UK - After thirty years, the powerful drama Equus has returned to London's West End, with lighting designed by David Hersey and supplied by PRG Europe. Daniel Radcliffe, better known for playing the lead role in the Harry Potter movies, plays the part of a 17-year old who has a passion for horses, with Richard Griffiths as psychiatrist Martin Dysart.

Written by Peter Shaffer in 1973, the show, which is produced by David Pugh and directed by Thea Sharrock, has received rave reviews since it started previews on 16 February with a standing ovation for Radcliffe, surprising many of his critics. The lighting includes some 140 Source Four luminaires and over thirty moving lights, as well as a number of custom gobos produced by PRG Europe's Gobo Resource facility.

Production electrician for the show, which is being staged at the Gielgud Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue, is Ian Moulds; project manager for PRG Europe is Craig Bennett.
