The Harry Potter star, 18, is preparing for his Broadway debut in the transfer of the London revival of Peter Shaffer’s psychological stage drama Equus, which took the London’s West End by storm when it opened in February 2007 – thanks to, among several reasons, Radcliffe’s nearly 10-minute nude scene. So those who truly want to see Radcliffe’s natural wand and his ping pong should start checking out tickets now!
Radcliffe’s role as a tortured teen in the show will go on view this fall for 22 weeks, Reuters reports. Previews begin Sept. 5 at the Broadhurst Theatre, with an official opening night of Sept. 25, say producers.
As for Radcliffe, he recently expressed some anxiety to Reuters about starring in the Big Apple. “It will be amazing,” he said, “but I will be terrified because I was talking to [costar] Richard Griffiths about playing New York, and he said the most stupid thing you can do is underestimate New York audiences.” – People magazine
