Daniel Radcliffe says it “would be great” to get an erection on stage while
performing in ‘Equus’.

The 19-year-old actor strips off in the controversial play about a boy with
a partly religious, partly sexual fascination with horses, and admits he
would feel more comfortable if the audience saw his manhood in all its
glory.

The ‘Harry Potter’ actor, who is currently appearing in New York’s Broadway
theater district, said: "A friend asked me once, 'Are you worried about
getting an erection on stage?' I said, 'No, that would be great!' Rather the
opposite takes place actually."

Daniel admits he will never get used to baring all on stage.

He added: "The play was there to do. Someone had to do it. If you take the
job, you take everything that comes with it.

“It's never going to be the most comfortable thing to be naked in front of
people on stage. Personally, it’s not my thing. For some people it's great -
but not for me.”

Daniel spent 18 months preparing his body for the role of mentally disturbed
Alan Strang because he “knew he would be appearing naked”. He also employed
a vocal coach to strengthen his voice before starting the original London
run of the production.

Daniel can next be seen in new movie ‘Harry Potter and the Half Blood
Prince’ which is due for a July 2009 release.
