Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany, ​is an extraordinary journey into the next chapter of Harry Potter’s life and proves that magic, friendship, and courage never go out of style.

What’s the show about? Set 19 years after the events of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the story follows Harry as an overworked Ministry of Magic employee and father to three children, including his youngest son, Albus. As Albus struggles under the weight of his family’s legacy, he and Harry confront dark forces that blur the boundaries of time and challenge everything they thought they knew about the past, present, and future.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Theater Review: Harry Potter and the Broadway Spectacle
9 / 10

But the additional-and perhaps the most powerful-enchantment of this particular trip to the theater is actually on our side of the footlights. Looking around me, I saw Hogwarts house colors, black robes, and wands filling the seats. When Jamie Parker made his first entrance as Harry Potter, and when Noma Dumezweni and Paul Thornley first appeared as Hermione and Ron, the already crackling energy in the dark auditorium erupted. (Later, I heard a woman actually scream in delight when a silhouette resembling that of Severus Snape began to glide forward, back to us, on the set's big central turntable.) This isn't normal entrance applause: The audience is cheering not for celebrities but for characters. Not that the actors aren't doing cheer-worthy work. On the contrary, they're turning in effective, endearing performances, from Parker's stubborn, struggling, still emotionally stunted Harry, to Thornley's dad-jokey Ron, to Dumezweni's restrained (but comically adept) Hermione and Poppy Miller's patient, not-to-be-messed-with Ginny.

'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' on Broadway is just about the coolest thing ever
10 / 10

I can't speak for non-fans of all things 'Harry Potter' (poor souls), but for those of us who treasure J.K. Rowling's masterful series of young adult novels, the new Broadway mega-production 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Parts One and Two' is a magnificent treat - both an ingenious continuation of the Potter saga and a complete reinvention of it for an entirely new form. I sat through this two-part, five-and-a-half-hour effort alternately awestruck and giddy, much as - come to think of it - I felt first reading Rowling's books. By the end, I would have been perfectly content to watch it carry on for five-and-a-half hours more.
