^Awww. But the play is phenomenal! lol my dear, phenomenal or not, only the idea of a play with a naked boy/man riding a horse naked turns my stomach If they cut those naked parts, than I would give it a chance. AH! And now, thanks to this, when I went to see HP 5 on the movies I'll gave that horrible picture of Daniel naked... Let us hope that Luna Lovegood makes me forget it (since the girl they casted is gorgeous. ;D)

^While I do think it's odd to see Daniel Radcliffe in the part.... That reaction is part of what makes the play powerful. It's uses a bit of a shock factor to jolt people out of their seats. It's (or should be) done tastefully, so if it still bothers you then I would not see the play without the nudity because it reduces the effect and doesn't drive across the meaning of the play as well. One thing people need to realize is that it's not about riding a horse naked. It's not about man and horse. It's about feeling true passion and honestly believing in a faith. It just happens to use a brilliant alienation technique to get to the point.
And I don't mean to argue, it's just that I love the message this play gives and I love Peter Shaffer's work.

So it seems. I still think its imoral and very bad taste to have such thing on stage...but hey, I'm a very conservative person
