When Harry Potter’s wayward son Albus befriends the son of his fiercest rival, Draco Malfoy, it sets off an incredible new journey for them all – with the power to change the past and the future forever.
HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD, the first Harry Potter story to be presented on stage and the eighth story in the Harry Potter series, has sold over 10 million tickets worldwide since its world premiere in London in July 2016 and won a record 60 major awards, including nine Laurence Olivier Awards, including Best New Play, and six Tony Awards, including Best Play. The international phenomenon has worked its magic around the world, with productions currently running in London, New York, Hamburg and Tokyo, and has run in Melbourne, Toronto and San Francisco. The original two-part production in London’s West End recently celebrated its 7th anniversary, while the reimagined Broadway production celebrated its 6th anniversary.
HARRY POTTER AND THE WOUNDED CHILD, the highest-grossing non-musical play in Broadway history, has the unique honor of being named by the Guinness Book of World Records as the highest-grossing non-musical play in Broadway history, with over $270 million in total revenue and over 2.5 million tickets sold.
