The latest expansion of the Harry Potter universe is finally with us in the form of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

The play follows on directly from the epilogue of the final Potter book, Deathly Hallows, with a now 37 year old Harry seeing off his children at King’s Cross - a station that sits out of the corner of my eye from my vantage point at Guardian Towers - for a new term at Hogwarts, that famed school of witchcraft and wizardry.

Our theatre critic Michael Billington reviewed - and enjoyed - the play from a position of “benign semi-ignorance”; we have a feeling that we may have more experienced Potter-watchers among our regular readers.

If you’ve been lucky enough to see the play, let us know what you thought of it by filling out the form below. We’ll stick together a readers’ article featuring some of your responses.
