McDonald's in Lights

This is the largest metropolitan McDonald's restaurant in America, located at 42nd Street in the Theatre district. The 17,500-square-foot McDonald's restaurant is housed in the landmark Candler building. It features a full-length theatre marquee with 7,500 light bulbs.

Theatre District's 45th Street

One of the most popular attractions in Manhattan is the Broadway Theatre District or more commonly known as Broadway. The theatre district runs from 53rd to 42nd Streets between 6th and 8th Avenues. This is a view of 45th Street at night showing the lights of the Booth, Schoenfeld, Jacobs, Golden and the Al Hirschfeld Theatres. 

MARQUEE: EQUUS with RICHARD GRIFFITHS and DANIEL RADCLIFFE

I took these photos of the marquee at the Broadhurst Theatre where previews of the much-anticipated play EQUUS begins in a little more than a week. The marquee features artwork in which the naked upper body of DANIEL RADCLIFFE, the show's star, is eerily merged with a horse’s head.

Daniel Radcliffe and Richard Griffiths — who played to sold-out crowds in the 2007 London revival of Shaffer's 1973 drama — reprise their work for this Broadway transfer. Based upon a true account told to the playwright by a friend, Equus is the story of psychiatrist Martin Dysart who investigates the blinding of six horses, a savage act committed by an unassuming 17-year-old stable boy, Alan Strang, whose family life is rife with bigotry and religious fervor. As Dysart exposes the truths behind the boy's demons, he finds himself face-to-face with his own.
