Equus at Long Beach Playhouse

Dr. Martin Dysart, a psychiatrist,
is confronted with Alan Strang, a
boy who has blinded six horses in
a violent fit of passion. This very
passion is as foreign to Dysart as
the act itself. To the boy’s parents
it is a hideous mystery; Alan has
always adored horses. To Dysart
it is a psychological puzzle that
leads both doctor and patient
to a complex and disturbingly
dramatic confrontation. This
international success reached
new acclaim in London and on
Broadway when revived in 2008.
Bases on true events.
