Must see for Harry Potter fans

"The show was amazing and the special effects were truly magical. A great show for all ages although it might be a little scary for young children. "

Broadway.com Customer on Apr 6, 2025

Fun!

"This was definitely magical and a lot better than I thought it was going to be. You felt immersed into the show and it was absolutely hilarious"

Gabby H from San Antonio on Apr 6, 2025

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!"

One of the best plays I’ve ever seen

CHRISTINE D from Windermere on Apr 2, 2025

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. "

Amanda B from Kimberly on Apr 2, 2025

Beyond Expectations

"I am a life long HP fan so I was expecting to enjoy this but the production went way beyond my expections. You could enjoy this show just for the special effects and staging but if you are familiar with the stories you will get so much more out of it. In fact, to follow the story line you need to have read/watched everything through The Goblet of Fire. The actors did a wonderful job Even the slightest of their movements have been choreographed …. Diggery’s facial and body ticks, all the swishing robes during transitions. I was worried it would seem too long with a 2.5 hour run time but I was mesmerized and time flew by just like with a time turner. Highly recommend this show. My only caveauts are that is difficult at times to understand the dialog when the characters rush through it with fake British accents. I would not bring small children or children that can’t sit still or frighten easily. I was in the 4 th row and the special effects were not ruined by being so close but might be appreciated more sitting a bit further back center. "

Better than expected!

"I didn’t know much of the story and thought it would be a failed sequel from the original story, but I was surprised. The acting was very good, the story was engaging and the visual effects were a show apart! "

Broadway.com Customer on Mar 28, 2025

Wonderful show!

"We loved every scene of the show! The acting was fantastic, and the scripts were genuinely funny."

Lynn A from ANN ARBOR on Mar 28, 2025

Amazing special effects!

" Very in line with the book. Helps to have read it to keep up/follow along. Outstanding special effects! My kids (14, 12) loved it. I thought it was a musical, so it took me awhile to adjust to the fact that it was not! But a very well done performance. "

Renee T from Traverse City on Mar 26, 2025

Incredible!!!!

"If you’re a HP fan, this is a must see!! If you’re not, this is a must see!! A++++!"

Keisha S from Rogers on Mar 26, 2025

Amazing! Amazing! Amazing

"Was an incredible experience including the magic and effects. You need to have a knowledge of previous Harry Potter movies and of the next generation to follow the play."

Von V from Knoxville on Mar 24, 2025

Excellent performance with dazzling effects!

"My wife and I took our nine-year-old son to see this performance. He absolutely loved it! Special effects and transitions were amazing! We would highly recommend others seeing it."

Matt N from Eagle Mountain on Mar 23, 2025

Absolutely magical

"What an absolutely amazing show! My son and I just finished reading the Harry Potter books and had to come see this show. It did not disappoint. Not only was the story fantastic but the performances, magic and lighting was insane. I’ve never seen such a show before that I truly thought I was in the wizarding world. Even my husband who hasn’t read or watched the Harry Potter movies thought it was one of the best shows he has ever seen! "

Lindsey W from Winter Park on Mar 23, 2025

AMAZING SHOW!

"I’ve recently gotten into harry potter, so when we had a trip planned to NYC we decided to go to this show. I went in without knowing anything about it, but WOW, the whole show was fantastic. I laughed, I cried, I smiled. It also felt immersive with the dementors & lights & magic tricks. Everything from the books/movies felt woven into the play so beautifully. However, I did sit next to a family that had 3 kids under 10 years old. They kept saying “I don’t get what’s happening” to their mom. With the dementors, the one child started to cry. Therefore, I’d say if you are a kid not into harry potter- or a person who has never seen the movies/read the books- it may be a bit confusing. Final Note: Besides the play being the highlight of the trip, the butter-beer at the concession stand was so fun… and so good. "

Rachel L from Sarasota on Mar 21, 2025

MAGICAL (Pun intended)

"Wow, what an experience for my 1st broadway show. Highly recommend, and also recommend getting their early to experience the lobby area. I'm a big Harry Potter fan but had no idea about the plot of this play and would say that it made the experience more fun not knowing what was in store. Would also recommend making sure to explore the lobby at the intermission as well for a cool surprise."

Nate H from San Diego on Mar 17, 2025

Stunning!!!

"Just amazing!!! The acting was superb, effects were mind blowing and the funny banter added in was perfect!!! Had a young child yell "what!" To something that was said by professor McGonagall, and whole cast reacted wonderfully and played it off really well!!!!!"

Broadway.com Customer on Mar 17, 2025

Amazing show

"If you are a Harry Potter fan you will love this play! Special effects are outstanding. Family friendly outing on Broadway "

Broadway.com Customer on Mar 16, 2025

Great show

"Even though I’m a die hard HP fan and am not really impressed with the story itself, the special effects alone make this show worth it! It felt like real magic. Several times it had us gasping in awe"

Rebecca N from Maryville on Mar 13, 2025

Great show

"I thought the special effects were amazing! I liked the story line but at times it was hard to hear the actors. It was great for Harry Potter fans. I would suggest children over 10 that are not easily frightened."
