Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in New York City

After selling out within days at London’s Palace Theatre and winning a record-breaking nine Olivier Awards including Best New Play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child transferred to Broadway in 2018, where it picked up six Tony Awards. A sequel to the seventh book, the play reunited audiences with Harry and his friends 19 years later.

The play returns to Harry as a husband and father of three with an overworked job at the Ministry of Magic. Meanwhile, his youngest son Albus Severus is about to start at Hogwarts amidst fears of being Sorted into Slytherin and disappointing his family. As father and son struggle under the weight of legacy and obligation, ominous ghosts of the past emerge and both come to learn that sometimes, darkness comes from the most unexpected places.

The current Broadway cast includes Steve Haggard as Harry Potter, Joel Meyers as Albus Potter, David Abeles as Ron Weasley, Jenny Jules as Hermione Granger, Angela Reed as Ginny Potter, Erik C. Peterson as Scorpius Malfoy and Maya Olivia Thomas as Rose Granger-Weasley.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is directed by John Tiffany, whose prolific career includes the multi-award winning Once on the West End and Broadway. The play has been developed by scriptwriter Jack Thorne (Let the Right One In) from an original story he penned with Tiffany and J.K Rowling. Bringing the show to life are illusions and magic by Jamie Harrison (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), set design by Christie Jones and an original score by Imogen Heap.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the Lyric Theatre close to Times Square is one of the most popular shows on Broadway, and with a campaign to #KeepTheSecret, audiences are sure to have an unexpected and utterly magical time watching a brand-new wizarding adventure.

Certainly a treat for HP fans, but it seemed like the story was greatly compressed to fit into the given time - especially at the beginning. It felt very rushed to set up the main part of the story. The special effects were a visual treat, no doubt. Read more
