| Notes | Regretfully less intensive than the play. A middle-aged psychiatrist takes on the task of finding out why a seventeen year old boy blinded six horses. Long speeches, slow pace, some odd reasoning, plus relating the case to Greek myths will put many off. But a great cast and the exposition of some unusual ideas will leave an impression on others. Contains full frontal male nudity. Fom the play by Peter Shaffer.
