A Nude Potter Due To Hit Broadway
Once upon a time this little boy inspired us to believe in the goodness of magic. Now, as an adult, actor Daniel Radcliffe is showing us what his wand can really do!
The play, Equus by Peter Shaffer, is the story about a psychiatrist who attempts to treat a young man who has a pathological religious/sexual fascination with horses.
After earning rave reviews in this Tony Award-winning London production, Equus begins previews September 5 for a 22-week run at the Broadhurst Theatre. The play is scheduled to run from September 25 to February 8, 2009. The play will be directed by the talented Thea Sharrock.
The play received a majority of its fame from the scene in which Daniel Radcliffe appears naked on stage. A picture of Daniel bearing all after the jump.
Although this was a very big step in this young actor’s career, it has gotten very mixed reactions among fans. As one fan says, “Equus is one of the worst plays I have ever seen. The writing and plot is muddled in a psychologyly disturbed actions of a boy who pokes out the eyes of a horse with an ice pick. If you’re going to be nude in a play, at least make it a good play.” -Kimberly Ann
On the other hand, this fan writes “People can be so prurient. You know what? Nudity? Yeah, it’s just a naked body. So relax. And acting? Well, it’s just pretend. Make believe.” -Jay
I, personally, think that this is a very brave step for the actor. It might be harmful but I admire his bravery!
