Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

     I bet we all knew it was time for an eighth installment in the Harry Potter series, and J.K. Rowling knew, too. I am beyond excited for the eighth chapter of the Harry Potter series! The script book is soon to be released, written be J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany. A cool fact to know about it is that it is soon to become a play starring Jamie Parker, Noma Dumezweni and Paul Thornley. The plot of the eighth installment is about Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny all grown up nineteen years later. Harry, being an overworking employee of the Ministry of Magic, struggles with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs. Meanwhile, Harry's youngest son, Albus, also struggles with the weight of a family legacy that he never wanted. While past and present fuse ominously, Harry and Albus learn something unsettling: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places. Just the summary alone makes me curiously wonder... Is this family legacy a power? If so, if darkness comes from unexpected places, would that mean Albus becomes evil because of this family legacy? And is Harry framed for an unrealistic past? Does that make him angry and become evil as well? I have so many questions... But I guess I will have to wait until July 31, when the script book is released. The play is now in previews and officially opens July 30, 2016, at the Palace Theatre London.
