Dates confirmed for Equus

London: Dates have been confirmed for the upcoming West End production of Equus through the show's website. Peter Shaffer's play, directed by Thea Sharrock, will begin previews at the Gielgud Theatre on February 16, 2007 and officially open on the 27th.
As previously announced, Richard Griffiths and Daniel Radcliffe are set to headline the production.
The creative team includes design by John Napier, lighting design by David Hersey, and sound design by Gregory Clarke.
In Equus, Alan Strang seems a normal, obedient 17-year old with a passion for horses. Then one night he blinds six horses with a hoof pick. What drove him to it? His life seems routine, his family loving, his pursuits harmless and yet he has been placed under psychiatric surveillance - an unresponsive patient who is woken each night by terrible nightmares. Only psychiatrist Martin Dysart seems able to grasp the answer to this psychological puzzle.
