" packages, Broadway Cares / Equity Fights AIDS (BC/EFA) is proud to announce an online auction item guaranteed to please both horse lovers and Harry Potter fans alike.

Bidders will be champing at the bit with this exciting new package from the smash-hit Broadway revival of Peter Shaffer's 1975 Tony Award®-winning play, EQUUS!

The winning bidder and a guest will receive the following:

* A pair of VIP seats to a performance EQUUS on Broadway at the Broadhurst Theatre.
* A guided backstage tour and opportunity to have their picture taken with the show's stars, Daniel Radcliffe and Tony Award®-winner (History Boys) Richard Griffiths.
* A genuine costume piece - the blue jeans worn by Radcliffe in the show - recently auctioned off from the stage for $1,000!
* A Playbill autographed by the entire EQUUS Broadway company.
* And finally... a private, VIP tour of The Horse, currently on exhibit at New York's American Museum of Natural History. "This evocative, trailblazing exhibition explores the evolution of this magnificent animal and the enduring bond that shaped human history. Spectacular fossils and cultural objects, videos, interactive computer stations, touchable casts, and more."

Please note: 1. Equus tickets and package elements are subject to a mutually agreed-upon performance date between company management and auction winner; the current Broadway revival of Equus is scheduled to close on Feb. 8th, 2009. 2. Private tour at the AMNH is also subject to availability per tour guide schedule; the exhibit will close on Jan. 4th, 2009.
