About Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child picks up the story years after the books, following Harry Potter and his son Albus. The play runs at the Lyric Theatre on West 43rd Street, which was renovated before the April 2018 opening, moving its main entrance from 42nd Street to 43rd Street and decorating the house with Harry Potter motifs. Since late 2024 the show has played in a shorter version of just under three hours.
