Harry Potter is Broadway bound – well – sort of.Daniel Radcliffe, the icon of “Harry Potter” movies, makes his Broadway debut on Sept. 5 in the play “Equus.” Radcliffe plays the stable boy who is blinded by six horses and appears undressed on stage.
According to Hollywood Reporter, Radcliffe earned rave reviews for his performance in the London production. He also received loads of media attention for appearing naked onstage — a departure from his wholesome image as the bespectacled boy wizard in the big-screen adaptations of J.K. Rowling’s best-selling fantasy novels.
Richard Griffiths, who portrays Harry’s mean Uncle Vernon in the “Potter” movies, reprises his London role as the psychiatrist who treats the stable boy who has blinded six horses.
“Equus” begins previews Sept. 5 for a limited 22-week run at the Broadhurst Theatre.
