TEXT I

Daniel Radcliffe

(By John Rigg)

Harry Potter may lose his glasses, his clothes and innocence in a revival of Peter Shaffer’s 1973 play Equus, but he has received enthusiastic reviews for his performance as a disturbed teenager. The play is Daniel Radcliffe’s debut on the London stage, at the Gielgud Theatre.

Daniel Radcliffe has earned millions of pounds from his appearance as Harry Potter, and has just signed contracts to appear in the final two films of the series. This makes his decision to star in Equus, with no stage training, incredibly brave. The tortured role of Alan Strang, a stable boy who blinds six horses with a metal spike, includes a scene in which he appears naked. The play is a detective story in which psychiatrist Martin Dysart, played by Richard Griffiths, explores the boy’s relationship with his girlfriend, authoritarian father and devout mother, and tries to understand the reasons behind the attacks. Daniel succeeds brilliantly in the part and breaks the magical spell cast upon him by Harry Potter.
