Jack Thorne wrote the script based on a story by Thorne, director John Tiffany, and Potter mastermind J.K. Rowling, and it picks up 19 years after the event of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, as a now-adult Harry Potter (Jamie Parker) prepares to send his son Albus (Sam Clemmett) off to Hogwarts. After the play, Goldberg shared her rave review on Twitter, writing, “The show is off the hook.” Read EW’s review of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child here.
