The Harry Potter and the Cursed Play (in two parts) is THE SEQUEL TO HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS. It takes place right after the epilogue. Albus Severus Potter is the Cursed Child (I mean who the fuck wouldn't be cursed with a name like that).
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.
First performances will be sometime in late May 2016, then official previews start June 7, and tickets can be booked till mid September for the first round. The play will be in two parts at London's Palace Theater. They'll be casting 30 characters, including Harry and Al, for the plays.
