POTTED POTTER: The Unauthorized Harry Experience - A Parody by Dan and Jeff, written and performed by two-time Olivier Award-nominated actors Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, comes to Jacksonville's Times-Union Center's Terry Theater from tonight, April 7-Sunday, April 12 for eight performances only! Tickets go on saleFriday, February 13 at 10AM through the FSCJ Artist Series, sponsored by Chase, the official presenter of the Jacksonville show.
A critic's pick by The New York Times, New York Magazine, Boston Globe, Chicago Daily Herald and Time Out London, POTTED POTTER takes on the ultimate challenge of condensing, or "potting," all seven Harry Potter books into 75 madcap minutes, aided by multiple costume changes, brilliant songs, ridiculous props, and a generous helping of Hogwarts magic. The two former BBC hosts also invite audiences to engage in a real-life game of Quidditch, played according to Clarkson and Turner's unique (and definitely not canon) set of rules.
Starvox Entertainment and Potted Productions introduced the hilarious show to North American audiences in Toronto at the Panasonic Theatre. After a record-breaking run in Toronto, POTTED POTTER headed to New York City and played a hit, off-Broadway run at The Little Shubert Theater, (the show has since returned to both cities as part of a third North American tour). This Monty Python-esque show has also sold out theatres across London, Edinburgh, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and Dubai.

Whether you camped outside a bookstore for three days awaiting the release of the Deathly Hallows, or you don't know the difference between a horcrux and a Hufflepuff, the comedy, magic, and mayhem of POTTED POTTER makes for a fun, and funny, visit to the theatre. POTTED POTTER is perfect for ages six to Dumbledore (who is very old indeed).
