GODS
of TERROR
in the
MIND'S EYE
EQUUS is an electrifying journey into the mind of a 17-year-old stableboy who has plunged a steel spike into the eyes of six horses. As a psychiatrist explores the young boy's tortured psyche, the play becomes a shattering confrontation between the passionate spirit of the life force itself, and the distortions forced on the spirit by "civilized" society.
