Restored to its original roots in England in the early 1970's, Equus blazes anew with theatrical life this summer at The Chandler Studio Theatre under the lead of The Production Company's Artistic Director August Viverito.

One night in England a young stable hand attacked six horses in their stable. He systematically put their eyes out. It seems motiveless. He loved horses. He almost worshiped them - yet one night, one by one, in an incomprehensible act of violence he blinded them. Why? The boy was sick. Of course, he was sick, but why?
The performances blaze with theatrical life. Dr. Martin Dysart is brilliantly played with conflicted sensitivity by Jim Hanna, recently seem in The Ark Theatre's The Mystery of Irma Vep. Alan Strang is a theatrical revelation as inhabited by the boyish Patrick Stafford with indelible passion and heart-rending desperation. It is a production full of mesmerizing performances including Karen Furno, John Joyce III, Gretchen Koerner, Skip Pipo, Aaron Misakian, Michael Rachlis, & Lauren Schneider.
