Harry Potter and The Cursed Child at Lyric Theatre

“The Cursed Child’s wizardry is plucky, thrilling, and well-proportioned.” says Vanity Fair. Do you ask yourself how such a magical story could be portrayed live? Well, through the production’s stagecraft - a ceaseless spell of practical magic, both simple and mind-blowing. Tiffany spares no indulgence as his extravagant production unfolds, stunning us with acrobatic wand fights, polyjuice transformations, flying Dementors, and a stunt that involves water that has everyone flabergasted. But the play isn’t “showing off” to show off. Tiffany smartly contextualizes the spectacle, figuring out how to make a live Harry Potter show feel magical in a way that’s particular to the theater. The “what are they going to do next, and how are they going to do it” of it all turns into an important part of the experience, as much of an adventure as the story itself. Don’t miss the chance to experience all of this yourself on Thursday 8th February 2024.
