Celebrating opening night, Daniel Radcliffe walked the red carpet at the Cort Theatre in New York City on Sunday night (April 20).
The “Harry Potter” actor kept it casual before suiting up in his costume for “The Cripple of Inishmaan,” in which he stars alongside Pat Shortt and Gillian Hanna.
The play is a dark comedy by Martin McDonagh who links the story to the real life filming of the documentary Man of Aran and is set in Ireland.
McDonagh discussed his work and said, "I hope someday they’ll be regarded as true Irish stories; I don’t think they are at this minute. It will take a long time for the baggage of me being a Londoner to be in the past.”...

Daniel Radcliffe came out for the curtain call at the Broadway premiere of The Cripple of Innishmaan over the weekend, taking a bow as the audience applauded his performance.
Daniel Radcliffe In 'Cripple Of Innishmaan'
Radcliffe, 24, is taking his third turn on the theater stage following his performances in Equus and How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying. In The Cripple of Innishmaan, he plays 17-year-old “Cripple Billy,” the butt of jokes for the people in his small island community off the west coast of Ireland. He spends the majority of his days with his nose in the pages of books or staring off at the cows – until he acquires an interest in the idea of being an actor in Hollywood.
Thus far, Radcliffe has received glowing reviews from theater critics for his performance. “The star in question, Daniel Radcliffe, isn’t here just to flex his charisma for fans,...

Daniel Radcliffe is currently prepping for his third stint on Broadway, this time in a quirky play called The Cripple of Inishmaan, a dark 1996 comedy from Martin McDonagh. Radcliffe stars as Billy, a disabled Irish boy who has big dreams of making it in Hollywood when a documentary crew shows up to film on a nearby Irish island.
This production originally premiered in London last year at the Noel Coward Theater. The upcoming Broadway outing reunites Radcliffe with his West End cast mates, including Ingrid Craigie, Padraic Delaney, Sarah Greene, Gillian Hanna, Gary Lilburn, Conor MacNeill, Pat Shortt, and June Watson.

After making a bold Broadway debut in the powerful equine drama Equus and following up with a singing, dancing stint in the glossy 1960s musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, the always astonishing Daniel Radcliffe is back for round three on the Broadway stage — in something completely, totally different.
Radcliffe willreprise his role as Billy in playwright Martin McDonagh’s 1996 black comedy The Cripple of Inishmaan, which follows a handicapped Irish boy (Radcliffe) who dreams of appearing in a documentary being filmed by a Hollywood crew on a nearby island (the real-life 1934 film Man of Aran).

If you didn’t get a chance to see Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe in 2008′s Equus or the 2011 revival of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, you’ve got another opportunity to catch the Boy Who Acted on the Great White Way.

Noel Coward, London
Imagine a dramatic hero who stands no chance of being kissed "unless it was by a blind girl" and of whom it is said, by an adoptive aunt, "you'd see nicer eyes on a goat". Daniel Radcliffe is not the first name that would leap to mind in the casting of such a role. But he is the undoubted star of Michael Grandage's revival of Martin McDonagh's 1997 play and proves, as he did in Equus, that he is a fine stage actor with a gift for playing social outsiders.
Radcliffe is the eponymous hero, a disabled 17-year-old orphan named Billy Claven, of McDonagh's ingenious play. Dejected and generally derided, the bookish Billy is brought up by his "aunties" on the isle of Inishmaan. But the dullness of daily life is suddenly relieved when in 1934 Hollywood film-maker Robert Flaherty descends on a neighbouring isle to make...
