Equus

In Equus, Peter Shaffer brings together two powerhouse roles, psychiatrist Martin Dysart (Toby Stephens) and his teenage patient Alan Strang (Noah Valentine). Inspired by a true story, the play sees a bond developing between the boy and the doctor as Dysart searches for answers to the teenager’s obsessive interest in the horses he cares for. The Theatre Royal Bath hosts the only performances outside of London for this brand-new co-production with the critically acclaimed Menier Chocolate Factory. One of the country’s most-sought-after directors, Lindsay Posner leads a stellar creative team including Paul Farnsworth (set & costume design), Paul Pyant (lighting design), Adam Cork (sound design), and movement from Olivier Award winning choreographer James Cousins.
