"This play was magical and it made me very nostalgic. The illusions on stage were so interesting. Every time one of my favourite characters came on stage we got so excited! I loved the chemistry between Ron and Hermione. Draco Malfoy was chef’s kiss. The Dementors were incredible! The choreography with the moving stair cases was so well done. The story line was very moving. I would go back to see this play given the chance."

"This was better than I expected, certainly a must on Broadway. If you saw the original movies, it is very easy to follow, the performers are amazing! I would highly recommend going to see this, the dementors were really cool! "

"I have been wanting to see this show for YEARS and finally had the opportunity while on a trip to NYC. It was hands down the most entertaining and magical show! The actors were INCREDIBLE (special shout out to the actor that played Scorpius!). We had great seats close to the front and I still couldn't figure out how they were able to pull off the magic that took place! I would see this show once a week if I could! My mom had not read any of the books and I gave her a short overview before the show and even she thought it was the best show we saw this week! 100000000% recommend, especially for those of us Muggles who wish they received their letter to Hogwarts! <3"

"The play was amazing. We have waited 5 years to see it and it was worth the wait. The acting, special effects, and props were wonderful. Would be scary to real young children. Children that can read the books would understand the scary parts. "

"This play is excellent. The story line is well written. You can understand the plot without knowing too much of the movies/books and the actors are phenomenal. It was also incredible to see all the special effects that they used. It is definitely a must see. "

"I have now seen this twice and the show is truly magical. You feel entirely immersed in the world of Harry Potter. The acting is top notch and engrossing. Its an experience that can’t be duplicated and well worth the time and money you spend to sit in this world for a few hours."

"My spouse and I attended the performance and were seated in the third row. However, after observing the venue, I believe that the show would be equally enjoyable from any seat. It was a unique blend of a magic show and a play, which I found to be highly entertaining."

"I loved everything about this! It was my first time seeing a play and while I learned a lot about what I would do differently next time, that only added to it! The actors were great, the sound quality was perfect! (I sat in the balcony and didn’t miss a thing). The theater is GORGEOUS!! I’m so happy I got to experience this! I’m just sad I didn’t get any merch, but that’s my fault. I’m already thinking about when I can come back and see it again. "

"The special effects were incredible!!!! It was like watching a magic show - and it was.... The magic was truly magical. WELL DONE!!! My grandson and I were on the edge of our seats. The acting was dynamic and incredibly energetic. The Lyric Theater is lovely. Finally, a ladies restroom that is big enough so the line doesn't trail down the hall. The butterbeer was really tasty. We were sitting in the first row of the balcony. My only suggestion is the improvement of the sound. It was difficult to hear all of the lines - perhaps the English accents and the acoustics made the words a bit difficult to hear. The play is long, so theater goers to this performance should be prepared. BRAVO!"
