Expand your world of the beloved magical world from the original story of Harry Potter. This play takes us years into the future when Harry is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic and his son, Albus, has just started schooling at Hogwarts. Played by Jamie Ballard, we see Harry Potter in a new light as an adult, a husband, and the father of three children. How long does the legend of The Chosen One follow Harry, and is it inherited by his children too?
The story
Watch Harry Potter and the Cursed Child for its exploration of family, the weight of nostalgia, and the uncanny fusion of past and present. Revisit Hogwarts with Albus Potter and ruminate on the stories of where it all started. The play holds the theater record for the most awarded West End End plays in the history of Olivier Awards. A must-watch for all Harry Potter fans and lovers of its books and films alike, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child tickets are sure to sell out soon!

The play is an exhilarating treat for Harry Potter fans. The production is imaginative, dynamic, fast-paced and tight. The special effects are wonderdul - effective, beautifully blended with the compelling story-telling, and adding just the right pinch of Harry Potter magic. Each act ends on a breathtaking cliff edge. We did not feel the (nearly) 6 hours pass and wanted more. A true credit to the astonishing J.K. Rowling and the creative team behind the production. 'All the hype' is well deserved.
