Harry Potter and The Cursed Child at Lyric Theatre

You might be thinking that this is just another play capitalizing on the success of a eternal saga of magic, friendship, and adolescence. But, in this case, you couldn’t be farther from the truth. Unlike musicals, which commit their plot to the stage with little imagination, Rowling, Tiffany and Thorne have reinvestigated what made the books the huge success they are in the first place – a fairytale spine and psychodrama all wrapped up in some incredibly detailed world-building – and they’ve used these findings to craft a new story. And they make it spectacular. Tiffany doesn’t hold back as his lavish production unfolds, stunning us with acrobatic wand battles, polyjuice transformations, flying Dementors, and a stunt that involves water that has everyone boggled. Don’t miss the chance to experience all of this yourself on Sunday 8th October 2023.
