I enjoyed it immensely and the reaction to the production is clearly widespread as the production company recouped their investment within the first portion of their stint in London.

Black Coffee is the first play that Agatha Christie wrote for the stage back in 1929, when the show is set.

The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust presents the hit off-Broadway show Potted Potter - The Unauthorized Harry Experience-A Parody by Dan and Jeff, at the Byham Theater in Pittsburgh, PA from tonight, November 20-24, 2013.
Jeff loves Harry Potter and wants to provide an entertaining, yet accurate, recap of all seven of the novels. Dan, who is moderately aware that Harry Potter exists at best, just wants to have fun and play Quidditch. As the two bumble their way through the seven books, storytelling through puppetry, audience participation, and outrageous 1970s song, hijinks ensue and lots of trouble is made.
The hit off-Broadway show Potted Potter: The Unauthorized Harry Experience - A Parody by Dan and Jeff comes to Boston for a limited, three week engagement, playing today, September 17 through October 6 at The Paramount Center Mainstage (559 Washington St.). The Boston engagement follows a run at off-Broadway's Little Shubert Theatre, and a hugely successful North American tour. The press opening is set for tonight, September 17 at 7:30 pm.
