EQUUS
by Peter Shaffer
THE BATTLE BETWEEN PSYCHIATRY AND RELIGION, AND THE YOUNG MAN TORN BETWEEN THEM! ONE OF THE MOST RIVETING DRAMAS OF THE 20TH CENTURY!
The play that changed Nearly Naked Theatre forever… Peter Shaffer’s spellbinding drama about a young man who inexplicably blinds six horses with an iron spike, and the psychiatrist who tries desperately to bring him back
from the brink. Rife with powerful images and themes of religious and sexual repression, EQUUS is as much about the old gods and it is the new, and the bloody sacrifices made in the name of The Normal.
Following our spectacularly successful re-mount of Shakespeare’s R&J last season, EQUUS is the play we’re most-asked to bring back… an evening of theatre you will never ever forget!
FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY: ADULT THEMES & LANGUAGE, SEXUALITY AND NUDITY.
