In Equus, press notes state, "psychiatrist Martin Dysart investigates the blinding of six horses, a savage act committed by an unassuming 17-year-old stable boy, Alan Strang, whose family life is rife with bigotry and religious fervor. As Dysart exposes the truths behind the boy's demons, he finds himself face-to-face with his own."
Equus plays the Broadhurst Theatre, located in Manhattan at 235 West 44th Street. Tickets, priced $66.50-$116.50 (with premium seats at $251.50), are available by calling (212) 221-7300, ext. 133.
