Being a HP fan since 2001, it was a great pleasure to me that during my London trip I could see this play. The Theatre itself has its great atmosphere. Though my English is not perfect, actors talked clearly and I could understand fast everything. This is an unforgettable memory. Cheers from Budapest 😊🤗🥰

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the Palace Theatre in London is one not to be missed. From the moment the lights dim, the production pulls you straight into the wizarding world with a level of craftsmanship that feels genuinely spellbinding. The actors were absolutely on point, delivering performances that were sharp, heartfelt, and full of energy. Every character felt alive, and the chemistry on stage made the story even more gripping. The effects were synced to perfection, creating seamless transitions that made the magic feel real. And the special effects were truly mind‑blowing, the kind that make the entire audience gasp. The whole experience into something unforgettable. A show I would gladly watch again and again. A superb production from start to finish!

This performance was incredible. It's been a very long time since I've been to the theatre and I am obsessed with Harry Potter. I was fortunate enough to grow up in a time where I got to wait for the books to be released. So to be able to be here and fly over from Sydney to London to watch Harry Potter and the first dream come true. It was everything that I could've wanted even more whilst I own the book/screenplay I've never read it so it was such a beautiful surprise to not know the story and be able to see it live

Tengo a specificare che l'esperienza qui riportata è prettamente personale e legata al posto scelto E25 (allego la foto). La spettacolo da questa posizione risulta ugualmente godibile, tranne in alcune sequenze in cui gli attori sono molto vicini alla platea. Protagonisti molto bravi, effetti speciali particolari, la storia purtroppo non mi hai mai entusiasmato. All'esperienza in generale attribuisco 4 stelle perché il caldo era quasi asfissiante. Comprendo la sfortuna di essere capitato nel giugno più caldo di sempre a Londra, ma faccio fatica a credere che questa caloria non si verifichi anche in condionzi di caldo normale.

From the moment you walk in, the atmoshphere was amazing. The entry way did get al ittle congested before people figured out they could go to the other floors. However, the moody lighting in just the lobby set the stage. The technical porduction was astounding. The lighting, illusions, staging, choreogrpahy, set, everything was top tier. Before the shows, the bar area gave a great place to sit and not be too overstimulated. I am all ready wanting to go back!

Really loved the perfomance ! The story itself isn't my favorite part, but the visual effects and the actors performance ! it's totally worth seeing, firmly recommend (though careful while choosing seats on the last balcony we had some difficulty seeing everything)
