Harry Potter and the cursed child
I have been yearning to see this play ever since it came out. It was just a matter of logistics on going to New York or San Francisco to watch the 2 parts show. Well I never made it to NYC or SF. Then finally the production decided to bring it to LA. And it was the one part condensed revised version too! So I would not miss this opportunity and got me a ticket along with my 2 friends.
The show would be a much better movie I say. (If JK Rowling acquiesce to it). Why? Well the fast pace changes of scenes can be confusing if one has not read the book. The magic CGI effects would be much more visually thrilling too as a movie. Although it was amusing enough to see magic being portrayed on stage, it just does not compare the what movie magic can do. The english accent of the actors were not convincing or authentic enough to my ears. And I feel the actor play Scopius Malfoy was OA (over acting). So that was distracting. All in all it was not a disappointing show for me. I would give it a 3 stars out of 5.
