Earlier we told you that “Equus” would preview on Broadway September 5, formally open on September 25, with tickets to the play becoming available as a special to Amex gold card holders this weekend. While that still holds true, tickets to the general public will go on sale April 26 via Telecharge.com. We’ve had many many requests for specific information on these ticket prices and details on the dates of the play starring Dan Radcliffe and Richard Griffiths. As of today, the prices and dates are as follows:
Tickets purchased online and by phone are subject to a per ticket service charge of $7.00 and a per order handling fee. Handling fees vary by how your tickets are delivered.
What about the time in November he’ll be promoting HBP? Is they play shutting down for that time or are the understudies doing the performances? The people that don’t really follow HP (and don’t realize he has a film to promote) but do want to see Daniel in this play may be disappointed if they go to the play during HBP promotion dates.
This is pretty much what the West End schedule was like. They do get Mondays off once the previews are over, it looks like. But eight shows a week is standard.
Not that I’m exactly surprised, but wow, these are verrry expensive tickets.
lily: Yeah, pictures seem to be chosen randomly (by a code, I’m guessing).. when the new is about Dan, there’s a Dan picture. Get over it lol
Anyway, wow, those prices are high O_o; ... I got tickets for the french version in montreal (live there) and they cost me less than 35$ (I got student price)
yes this is pretty much the West End schedule, which was Tue to Sat evenings plus Wed and Sat matinees.
Dan could do HBP promotion (chat shows etc) on Sundays or Mondays throughout this period. Also, I notice Nov 27 is no performance, doesn’t HBP open about that time? That date sounds a coincidence. I wonder if it is the Premiere?
This is Broadway – the prices are “up there”, so to speak. The average ticket, though, seems to be about the same price as the London tickets.
On dr.co.uk, the web mistress is saying that he is scheduled to perform in every performance AND plans to attend the London and NY HBP events. That’s the only info I’ve seen on this yet. Leaky’s Order partner hasn’t reported this info.
wht abt the time ard hbp premiere/promo/junkets/press conf/photocalls etc-will run fr world prem to early dec?will he get off?will only emma/rupert be doing it?come onetht is dan too…equus-find a stand in?anyone got details??
Keep in mind, he will have the daytime free for any publicity. Actors in Broadway shows, even the non-famous ones, do a lot of cross-country travelling on Monday to return in time for the Tuesday performance. As for the prices, they are high for a play, which usually never charge the same amount, but that is the standard top price of a ticket on Broadway. Good thing I get to see this show 6 times a week for free!
As far as Radcliffe’s schedule…the producers worked diligently with Radcliffe to determine what days he will need to be away from the show and worked the schedule around it. Since only Radcliffe and Griifiths are the only non-members of Actors Equity, the show’s producers are required to compensate the cast for an 8-show performance schedule, and they aren’t stupid enough to put someone else in. Plus it seems to be around the holidays, when Broadway shows change their schedules to maximize attendance.
That must be really exciting for Daniel and challenging too. I guess he will do just beautifully as he has done since the begining of his career… He will be able to handle Harry Potter publicity as well as his play’s. Maybe they are not going to use him as much for interviews for Harry Potter, they might be using a bit more of Alan Rickman, since his character plays a big role on this movie… Which wouldn’t be bad at all! :)
I’ve just finished to read the play (Equus) and I was blown away by it… Now I totally understand what might have drown Daniel to it… I really would love an opportunity to see him on stage… I wish they would travel around the US with it, that would be awesome… just dreaming :) heheh
Anne: November 27 is Thanksgiving Day, and shows don’t usually run on T-Day or on Christmas Day. It looks like they’ve scheduled extra matinees to make up for it, though.
He raised the cup to his lips and then, just as suddenly, lowered it. One of the horrible painted kittens behind Umbridge had great round blue eyes just like Mad-Eye Moody's magical one, and it had just occurred to Harry what Mad-Eye would say if he ever
thats practically everyday, some with two performances each day for the next 6 months. thats gonna get pretty tiring wouldnt it?
i couldnt recall, but was the West End schedule this rigorous as well?
