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 magical saga of magic, friendship, and adolescence. But, in this case, you couldn’t be farther from the truth. Unlike musicals, which commit their material to the stage with no imagination, Rowling, Tiffany and Thorne have deeply explored 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 their findings to craft a new story. And they make it spectacular. Tiffany spares no indulgence as his lush production unfolds, stunning us with acrobatic wand battles, polyjuice transformations, flying Dementors, and a stunt involving water that has everyone flabergasted. Don’t miss the chance to experience all of this yourself on Tuesday 23rd April 2024.
