About the Show

What prompts a 17-year-old boy to blind six horses? This is the challenge presented to psychiatrist Martin Dysart as he delves into the psyche of his young patient Alan Strang to search for the answers and at the same time questioning whether the cure is more dangerous than the crime.

Peter Shaffer‘s brilliantly intriguing award-winning play EQUUS is now considered a modern masterpiece.

Directed by Lindsay Posner, EQUUS runs at Menier Chocolate Factory from 8 May to 4 July 2026.

Presented in a co-production with Theatre Royal Bath
