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 re-created live? Well, through the show’s stagecraft - an endless spell of practical magic, both simple and mind-blowing. 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. But the play isn’t “showing off” to show off. Tiffany smartly puts the spectacle in context, 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 becomes 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 2nd May 2024.
