Actor Daniel Radcliffe has finally cast off his Harry Potter cloak - literally - and a group of Murray State theatre students will get to see it.
Theatre and Dance Lecturer Lissa Graham-Schneider will take a group of students to London during Spring Break, and in between sightseeing and shopping, they plan to see Radcliffe star in the stage show "Equus." It premiered last week, and the young Hogwartz prodigy received rave reviews for his portrayal of a troubled boy who blinds horses. The show has create a buzz for a few months now, because the play requires the 17 year-old teen role-model to perform a scene completely in the buff. Soccer moms are up in arms.
Reviews are mixed, though. Critics boast on Radcliffe's gutsy performance, but they say the play - written in 1973 - is now outdated and doesn't support the actor's talent. Graham-Schneider's crew probably will enjoy it though, and I have to admit, even though I really never want to see Harry Potter's magic, I'm a little jealous of their chance to witness the controversy.
