Anthony Boyle was amazing on Ordeal By Innocence. He plays creepy really good.

Quote:

Clemmett on his love of the Harry Potter series pre-Cursed Child:

“I read the books as I was growing up. I wasn't someone to queue up at midnight and wait for the next book, but I was a big fan of them like everyone else seems to be as well. I loved the films. And then once I'd seen them all and read them all, I didn't so much put them to bed, but they just weren't as big a part of my life as it is for a lot of other people.”

Quote:

Clemmett on the first performances of Cursed Child in London two years ago:

"The music started at the top of the show, and I got incredibly nervous. You go out, you say your first line, and the energy we all felt from that first preview audience in London was euphoric. We all sort of sat back into our parts and went, ‘No, actually, this is going to be all right. They seem to be with us and on this journey with us and wanting it to be good.’ And then by the end of Part Two, the response we got was like we've said so many times, it was like a rock concert. It wasn't like any theatrical experience I've ever had in my life. It was like an event. It became an event more than a piece of theater. And it celebrated what theater could be. It was amazing!”

Quote:

Boyle on connecting to Scorpius the character rather than the Malfoy name:

“I remember reading the first couple of scenes. Scorpius loses his mother quite early on in the play. There was just so much pain in him when I read it, and there was a lot of humor, but often people cover up great pain with humor. There’s something about the role that I just completely fell in love with. I just think that I knew who he was almost immediately.”

“I focus not on the idea of being a wizard, but on the idea of being this 14-year-old who’s very lost and very mixed up. As opposed to, you know, the weight of the cultural impact that Harry Potter has had, or the gravity of this. It’s all a bit much, isn’t it?”

I think that's the first TV show I've seen Anthony on and I'm not sure if he did more prior to being on Cursed Child.

He got recognized more for Cursed Child because he won an Olivier award for it.

I plan on re-reading CC soon but I'd rather re-read the HP books first.

The Lyric Theatre, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child’s home on Broadway, has been on its own incredible journey.
