Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Parts One and Two (Special Rehearsal Edition)

by J.K. Rowling, John Tiffany, and Jack Thorne

Based on an original new story by J.K. Rowling, John Tiffany and Jack Thorne, a new play by Jack Thorne, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official Harry Potter story to be presented on stage. The play will receive its world premiere in London's West End on 30th July 2016.

It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn't much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband, and father of three school-age children.

While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.

Pues qué quieren que les diga. Me encantó la serie de HP y me ha encantado este libreto. No es una novela de HP y no se lee tan fácilmente. Pero me ha dad muchas, muchas ganas de ver la obra de teatro. Supongo que de aquí a unos años pasará por Madrid.
JK Rowling hace unas pocas trampas para meter de nuevo a nuestros personajes en apuros, la primera (y más gorda) de las cuales es hacer aparecer de nuevo las máquinas del tiempo. Pero si obviamos el uso de este manido recurso de liarlo todo, la historia es entretenida. Hay unas cuantas escenas y sobre todo cambios de escena que me encantará ver en vivo. Recomendable para Potterófilos.
