Woke First of all, the seats are very hard and uncomfortable so seating 2x 2+ hours is not pleasant. Now the storyline is Ok and mostly fit the Harry Potter theme of the movies. Only digression is the introduction of gay characters, which turn this family adventure into a woke odyssey.

Fantasticly superb The show was just simply amazing. The actors played their parts incredibly similar to the movie cast but yet with their own individual twist. I so enjoyed the storyline and plot as I didn’t know the story before hand. The stage and lighting were amazing and I loved how it was arranged in two parts which made it a whole day and night to remember. It is a must see!!!

Especially great if you’re already Harry Potter fan I loved the show but my husband who isn’t as big a fan as I am had trouble following the plot.

Must see If you enjoy Harry Potter you have to see this, the acting, the effects, the story all amazing 🤩

Amazing This went way beyond what I was expecting. The staging is outstretched often leaving us open mouthed. We loved the story, the actors commitment to it and the staging.
We loved both parts, which it needs to be to tell the story well. I would highly recommend to anyone with an idea of the HP story. Best West End show that I have been to.

Nice idea It's a good show, I think, my main complaint is the seating and that's not their fault, I couldn't work out if the pausing, stuttery delivery if hermione was intentional for the character or just not great delivery but she's an olivier award winning actress so my guess is it was just her impersonation of Emma Watson.
I enjoyed the limited amount I saw but again, not the productions fault.
