Back in July we posted a report that Harry Potter actors Daniel Radcliffe and Richard Griffiths would be starring
in a production of Equus in the spring on London’s West End.
Now two Daniel Radcliffe fan sites, DR.co.uk and DR.com are giving fans the chance to purchase tickets for the play before they go on sale to the general public.
Dan had this to say in a message to both sites:
I just wanted to thank all my fans for the tremendous support you have shown me in my forthcoming role of Alan Strang in Peter Shaffer's Equus. As you know, this is an incredibly powerful drama and the decision to play this part was not one taken lightly. This role will stretch me as an actor further than I can possibly imagine and I am so excited to be involved in this production and to be directed in my theatre debut by one of the most talented directors working today, Thea Sharrock. I am also delighted to be starring opposite Richard Griffiths who of course, aside from playing 'my Uncle Vernon' was just recently awarded a Tony for his performance in The History Boys. He is truly a remarkable actor and there is no one I'd rather have guide me through this unique stage experience. Thank you again, your support means the world to me".
Please go to both sites for information on the Equus web site as well as information on dates and ticket prices.

Wow! I wish I was in England so I could go see it! I'm so happy it's giving Dan this chance to expand his acting skills. I think he improves in every movie and he will continue to do so. As a theatre major, I say it's refreshing to see an actor so dedicated to his work. Break a leg, Dan!

I'm so glad he's trying to stretch himself as an actor by taking really difficult roles. That's how you learn and get better.
What I'd kill to get my hands on some tickets. . .
Toodles!

Well as I live across the pond I won't be going to see this theater production no matter what. However, I am still not so sure I would go to see it any way. It is such a disturbing piece and to see "Harry" interacting with his "Uncle Vernon" as his psychiatrist is just too ::shudders:: disturbing for this chica.
