A New Chapter in the Wizarding World
Set 19 years after the conclusion of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, The Cursed Child follows Harry Potter as an adult and Ministry of Magic employee, now navigating life as a parent. At the center of the story is his son, Albus Severus Potter, who struggles with the weight of a famous last name and the expectations that come with it.
What unfolds is a deeply human story about family, friendship, and identity, wrapped in time-turning twists and richly imagined stagecraft. You do not need to be a Potter expert to follow along, but longtime fans will appreciate how the play expands the Wizarding World in thoughtful and surprising ways.
