- will be called Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

- written by J.K. Rowling herself

- official synopsis reads:

"It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn't much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children,"

"While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places."

I recall reading something about this months ago but I can't recall exactly what I read and here is the news anyways.

He should siriusly reconsider the name of his son.

I'd read it if it was a book. Even if I did get the chance to watch the play, I probably wouldn't.

I love plays. Bring it on.

Odd that it isn't a book. I'm sure it will come out in written format sooner or later, but what was the motivation to turn it into a play, of all things?

The British Ministry of Magic seemingly didn't invent the 30-hour work week yet.

Musicals are better than plays.

I'm fine with it not being a book or a movie, but if you're going to make it a play you might as well make it a show/miniseries. Can you imagine seeing HP universe stories on TV? That kind of stuff is so popular right now that I'm surprised it hasn't happened already. (Though that's just a testament to her protection of the property.)
