Equus on Broadway to begin September 5th
Equus on Broadway to begin September 5th Back in November we told you that Equus, a very mature play featuring Dan Radcliffe (Harry) and Richard Griffiths (Uncle Vernon), will be coming to Broadway.

We've now learned that the play will commence previews on September 5th, with opening night falling on September 25th. It will run for 22 weeks, ending on February 8th (just under two years from when Dan made his Equus debut).

Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip!

Posted by sazzou Apr 8th 2008

I wonder if thatll affect the filming of the movies, though, I think filming doesnt start until Feb 2009. So it shouldnt though...right?

Posted by kooldude10694 Apr 9th 2008

Congrats! I guess. Even though I'm not going. I'd rather not see Dan Radcliffe "exposed". lol.


Posted by chaibabachai Apr 9th 2008

I think they said somewhere that they were working the filming schedule so that he could do the play. can't wait to go!


Posted by tiassa Apr 9th 2008

So much news yay! I wish I could go see it.


Posted by HP8 Apr 9th 2008

Posted by honeydukes0209 Apr 9th 2008

Wish I could go see it...NY's too far from where I live, though -_-...fooie...


Posted by ronsgirlmku Apr 9th 2008

Posted by fanatic Apr 9th 2008

I am so happy to hear about this info because it means that it is getting closer. I wish they told us when the tickets go on sale to people that do not have an


Posted by JamesPotter4life Apr 9th 2008

I wonder what my mom would say if I asked if i could go? :P


Posted by Padfoot777 Apr 9th 2008

Cool, he is in the play, but I do not want to see Dan like THAT! :( That is a bit much for me, but that is a very good pic of him under the title of the news, but I do not want to see him like that! Even though it would be so cool to be in the same building as my favorite actor!:)


Posted by sillyme Apr 9th 2008

omg i need to see this! just to see dan in person, even if hes not playin harry lol. this will be a great 'welcome to junior year' consolation gift.


Posted by chommy Apr 9th 2008

I know I can't go so I hope new pictures come out!


Posted by mrsfredw Apr 9th 2008

ooo...does anyone know how much the tickets are selling for or when they will begin selling them??


Posted by chommy Apr 9th 2008

@crazz25: I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU!


Posted by horsetrek Apr 9th 2008

I can't wait and I hope I get to see Equus. I would absolutely love to just see Dan in person,that would be awesome.


Posted by SlytherinBabe Apr 9th 2008

I'm not a Dan 'fangirl' but to see him in person would be too cool!! We need to get Alan Rickman up there instead of Dan WHOOHOO!


Posted by RubyWizard24 Apr 9th 2008

It is rumored that Equus will take up the Nederlander Theater once RENT has finished on Sept 7th. Tickets for new Broadway shows generally go on sale about 2-3 months before the first show.


Posted by Stephanie_loves_hp Apr 9th 2008

Dang I have to go!


Posted by adriennecray Apr 9th 2008

I'M TOTALLY COMING, baby! =]


Posted by HpAlwaysN4ever Apr 9th 2008

Interesting. Maybe I'll see it during winter break.


Posted by slugclubgirl77 Apr 9th 2008

thatss awesome! I want to see it!!yeahhh hpgirl_91 is Dan going to be in it or is he filming? ? ? ?


Posted by nicole_hplover12 Apr 9th 2008

yay!!! that's the day of my birthday! i cannot wait to go to nyc and see him, it's gonna be amazing!!!


Posted by Ganger345 Apr 9th 2008

I don't think I could ever go see this. Seeing Dan "exposed" would totally ruin my image of harry potter. I could never look at the movies in the same way again.


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Apr 9th 2008

Dan is so hawt


Posted by angelina_johnson92 Apr 9th 2008

That's cool, but I totally agree with Padfoot777 about seeing Dan naked. It would be soo cool to be in the same room as him, but I still think of him as the little boy he was in the first film. I hope the people that do go enjoy it. Im only 15, (i'll be 16 by then) so my parents would never take me!


Posted by adriandoher Apr 9th 2008

YES! ive been wondering and asking when the date would be!! i live in Central America and i will do everything that i can to visit NYC in september!!!!! im so happy!! yay


Posted by grednforge Apr 9th 2008

22 weeks!! That's a looooong time!! Um, shouldn't he be filming for harry potter?? But I realllllly wanna go see it! It looks like such an amazing and creepy play!


Posted by alexxx Apr 9th 2008

dude, can he be any hotter in this play? woooo dawgy! lmao! yeah i def wanna see it. and the movie comes out in november, im sure hell be done with filming at least a month b4 the movie comes out, dontcha think ?


Posted by rooon Apr 9th 2008

omg! No way! I would give almost anything to go, but I live on the west coast and my parents would never let me. : (


Posted by jeannie22 Apr 9th 2008

*does fan girl squeal even though she is in her mid-twenties* I'm SO THERE!!!


Posted by hpintwense06 Apr 9th 2008

that's cool. i doubt i will ever see it though.


Posted by lilyevans412 Apr 9th 2008

I saw it London last summer with my parents. We didn't even know it was still playing, but then we saw aposter and bought tickets on the spot. Dan does a great job and it's definitely worth seeing!


Posted by redfreckles Apr 10th 2008

ah, poor Andrew went all the way to London just to see it. Now Dan comes here. I think it's great that Dan is trying to break out of being type casted. Though Personally I'd never see the show, but stage actors pwn. (not that I'm a Theatre Major or anything....)


Posted by MagicMaker222 Apr 10th 2008

Dan falls in love with a horse..not something i want to see. Not very magical but he is branching out which is a good thing.


Posted by heronxobsessed74 Apr 10th 2008

That's why they're not premiering a movie in 2009, right?? Ugh. That annoys me so much.


Posted by heronxobsessed74 Apr 10th 2008

But I didn't know Uncle Vernon was in it!


Posted by Dadu701 Apr 11th 2008

hey i no this sounds wierd but im actually really curious...for those of u that have seen the play how big is dan's p*nis? now i know poeple are going to be all "u dont get the play" i do get and i have seen it before and read it. i just wanted to know please tell me haha so just tell me what it looks like


Posted by magicalxdreamer Apr 12th 2008

I am SO excited :] I got tickets this morning for previews and I'm pretty sure my scream ripped a hole in the space time continuum, but well why wouldn't it? Three cheers for broadway and credit cards :]


Posted by MBish024 Apr 14th 2008

Dan looks soo hott.
