Dr. Martin Dysart, a psychiatrist, is confronted with Alan Strang, a boy who has blinded six horses in a violent fit of passion. This very passion is as foreign to Dysart as the act itself. To the boy's parents it is a hideous mystery; Alan has always adored horses. To Dysart, it is a psychological puzzle that leads both doctor and patient to a complex and disturbingly dramatic confrontation. This international success reached new acclaim in London and on Broadway when revived in 2008. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Play, the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding New Foreign Play and the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best in 1975.

The Barn Players is a community theatre that relies on the generosity and support of our patrons and artists. Help our production of EQUUS by sponsoring Nugget, Trooper, Trojan, or our other horses. These funds will go to materials for building our set, costumes, props, and to our personnel. We are a 501C3 non-profit organization and without raising funds for EQUUS, we would not be able to put on the quality performance that our organization has become known for.

Contributors will be listed in the program as a sponsor, and included as a donor for the overall season.

Performance dates: July 31-August 2, 7-10, 14-16.
