Post ‘Equus’ on Broadway?

There are rumors of the Equus production coming to Broadway, with both Richard Griffiths and Dan Radcliffe reprising their roles on the New York stage after filming for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is complete.

According to the Daily Mail:

Quote:
Roger Berlind, a veteran New York theatre producer, said that if the production with Radcliffe and his fellow leading man, Richard Griffiths, wanted to move to Broadway, he would help raise the finance to present it.
He said that he thought Radcliffe was a "natural stage performer".
And the New York Post had the following to say:

Quote:
The London revival of Peter Shaffer's powerful drama about a teenage boy who takes off his clothes and blinds horses began previews on Friday, but it has caused so much buzz that producers already are planning to bring it to Broadway in the fall.

The production ends its limited run at the beginning of June, when Radcliffe takes off to film the sixth installment of the "Harry Potter" series.
The plan is to move the production to Broadway after that, with Griffiths and Radcliffe reprising their roles.
Read into it what you will. The timing doesn’t make sense unless they’re referring to fall of 2008.
