"I really enjoyed the play. I didn’t read anything about it so I had no expectations. Definitely recommend it for Harry Potter fans. The one thing I didn’t care for was how dark the stage was. I know you needed it that way but made it a little difficult to watch. "

"I thought it was amazing, people that bring their kids should make sure they have watched the Harry Potter’s so that they understand what’s going on. But the special effects and the choreography are absolutely amazing."

"I loved that it wasn’t a remake of the movie but another storyline later in Time with enough of the references from the original Harry Potter story…The acting was great and the special effects out of this world!!"

"Incredible production, you can feel the magic. Not sure if the time works for little children, may be too long considering it's not a musical. For real potterheads is a must!"

"Since it is a broadway show, I was not sure what to expect. I knew it was a play and was hoping they would not turn it into a musical song and dance type of show. Not only did I get my wish, but so much more. The reviews that use the word magical are all true…. Not just in the sense of classic magic tricks, brilliant and mind boggling, but also in the sense of fantastical, dreamy and enchanting. So much thought, preparation, practice and expertise has been put into each scene… the costumes, the set, the props, all are magical. The cast is fantastic as is all the back stage staff who helps pull off this truly wondrous and mesmerizing performance. Even if you do not know anything about the storyline, as one member in our party did, you are transported and delighted by the show. Cannot recommend enough. One of the best shows I have ever seen anywhere."

"Harry Potter on Broadway is one of THE masterpieces of this decade, packed with the most creative drinks and snacks @ Lyric Theater. The break in the middle actually makes the show more enjoyable. This was my second time and I can't recommend it enough. The actors are phenomenal and so passionate in beinfi these beloved characters to life. I'll be back a third time soon enough. It feels like Homecoming everytime I watch the show on Broadway especially growing up with Harry Potter. Loved it so much. And as the cool kids say - Mischief Managed 🪄"

"There was heavy use of a fog machine, which took some adjustment. That said, I’ve seen the longer form show in London and appreciated the single show format. The acting was top notch, the choreography was well-done and I enjoyed everything from start to finish. "
