If you’re like us – distraught over the ending of the phenomenal Harry Potter series – you’re also probably one of the most ecstatic ones when the fantastic play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child was announced. It’s only reasonable that longtime Potterheads want to know what went on after Potter defeated Voldemort in the immensely moving plot of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Happening 19 years after the events of the last book, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child follows Potter’s son, Albus Severus Potter, who’s a new student at Hogwarts. Upon arriving at the school, Albus gets sorted into Slytherin. Being the son of Harry Potter, Albus feels like he has failed to live up to his father’s legacy, in the end he comes resentful. Albus befriends Scorpius Malfoy, son of Harry’s former nemesis Draco Malfoy. Both boys run into all sorts of mischief and also get their hands on the incredibly powerful but dangerous gadget, the time turner.

In this incredible story, many discoveries will be found and many new revelations learned. New and monumental characters will be making appearances plus some pop outs of fan favorites like quidditch, dementors, polyjuice potions, and tons more. It’s a four act masterpiece that has taken London’s West End by storm! Now, it’s North America’s turn to be enchanted (or cursed) as Harry Potter and the Cursed Child makes its rounds this 2025! 

“One of the most defining pop culture events of the decade” – Forbes

Premiering in London 2016, the West End productions continue to make waves and have been running for a total of eight years now. In 2018, the play finally hit Broadway and has transitioned into a one-part play. Since then, the play has traveled across the world (even as far as Tokyo) and has produced sensational productions of their own. This 2025, the play will finally embark on a North American Tour. And now, it’s not an insanely limited run where the show takes over a venue for a week. For starters, its Hollywood Pantages Theatre run will span over 18 weeks! 

Watch out for the remarkable story by Jack Thorne – J.K. Rowling calls it the eighth Harry Potter story. The production features a staggeringly talented creative team including Tony Award-winning theater director John Tiffany, and movement director Steven Hoggett. Meanwhile, the play’s incredible visuals and audio features works from Tony Award-winning designers: Christine Jones on scenic, Katrina Lindsay on costume, Neil Austin on lighting, and Gareth Fry on sound. 

Over the years, the production has brought in an amazing cast, including Laurence Olivier Award-winning actors Jamie Parker, Anthony Boyle, and Nona Dumezweni. This 2025, the North American touring cast includes John Skelly as Harry Potter, Matt Mueler as Ron Weasley, Ebony Blake as Hermione, Ben Thys as Draco Malfoy, Emett Smith as Albus Potter, Aidan Close as Scorious, and Julia Nightingale as Delphi Diggory. This stellar ensemble will bring the award-winning epic to life as it takes over the Hollywood Pantages Theatre.

Its legacy in hosting the most exciting events in the city precedes it but it also matches its incredible history with top calibre facilities – from state of the art lights and sound, stunning acoustics, and incredible ambiance. 

“Marvel of imagination” – New York Times

You’re sure to have a terrific time when you catch this stunning masterpiece on stage. Just ask the countless critics who have nothing but good words to write about Harry Potter and the Cursed Child’s various productions. Vanity Fair praised director John Tiffany for excellent executing the production with incredible ingenuity, “A great deal is the production’s stagecraft, a ceaseless spell of practical magic, both simple and intricate. Tiffany spares no indulgence as his lavish production unfolds, giving us acrobatic wand fights, polyjuice transformations, flying Dementors, and a stunt involving water that still has me boggled.”

Meanwhile, the Guardian lauded the play for its all-around goodness from the acting, storyline and special effects, “Emotional punch, rich suspense and dazzling effects make for all-round magic in the latest twist in Harry Potter’s tale.” Over at Time Out, the play was called an absolute hoot. “A joyous, big-hearted, ludicrously incident-packed and magic-heavy romp that has to stand as one of the most unrelentingly entertaining things to hit the West End,” said writer Andrezj Lukowski. The resident critic continued, “much of its power derives from the visceral, often highly emotional impact of feeling that you’re in the same room as Rowling’s iconic characters.”

“A ceaseless spell of practical magic” – Vanity Fair

Tulis McCall from the New York Theater Guide decided to finally pick up a Harry Potter book after catching this phenomenal play, “Today I’ve got magic on my mind. The Harry Potter kind.
