POTTED POTTER Extends Run Through February 25 Image

Broadway In Chicago, Starvox Entertainment and Potted Productions are delighted to announce that Potted Potter: The Unauthorized Harry Potter Experience - A Parody by Dan and Jeff will be extending its Chicago engagement for a second time this winter at Broadway In Chicago's Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place (175 E. Chestnut) through February 25, 2018. The hit off-Broadway show has returned to the Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place for its third season and is adding new performances in Chicago due to popular demand. Individual tickets for new performances are on sale now at all Broadway In Chicago Box Offices and www.broadwayinchicago.com. A limited number of $15 and $30 tickets will be available for performances Feb. 8-Feb.18, 2018 as part of Chicago Theatre Week presented by the League of Chicago Theatres in partnership with Choose Chicago. For more information on Chicago Theatre week, visit www.chicagotheatreweek.com.

A Critic's Pick by the Daily Herald, New York Times, New York Magazine, Time Out London, Washington Post and Boston Globe, the show won the prestigious 2012 Olivier Awardnomination for Best Entertainment & Family Show, playing to sold-out houses worldwide.

Created by former BBC Television hosts Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, the play takes on the ultimate challenge of condensing, or "potting", all seven Harry Potter books into 70 madcap minutes, aided only by multiple costume changes, brilliant songs, ridiculous props and a generous helping of Hogwarts magic. The show also invites audiences to engage with a real life game of Quidditch, but according to Clarkson and Turner's unique set of rules.

Whether you camped outside a bookstore for three days awaiting the release of the Deathly Hallows or you don't know the difference between a horcrux and a Hufflepuff, the comedy, magic and mayhem of Potted Potter: The Unauthorized Harry Experience - A Parody by Dan and Jeff makes for an entertaining and hilarious visit to the theatre. The fast-paced show, which has made audiences aged six to Dumbledore (who is very old indeed) roar with laughter all over the world, is perfect for the entire family.

Individual tickets for Potted Potter: The Unauthorized Harry Experience - A Parody by Dan and Jeff at the Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place are on sale now andrange from $25-$69.95 with a select number of premium seats available. A limited number of $15 and $30 tickets will be available for performances Feb. 8-Feb.18, 2018 as part of Chicago Theatre Week presented by the League of Chicago Theatres in partnership with Choose Chicago.
