The Boy Who Lived, back on Broadway. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is a breathtaking stage continuation of J.K. Rowling's cherished series that transports audiences back to the wizarding world. With mind-blowing spectacular effects, like wraithlike Dementors, time-turning illusions, and wand duels, this Broadway production elevates the narrative. The play takes place nineteen years after the last book and delves into the intricate dynamics between Harry, his son Albus, and the youngest Malfoy, Scorpius.
The Lyric Theatre is transformed by the stunning set, the brilliant choreography, and the performances of the cast members under the direction of John Tiffany. Everyone, from longtime Potter fans to those unfamiliar with Hogwarts, will be captivated by the mesmerizing blend of nostalgia, drama, and innovation. Playwright Jack Thorne superbly expands the Harry Potter world while remaining faithful to its essence in his screenplay, which expertly combines nostalgia with fresh difficulties

Adam Feldman,
Time Out NY5/5
"Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is haunted by death and pain; it is often suspenseful and sometimes downright frightening. Yet amid the cinematic tumult and dazzle of the densely action-packed plot, Thorne and Tiffany carve out quiet scenes of intimacy and tenderness"
Alexis Soloski,
The Guardian5/5
"The play’s great gift is to let us know that they boy who lived has to go on living and then make room for his sons and daughter to live their own lives, too"
Steven Suskin,
New York Stage Review4/5
"But while there is a good deal of machinery and a greater deal of millions behind it all, the specialest effect that shines through—and, truly, makes Cursed Child what it is—is high-grade theatrical imagination."

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

The show was amazing. The production and staging were ingenious, sometimes surprising, but there's something for everyone! There weren't enough songs for my friend and there was too much choreography for me 😛 The actors were spot on. The props were well controlled, the lighting subtle, and the sets impressive!
In short: INCREDIBLE 🤩

It is a very nice show, amazing for the magnificent representations of animals (I loved the giraffes), the bright colors, the nice and peculiar mix with the public. And what can I say... the great performances, the voices and songs, the musicians, in short.... all beautiful. Highly recommended. It will be a memory that will always remain in the retina.

The show was great, the lights, the sound, the performers etc. everything was perfect. Hearing Alicia Keys sounds again shows just how much her music has rocked us over the last two decades.

Excellent service.
I purchased well in advance and was very kindly advised that my reservation was perfect but that I would see the tickets when they were issued (a week before the date) and I did.
Excellent customer service and of course, excellent Chicago!

The ticketing process was easy and typical app based purchase. The show was so fun. It was a perfect blend of actual D&D, improve and Broadway spectacle. The audience interaction as a story telling driver was so enjoyable. The actor/players were engaging and exciting. Having a "team" to root for kept the interaction lively. I would love to return, just to experience another adventure.
