| | |  Educating Dan
In a recent radio interview with the BBC, Equus director Thea Sharrock discussed how she prepared Dan for his stage debut and coached him in the finer points of theatrical acting. Quote:
He is an absolute brilliant actor in his own right. It's an enormous leap for any 17-year-old to do. He brings with him an extraordinary discipline and level of professionalism. He has seven years of incredibly intense acting experience. Dan had wanted to do it (Equus) for quite some time, however due to scheduling conflicts, the option was incredibly tight. We went to the theatre a lot and began to watch actors and how the placement of actors creates either a stronger or weaker presence. The most training needed to be put in place with voice preparation. Dan prepared for 18 months, and it paid off.
You can listen to the entire radio interview on RealPlayer here. (click on “Listen Now”, the interview is about nine minutes in)

Well, I must say I am glad that Daniel Radcliffe turned out to be such a great actor ! He isn't the little "Harry Potter" anymore... he is a true actor.
First to post !*very proud*

That's great! I can tell that with everyone's reactions to Equus that the training paid off!

Dan is brilliant and I'm glad that people are finally realizing it. No one can say he can't act anymore, and if they do they are just jealous.  | |

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

Dan is incredible! That's really nice of her to say that lol... 18 months is a long time, and anyone who critisizes Dan for taking on someone like Equus should look at how long and hard this boy works. Rock on DAn!

I'm so proud of Dan. He has really grown up in these past few years (and in the eyes of the media, which is bound to be difficult). I'm proud of everything he's done.  | |
