Magical!
"Having recently read the play in book form, I couldn't imagine how they could possibly create the many unique scene changes, however I continued to be amazed throughout the performance at how magically seamless they happened. I think to truly grasp the storyline and characters, you would need to have read all of the books in the Harry Potter series. Reading the play ahead of time was helpful, but not necessary. I would see it again!"

Best show i've ever seen
"It was amazing, we came from the UK so it was the only show we chose to see when we were here visiting and it was worth every penny! The seats were great we had a great view, and the show well, it was amazing, so clever, loved all of the special effects, the lighting effects were something we've never seen before. Can't wait for it to come on tour in the UK, it's something I can't wait to see again!!"

It’s a MaGiC show!
"My daughter and I are HUGE HP fans. We have the entire village, a patronus, hedwig, and snitch out all year. We have a HP Xmas tree theme. Etc. My daughter was capitivated by the show, as was I. Even my husband enjoyed it. He who has never read the books but has watched most of the movies. Loved the polyjuice potion changes and graffitti scenes most! Can’t miss!!!"

A great play with amazing effects
"A great trip to the theatre for our two boys (9 and 11) who were amazed by the effects and found the time passed incredibly quickly. A slightly confusing story initially if they’re not familiar with the accompanying book but the material and effects carried them through to having a great time. Extremely expensive snacks though!"

Action packed from beginning to the end
"I had no idea what the show was going to be about, and that was on purpose. I didn’t want any spoilers. It was amazing from the beginning to the end. The stunts, the story, the acting, and some of the special effects were so cool to see. I’ve been to many shows in my life, and this one will never be forgotten. "
