"Who are you? Are you the websites you visit, the music you download, the photos you post? Do you measure your value by your followers and your likes? Who's listening to you? And whom are you watching back..?" the New York theater's website said. "Inspired by the revelations of Edward Snowden, and drawing on dozens of exclusive interviews with the country's top journalists, politicians and academics, Privacy explores our complicated relationship with technology and data through the funny and heartbreaking travails of one lonely guy arriving in the city to figure out how to like, tag and share his life without giving it all away."

Radcliffe is best known for his work in the Harry Potter film franchise, as well as the New York stage productions of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and Equus.
