BOOM! And now we go back to Cursed Child. We're busy these days, Potterheads.

First off, rumors of a Broadway and Toronto show for next summer:

Quote:
Rumors are abound that Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, parts I and II, could be headed to Broadway as early as next summer, according to a new report.

Reportedly, the two-part installment of Harry Potter's eighth story may come to the Toronto, Canada theater scene before heading to Broadway in the 'next season', which in theater terms would run from May 2017-May 2018.

There is currently no confirmation of the production moving beyond its London debut, though many involved, including author J.K. Rowling, are hopeful that it tours worldwide. Several of the lead actors of the London plays, including Noma Dumezweni (Hermione Granger) and Sam Clemmett (Albus Potter) admitted that their contracts run through next May.

5 days!

So excited to hear it might come to Toronto first before Broadway! Many shows have done that so its not surprising. I'm sure it will sell out in record time.

You and me both and nothing will ever convince me Rowling had this up her sleeve all along, no matter how much some fans now create theories how it could fit within the book series.

I don't care if she came up with it during the play writing conception or back 20 years ago. Her books have all kinds of wackadoodle stuff in the premises that seem inconceivable. As long as she stays true to her characters (which by all accounts she has), I'll continue to support it.


The raves are pretty much unanimous! All the critics loved it. Now its going to be even harder to get tickets. Like Hamilton hard. GAHHHHH!

I know this is sort of lame but I'm so glad Ginny's wardrobe has improved from the character promo still. I thought Ginny looked great in cast, apart from the old lady clothes she was wearing which didn't fit with her character.
