Equus is the story of seventeen-year-old Alan Strang who, after blinding six horses in the stables where he works, is referred to psychiatric treatment in lieu of prison time. His psychiatrist is Martin Dysart, a married man in mid-life who is beginning to question the true worth of bringing children back from madness. Through his attempt to understand the motivations for Alan’s seemingly senseless crime, Dysart explores the realms of sex, passion, religion and modern psychiatry.
