Based on an original story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne, and John Tiffany and inspired by the characters and world of Rowling's wildly successful Harry Potter book series, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Parts One and Two features a script by Thorne, direction by Tiffany, and movement by Steven Hoggett.
The work had its world premiere in July 2016 at London's Palace Theatre, where its sold-out run continues. A Broadway transfer featuring much of the original London cast opened at the Lyric Theatre in April 2018. The New York production won six 2018 Tony Awards, including Best Play. An Australian production is set to begin at Melbourne's Princess Theatre in January 2019, with a second North American company and German production set to follow.
