It probably will be. I tried searching but haven't found any new pictures.

**LilMouse** · 07-12-2016, 07:37 AM

Original cast is a must, though. I wouldn't see it on Broadway if Dan wasn't in it.

**heaven85** · 07-12-2016, 09:32 PM

Agreed if Dan wasn't in it I don't think it would interest me that much.

**LilMouse** · 07-13-2016, 07:40 AM

Do you know if the play is doing well ticket sale-wise?

**heaven85** · 07-14-2016, 12:21 AM

I think so. Most sties no tickets available and the only site that has then have hiked up the prices so much. Cheapest was 273

**LilMouse** · 07-14-2016, 07:13 AM

eeek, $273 is more money than most Broadway plays.

**heaven85** · 07-14-2016, 06:52 PM

Which is why those tickets are still available

**LilMouse** · 07-15-2016, 07:49 AM

time for them to bring the price down

**heaven85** · 07-16-2016, 02:46 PM

Yep if they want to sell them.

I like how the play has minimal sets. For me, it makes everything scarier.

I would love to see a pic of Dan and Rachel Dratch standing side by side, to see who's taller.

**heaven85** · 07-18-2016, 10:35 PM

Thanks for all those!

**baileycat** · 07-19-2016, 05:38 AM

Opening night, last night

**LilMouse** · 07-19-2016, 07:05 AM

Another red carpet where he looks fantastic.

Privacy reviews!

Quote:

While Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is urging its audience to #KeepTheSecrets, Daniel Radcliffe is Off-Broadway starring in a play that exposes just how the lid has been comprehensively taken off any individual or collective sense of privacy. Nothing remains secret anymore. Radcliffe, an actor whose entire life has been spent in the public gaze, stands in for playwright James Graham as he researches the subject for the production we are watching – and he ends it by making a plea for us to keep the play's surprises private, too.

Privacy is a very meta piece of theatre, and also a highly interactive one. It asks its audience to keep mobile phones switched on throughout, inviting us to take and submit a selfie, for instance. An onstage researcher gleans information about some of us from our online lives.

Since it premiered at London's Donmar Warehouse in 2014, the issues raised by Privacy have only increased in urgency and traction. The age of mass surveillance of our lives envisioned by Orwell has truly arrived, with our iPhones not only tracking but also recording our every movement.

A video appearance by Edward Snowden lends added authenticity and Josie Rourke’s production has been comprehensively overhauled since its debut, with the narrative around the author's own journey through this data minefield more hauntingly personalised. In this way it reminded me of some of Robert Lepage's own autobiographical shows, something amplified by the use of Duncan McLean's brilliant projections.
Radcliffe acquits himself well – as the only actor among the cast of six to play the same person throughout, he emerges more fully formed than the rest of the versatile company, combining amiability, vulnerability and curiosity.

The scene in which I felt most engaged, confused and affected involves little techno sleight of hand, just a very deft performer (that would be Mr. Radcliffe) treading water in an improvisational sequence.

Or was it? I can say no more. But it’s a relief to be able to report that “Privacy” shines brightest when it comes down to a single actor plying centuries-old tricks of his trade.

Quote:

Daniel Radcliffe, who’s made auspicious Broadway appearances in shows including “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” and “The Cripple of Inishman,” is enormously appealing as The Writer in this confounding play.

Hollywood Reporter

Quote:

Radcliffe, who has exhibited an admirable desire to stretch his talents in his post-Harry Potter career, employs his natural charisma and likability to excellent effect here, with his hapless Everyman effectively standing in for audience reactions ranging from bemused to horrified. By the time the evening is over, you'll be fully convinced that the new scariest word in the English language is "metadata."

The Guardian

Quote:

Radcliffe is such an affable actor that you ride happily with him through the archer moments of this set-up and on to New York, where he travels to find his ex and interview a lot of people with theories or experience of internet culture.

USA Today

Quote:

As for Radcliffe, his role here may not seem as flagrantly challenging as past Broadway ventures into musical theater, psychodrama and pitch-black comedy. But it reaffirms his great gift for ensemble acting. This star, for one, clearly thrives on working as part of a community — in the old-fashioned sense of the word.

The Telegraph

Quote:

Snowden drops in the chilling thought that the next generation will have zero privacy, and both men (and a recorded Simon Russell Beale) recite lines from The Tempest – a play all about the yearning for solitude versus the need for society. “The isle is full of noises”, intones Radcliffe, who deserves a high-rating feedback for making a newsworthy noise on this most magical of urban isles.

That cast is very much up to the demands of the evening. Standing out—needless to say—is Radcliffe. The poor lad has faced a bit of a bumpy reception on the New York stage thus far, in revivals of Equus, How to Succeed and The Cripple of Inishmaan. Unfairly so; I found Radcliffe perfectly fine in the first two lukewarm productions, and even better in the third. In Privacy, he gives a very nice performance as the muddled bloke; he also handles the numerous communications with audience members with charm.
