The magic of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Going to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child live in theaters is a magical experience for a lot of reasons but let’s talk about why this play works for fans.
When it comes to live theater, there is a beautiful about being among each other and experiencing a show together for either the first time or for this particular experience and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is a part of that.
The epilogue show that comes after Harry and his friends had been at Hogwarts for school focuses its energy on Scorpius Malfoy and Albus Severus Potter. The two are unlikely friends who turn to each other when they feel they don’t fit in as much as they’d like to and they are there for each other in ways that only they can be as the sons of Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy.
But the magic show also comes from being a part of it all. It comes from being together and knowing that we all appreciate the thing we’re watching together and getting to experience that and the fear that comes from seeing these characters we know and love but also the ones we were afraid of come to life before our eyes.
It’s a wonderful thing for fans to experience as a whole and getting to all be there together was a great part of that magic. That’s why it’s a little strange now that we can’t all be together for these things and experiences.
