Forget any worries that Harry Potter's leap to the stage would be stuffy, artsy, or light on magic. Rest easy, muggles, because Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is a blast! This joyous, big-hearted play is packed with hilarious moments, outrageous events, and enough magic to rival Diagon Alley. Writer Jack Thorne, director John Tiffany, and a dream team have created a truly unforgettable experience. While the two-part, five-hour show might seem long, it's a forgivable indulgence. Cursed Child is a love letter to Potter fans, drawing its power from the sheer thrill of seeing these iconic characters come alive right before your eyes.

Susannah Clapp,
The Guardian4/5
“I have until now been resistant to the Hogwarts background: too much exposed to boarding-school capers on the page and in political life. Thorne’s sequel slithered me round to seeing it as one version of the bewildering, bullying, beguiling nature of institutions."
Andrzej Lukowski,
Time Out4/5
"Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is 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."
Dominic Cavendish,
The Telegraph5/5
“British theatre hasn't known anything like it for decades and I haven't seen anything directly comparable in all my reviewing days."

Phantom of the Opera

Primera vez que puedo ver en vivo este amado clásico, la interpretación de todos los actores es impecable. Me encantó especialmente la dulzura de Anna Zavelson al interpretar a Christine Daaé. Espero tener la oportunidad de volver a ver una vez más la obra !!

It is an unforgettable experience.
The cast delivered a realistic atmosphere, making you feeling like you are part of the story.
The chandelier is a statement on it's own.
It's worth spending a penny and have a good seat. We took the Royal Cirle Row B seat 20/21. It is central and you can view all the stage.

The performance was top notch! The acting, the singing and dancing, the whole package carried us along even with a slightly different storyline. The audience really flowed with the performance, we were all clapping and cheering several times during the show. Very well coordinated performance. Although my seat was far from the stage, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

It exceeded our expectations & became one of our most favorite memories from our trip to London. The music, the cast, everything was perfection. I even noticed my husband with tears streaming down his face a few times. It was an unforgettable night! Stalls Row G 31-32

Witness for the Prosecution
Gary Humphries
This was a sparkling example of the British theatrical tradition. Superb performances were matched by a wonderful setting; the old London County Council chamber made an excellent courtroom. I loved how 12 patrons became the trial jurors, playing their impromptu roles convincingly.

The Lyric Theatre was gorgeous and was easily to navigate. The lighting was amazing and the stage layout was great from my seat! The singing was amazing along with the dancing and acoustics.
