As TLC reported late last week, actor Dan Radcliffe (Harry Potter) was among the many Broadway actors to take part in the 20th Annual Gypsy of the Year Event, benefiting the Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS Charity. Video of from the event is now online and features the young actor answering a few questions about his first performance in the annual event. In this short clip, Mr. Radcliffe discuses the original song he penned for the performance, along with the continued fund raising offers his play Equus has participated in for the cause. Video clips include Mr. Radcliffe's stage performance and his receiving the honor for highest fund raising Broadway production of the year. The video clip can be viewed via this link.
Readers will remember that the play Equus contributed a total of $203,746 towards the grand total of $3,061,148 the Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS Charity raised this at the event.
LOL!!!! It’s a great video, and the title is such a great pun for the theatrical set ("The Love That Dare Not Speak Its ‘Neigh’"!)
Congrats to Dan and "Equus" and cheers for charity events such as this that help those affected by AIDS. Sadly AIDS has had such an incredibly deep and devastating impact on the artistic and theatrical communities.
HOLLYMOLLY ! that was Awesome, Dan can dance and sing, magnificent actor, evidently, movies and stage, composer and poet, and can really command an attention (highest fund raiser). What’s next, Dan? Dancing with the Stars LOL! I’ll love that:)
lol. Dan is funny and hyperactive as usual! I am wondering though if its worth Leaky giving readers warning of foul language used in Youtube comments. Youtube is quite notorious for its comments regardless of the video content. There is absolutely no monitoring or obscene language filtering on there.

Every time i’ve watched that video, i can’t help laughing. They were all so good, and Dan was such an excellent sport. They were one of the two groups to get a double curtain call on the monday show. Also the full clip is available on Youtube now, seen from the balcony. Absolutely wonderful. Bravo, Dan and company!
I heard there would be a DVD of the whole night’s performances – proceeds going to the charity too – it’s a shame I probably won’t get a chacne to get in the UK. I’d love that song and dance routine.
"I didn't think of Voldemort," said Harry honestly. "I -- I remembered those dementors."[br]"I see," said Lupin thoughtfully. "Well, well... I'm impressed." He smiled slightly at the look of surprise on Harry's face. "That suggests that what you fear most
