What is a complete revelation, and was by no means assured, is the sheer scope and integrity of the accomplished storytelling the authors and entire creative team bring to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. ... My wager is that the lucky young ones who see these plays will be hooked on the theater for life. What could be better than that?
