[HPFGU-OTChatter] Equus

[Cabal]

I love when a reviewer complains that a person famous for something else
pulls attention away... that means that the reviewer was focusing on
Radcliff because the reviewer couldn't get over it being Harry Potter on the
stage.

There was a review of Equus in the Washington Post a few weeks ago. At 
first I thought the play was coming  here, but no, the review was from 
Broadway.

The writer stated that Daniel R did an adequate job, but his fame 
pulled attention to his character and away from the therapist. 
According to the review the therapist, not the young man, is the real 
main character of the play. The reviewer also said Richard Griffiths 
did an outstanding job.

Just wondering what those of you who saw the play think of this review?

Richard Griffiths shows up in the most unexpected places. I just caught 
the tail end of "Saving Bess"---or is it "Protecting Bess" on the TV. 
It's a movie with Nicholas Cage and Shirley McClain. I saw it when it 
first came out and to my surprise, Richard Griffiths is in it. It was 
my husband who recognised him.
