Set 19 years after the Battle of Hogwarts in the Second Wizarding War, Harry Potter is the sequel to the beloved book series in the form of a play. It continues the story right where the epilogue ends.
Being Harry Potter has never been easy, and it doesn't get any better now that he is a stressed-out Ministry of Magic employee, a husband, and the parent of three school-age kids. Albus, Harry's youngest son, must contend with the burden of a family heritage he never desired as his father Harry struggles with a past that won't remain where it belongs.

It was an complete package: the actors perworfance was briliant, the stage was amazing, the special efects were impresive. After this show I have an diferent opinion regarding theatre in general. Very good job!
I had the pleasure of going on a Westminster and Buckingham Palace tour with Lucy, and I couldn't have asked for a better guide. She is an absolute pro when it comes to British royal history, and it’s clear she’s incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about the royal family and its rich legacy. Her deep love for the subject really brought the landmarks to life—every fact and anecdote felt so personal and captivating. If you’re looking for a tour guide who can offer an authentic, detailed, and entertaining experience about Britain's royal life, Lucy is absolutely the one to go for. Highly recommend!
I have no words. I waited 5 years and it was really worth it. The cast is extraordinary and very up to date with the empathy of the fictional characters. The special effects... incredible! I highly recommend this experience to all big fans of the magical world of Harry Potter!
A huge thank you to everyone who made this play possible. The cast was unbelievable, the sets, the staging, you name it. Everything was just crazy! I really had an unforgettable time, it was wonderful. And the goodies in the store 😍🙏🏻

For true Harry Potter fans, the play is a highlight. I have seen this play in Hamburg and London, I have to admit that Hamburg manages to make this event big. London can take a leaf out of its book. Nevertheless, it was good.
