Harry Potter and the Cursed Child available to license
"Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" is now available for schools to license and produce. The newly released School Edition was adapted for productions to take place on high school and secondary school stages, with rights available as early as October 2024.
The new Harry Potter adventure is based on an original story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany, and the play was written by Jack Thorne. Harry Potter’s feisty son Albus befriends none other than Scorpius Malfoy — son of Harry’s enemy Draco. The two unlikely companions use a Time-Turner to alter past events, but their actions lead to unintended consequences — which force both the new generation and familiar faces from Harry's past to unite and set things right.
Broadway Licensing Group announced its acquisition of the amateur licensing rights to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in September 2023. Since then, the company partnered with the original Cursed Child creative team to fashion the script for schools
