| | | Richard Griffiths missing from ‘Equus’ on Saturday
A woefully unprepared understudy took Richard Griffiths’ place for last Saturday’s matinee and evening performances of Equus. Stand-in Colin Haigh is reported to have read the entire script during the whole play.

No way! OMG at least it wasn't dan. I bet the play was awful without him lol. (no effence dan I love you) I heard this play was absolutely magnificent manely because of Richard's and DAniel's chemistry together. Oh well, hope he doesn't miss any more!

Wow, I could never imagine paying to see a play and having an understudy on stage reading his lines! How unprofessional and disappointing.
On another note ... I hope all is well with Richard Griffiths. *Sending him good thoughts*

Wow what happened? I hope Richard is well and it's nothing serious. It's awful that the understudy was so unprepaired. That's not fair to those who went to see the play and the understudy was standing there reading from the scrpit while every one else knew their lines  . It must really have taken away from the show. |

I would suck to fly all the way to England to see the play and to get stuck with an understudy doing the part. Hopefully Richard is okay.
At least Richard isn't filling in for Dan. *snark*

Well, the understudy probably got a chewing out for a poor performance and I am sure the audience was disappointed not to see Richards. he may not be feeling well, or he could have layrngitis. Doing several shows a week can put a strain on the vocal cords.
