The Boy Who Lived is now a father. But the past has a way of finding its way back.

It’s been nearly two decades since Harry Potter defeated Voldemort, and the wizarding world has moved on. Harry is now working at the Ministry of Magic, while his youngest son, Albus Potter, is preparing to begin his own journey at Hogwarts.

But being Harry Potter’s son comes with a weight Albus never asked for. Struggling to find his place in a family defined by legend, Albus forms an unexpected friendship with Scorpius Malfoy, the son of Draco Malfoy. Together, the two find themselves caught up in a dangerous adventure that forces them to confront the past—and the consequences of trying to change it.

With familiar faces, new friendships, old rivalries, and a mystery that reaches beyond Hogwarts, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is a magical new chapter in the Wizarding World.

The past is never quite as far away as it seems.
