Harry Potter and the Cursed Child West End first look character images revealed
By Callum Gunn
First look character images of the West End’s version of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child have been revealed for all of us to see.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is killing it on Broadway right now. In fact, the production has been so well and getting so much attention, that we have almost forgotten that Cursed Child is still performing at the West End.
Cursed Child has been performing at the Palace Theatre ever since it debuted back in 2016 and it is still going strong to this day. However, with the production moving to Broadway, and a large part of the original cast making the trip as well, we have had new actors and actresses stepping into some pretty big shows.
