When Harry Potter’s head-strong son Albus befriends the son of his fiercest rival, Draco  Malfoy, it sparks an unbelievable new journey for them all—with the power to change the past and 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 holds a record 60 major  honors, with nine Laurence Olivier Awards including Best New Play and six Tony Awards including Best Play. The international  phenomenon has cast its spell worldwide with productions currently running in London, New York, Hamburg, and Tokyo, and has  completed runs 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.  

The most successful non-musical play in Broadway history, HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD has the unique distinction of being  named by the Guinness World Records as the highest-grossing non-musical play in Broadway history with over $270 million total sales  and over 2.5 million tickets sold.
