Well, this is difinitely a big step for Dan, but I'm guessing that with all of the positive reviews he's getting, he's up to it. Hope he doesn't get to big for Harry, like that's possible.

All the reviews appear positive. It still seems a strange role for Dan to choose, but it is breaking him out of the mold he feared.

Pretty good reviews. It seems like a very thought provoking play with deep themes. I don't know if I'd be interested in it other than to see Daniel.

I have enjoyed reading the fans' opinions during the EQUUS previews, but it is a major relief to finally reach opening night and get such wonderful reviews from neutral theatre critics. Daniel has laid his career on the line to do EQUUS, and his obvious success vindicates his gutsy (and much-maligned) choice to tackle this controversial play. Congrats to the entire cast and crew--I can't wait until May, when I get to experience EQUUS for myself.

Wow, it's getting excellent reviews!!! I knew Dan could pull it off!!! It sounds like he does a brilliant job, and this'll broaden his experiences with acting, from children's films to live onstage with a load of adult content. Way to go Dan, and break a leg with the rest of your performances!!!
