The Curtain Rises On HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD Cast
You'll recall that the next installment of the Harry Potter saga, Harry Potter And The Cursed Child, is neither a book nor a movie, but a stage show set to premiere on London's West End this summer (if you're just tuning in, you can read more about this here).
With just a week to go before the show's first public preview, the play's official Twitter account has just released the first photos of stars Jamie Parker, Sam Clemmett, and Poppy Miller as Harry, Albus, and Ginny Potter. They definitely look the part!

According to that last Tweet, the first public preview of Harry Potter And The Cursed Child goes down in one week, which means we'll probably start hearing if it's any good shortly thereafter (read: probably as it's being performed on stage). Potter fans who can't afford tickets or the trip overseas are encouraged to check out the script book, which you can acquire via the Amazon link below.
