Harry Potter goes Broadway!

Picking up where the seventh book in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series left off, with Harry and his magical friends as adults, the two-play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Parts One and Two opened Sunday, April 22 at the Lyric Theatre on Broadway. While this is the play’s U.S. debut, it originally ran on London’s West End, where it garnered multiple Olivier Awards.

Theater Pizzazz’s JK Clarke was backstage after opening night curtain to photograph the show’s stars, including Jamie Parker, Noma Dumezweni and Paul Thornley, among many, many others, as they began the evening’s celebrations.
