It’s Opening Night... again! Yes, after a period off-stage during the Covid 19 lockdowns in the UK, the award-winning play is returning to London.

The eighth Harry Potter story will continue in London within its two-part structure (in the North American productions, the play is being reimagined as a one-part experience) and is celebrating its big return with gorgeous new poster artwork. You can learn all about the artwork’s evolution here.
