A rare theatrical event: a special reading of Equinox, a new play by Laurie Slade, with a rehearsed reading concept by Sean Mathias, directed by Laurie Slade and André Agius and performed by Ian McKellen. The play follows Ed, an older man trapped in a strange room, wrestling with his past, conflicted desires, and visions of alternative realities. At once witty, poetic, and raw, Equinox is a meditation on mortality, meaning, and the stories we tell ourselves at life’s end—with flashes of cosmic vision and queer desire. In McKellen’s hands, this one-man performance promises to be unforgettable: intimate, daring, and deeply human.
