Broadway Cares Equus bear raises thousands (UPDATED)
Earlier in the month we told you about a bear, modelled on a scene from
Equus , that was signed by Dan Radcliffe & his co-stars, that was to be auctioned off in aid of
Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids .
A live auction was held yesterday in New York where the bear was sold for $10,000. This was the second highest grossing lot after a bear based on the show
Spamalot . In the programme, it was the second to last to be auctioned off and it received, "a lot of interest by phone, online and live."
You can see a photo of the bear with its creator, Nicolas Putvinski,
here .
