Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: Synopsis

October 23, 2015.

Yesterday, we revealed the new artwork, prices, dates, tagline and who is the Cursed Child. Now, Pottermore, the official Harry Potter channel, has published the synopsis of the West End Play that is already catalogued as Harry Potter 8.

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.
