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 material to the stage with no imagination, Rowling, Tiffany and Thorne have reinvestigated what made the books the huge success they are in the first place – a magical spine and psychodrama all cloaked in some truly magical 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, giving us acrobatic wand fights, polyjuice transformations, flying Dementors, and a stunt that involves water that has everyone flabergasted. Don’t miss the chance to experience all of this yourself on Friday 8th March 2024.
