Saw Harry Potters Cock (or Equus as it's more commonly known) on Friday night and a couple of things sprung to mind:
1. Yes you do see it in all it's "glory"
2. I found it very disturbing, seeing as most people still think of him as 12 years old.
3. The lighting on the female made it look like she'd had the full monty waxed.
4. How come a 17 year old male can simulate sexual intercourse with an attractive young lady and not get a stiffy? At that age if the wind was blowing in the right direction I was ready for action.
As mentioned above I'm a bit dubious about the advertising for this which is basically "See Harry Potters Cock!" and then you have the play itself.
Now it's very well done and young master Radcliffe is really rubbish for the first 5 minutes but comes onto a game later on but it's quite possibly the most sexist piece of theatre I've ever seen. With the exception of the Nurse all of the female characters come across as either religious fundamentalists, pushy harridans or teenage slappers.

I was going to see it, but then I found out tickets were something ridiculous like £50. I'm not going to pay that much to see Harry's wand.

Indeed, he said that not me!
...and the cheapest tickets are £19.50 although you'll probably have to go on a Monday night or a Matinee to get them.

What would the Daily Mail make of it? "SICK CHILD PORN BEFORE WATERSHED"

That's the Express surely? The Mail would say that it lowered house prices.

It's easy to remember. The Express is dedicated to the maintainance of high morals, decency and values and is run by a porn baron. The Mail is dedicated to the maintenance of high morals, decency and values and is run by facists.

The Express - Diana
The Mail - Immigrants, House Prices, Breast Cancer
The Sun - Paedophiles
The Mirror - Cherie Blair
The Star - The tits of a Big Brother contestant
The Sport - Fake pictures of the tits of a Big Brother contestant
All of them mix and match, but there are the core obsessions of the tabloids.

I thought The Sun was focused on the Muslims. And outdated, inaccurate and crap celebrity gossip.

All I know is I'm not allowed to bring the Daily Mail in the house, or I'm getting written out of my Dad's will.

I shamefully broke my resolution to never buy the Daily Mail the other week, just so I could get a free DVD of Joan Collins in Sins.

The money you paid will in part go towards getting La Collins a new cleavage enhancing bustier, or perhaps a big hat. Money well spent. So long as you didn't read the "newspaper". |

I saw it last night (Equus that is).
It's Richard Griffiths who carries the play and is wonderful - he made it much more amusing than I was preared for it to be aswell. Daniel Radcliffe is very good. Special mention to the fragrant Jenny Agutter for not taking off her knickers to stop a train.
Why did you think he was rubbish for the first 5 minutes? or was that just the performance you saw?
The play is quite seventies and I'm not sure whether we were supposed to think it was still the seventies or not? had some references been updated?
As for the female characters, they really are all minor roles and a bit 2D.

You can find a picture on thesuperficial.com, I think it's in the archives now.
I'm a little ashamed that I know that.

I'm a little ashamed that I know that. And yet it's such useful information that it would be wrong to keep it to yourself. I think you can counter your shame with the knowledge that you have provided a public service for a lot of gays, amongst others. |

It's a fake - the Photoshopped join is totally obvious. One would imagine.

It's a Peter Shaffer play: of course the female roles are going to be rubbish. He's at his best when writing about monomaniacs.
This level of squeeing over a 17 year old boy's bits upsets me. Especially in newspapers which are very shrill about the oversexualisation of children.
At least I'll never have 'Harry Potter' shouted at me in the street again though.
