Nude Harry Potter Heading to Broadway

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has begun preparations for his upcoming Broadway debut, which will see him reprise the role of Alan in Peter Shaffer’s psychological stage drama Equus.
The 18-year-old boy wizard will drop his pants in front of a New York audience when the production goes on show in the States this fall.
Previews will begin on September 5 at the Broadhurst Theatre, with an official opening night scheduled for September 25.
Though Radcliffe is excited about starring on Broadway, he’s a little anxious that his 10-minute nude scene won’t go down as well in the Big Apple as it did in London.
“It will be amazing,” Radcliffe said, “but I will be terrified because I was talking to [costar] Richard Griffiths about playing New York, and he said the most stupid thing you can do is underestimate New York audiences.”
