Daniel Radcliffe: Screen to Broadway Stage
From the boy wizard in the "Harry Potter" films and Rudyard Kipling's ill-fated son in the TV drama "My Boy Jack," to the disturbed teenager in the London and Broadway revivals of Peter Schaffer's play "Equus," Daniel Radcliffe is an actor of diverse talents. Hear him discuss his Broadway debut in the drama, which starts previews on September 5, and also how he's been able to move from screen to stage so seamlessly. Interviewed by Julie Bosman, New York Times culture reporter.

The event is sold out. 

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.

Directed by Thea Sharrock, EQUUS is produced on Broadway by The Shubert Organization and Elizabeth Ireland McCann, Roger Berlind, John Gore, Hirschfeld Productions, Bill Kenwright, Emily Fisher Landau, Arielle Tepper Madover, Peter May, Chase Mishkin and Spring Sirkin.
