PART ONE

ACT ONE

SCENE ONE. KING'S CROSS

Busy and crowded station full of people trying to get somewhere. Amid the hustle and bustle, two huge cages rattle on top of two carts. They are being pushed by two boys, James Potter and Albus Potter. Their mother, Ginny, follows. Thirty-seven-year-old Harry holds his daughter Lily on his shoulders.

ALBUS: Dad. He keeps saying it.

HARRY: James, stop it.

JAMES: I just said he might end up in Slytherin. And he can... (Under the gaze of his father.) OK.

ALBUS (looks at his mother): You will write to me, won't you?

GINNY: Every day, if you want.

ALBUS: No. Not every day. James says most receive letters from home about once a month. I don't want...

HARRY: Last year we wrote to your brother three times a week.

ALBUS: What? James!

Albus looks at James accusingly.

GINNY: Yes. You probably won't want to believe everything he tells you about Hogwarts. Your brother really likes to joke.

JAMES (with a grin): Please, can we go now?

Albus looks at his father, then at his mother.

GINNY: All you have to do is go straight between platforms nine and ten.

LILY: I'm so worried.

HARRY: Don't stop and don't worry about crashing, that's very important. It's better to run away if you're nervous.

ALBUS: I'm ready.

Harry and Lily place their hands on Albus's cart... Ginny takes James' cart and the whole family struggles to get over the barrier.

SCENE TWO. PLATFORM NINE AND THREE-QUARTERS

The platform is covered in thick white steam emanating from the Hogwarts Express.

It is very crowded... but instead of people in formal suits, going about their business, it is filled with wizards and witches in robes, trying to say goodbye to their beloved offspring.

ALBUS: There she is.

LILY: Wow!

ALBUS: Platform nine and three quarters.

LILY: Where are they? They are here? Maybe they didn't arrive?

Harry points to Ron, Hermione and their daughter Rose. Lily quickly runs towards them.

Uncle Ron. Uncle Ron!!!

Ron turns to them as Lily runs towards him. He grabs her in his arms.

RON: Isn't this my favorite Potter?

LILY: Do you have new focus?

RON: Have you ever heard of the Magical Breathing Hoarse?

Certified Nose Kidnapping from Mr. Weasley?

ROSE: Mom! Dad wants to show this disgusting trick again.

HERMIONE: You say disgusting, someone says wonderful, but I say

Somewhere in the middle.

RON: Wait. Let me just chew this... air for a bit. Now forgive me if I smell a little like garlic...

He blows on her face. Lily giggles.

LILY: You smell like oatmeal.

RON: Bing. Bang. Boeing. Young lady, get ready to no longer be able to smell...

He pulls her nose.

LILY: Where's my nose?

RON: Ta-dam!

His hand is empty.

LILY: This is stupid.

ALBUS: Everyone's staring at us again.

RON: It's all because of me! I'm extremely famous. My nose tricks are legendary.

HERMIONE: Yes, that's something.

HARRY: Did you park properly?

RON: Yes. Hermione didn't believe I could pass the Muggle driving test, did she? She thought I would have to cast a Confundus Charm on the examiner.

HERMIONE: I didn’t even think of anything like that, I was absolutely sure of you.

ROSE: And I'm absolutely sure that he actually cast a Confundus Charm on the examiner.

ALBUS: Dad...

Albus grabs Harry's robes. Harry looks down.

Do you think... what if... what if I end up in Slytherin...

HARRY: What's wrong with that?

ALBUS: Slytherin is a house of snakes, a house of Dark magic... And not at all a house of brave wizards.

HARRY: Albus Severus, you were named after two Headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them was a Slytherin and he was probably one of the bravest people I have ever met.

Act one

Scene one

The station is full of people; Everyone is busy, in a hurry to get somewhere. Among the chaos are two loaded carts, each with a large birdcage rattling on top. The carts are being pulled by two boys, one by JAMES POTTER, the other by ALBUS POTTER. Following them is their mother GINNY. HARRY, a thirty-seven-year-old man, carries his daughter LILY on his shoulder.

Dad. Him again.

James, calm down already.

I just said that he can get into Slytherin... but how can he... (fading under his father’s angry gaze) ... that’s it, I’m silent.

ALBUS (mother)

Will you write to me? Will you?

Every day, if you want.

No. No. Not every day. James says most people receive letters from home once a month. I don't want...

Last year we wrote to your brother three times a week.

What? James!

Yes. Don't believe everything he says about Hogwarts. He's a big joker, your brother.

JAMES (smirking)

Can we please go now?

You just need to go straight into the wall between platforms nine and ten.

Hello everyone! The stories about Harry Potter, about the boy who lived, shocked me from the first pages of the first book and helped me fall in love with literature back in the day. early childhood. These books are still some of my favorite books, and for this many thanks to J. Rowling.
I always believed that there would only be seven of them and this is correct, since the story ended, a happy ending, everyone is happy, etc. When I found out about book 8, especially since Rowling co-authored it, it shocked me a little and confused me, but still curiosity got the better of me! It was also interesting to know about fantastic beasts, but there is no doubt good job. It's very interesting because, although we're talking about about a world in which a boy who survived will appear in the future, in real life a completely different story is told, which only marginally affects Dumbledore and Grindelwald. Only those who have read the books, especially the latest ones, can approximately accurately determine what time we are talking about)
If he’s talking about the book “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” itself, then I wouldn’t say that the book is anything but, rather, it’s simply not finished. I really liked the idea itself, I read the book in one sitting and I don’t regret the time I spent. Minus: it is written in the form of a play, which is not entirely convenient, but this is not even a minus, but that there are attributions, for example: The role of little Hermione is played by Rose. Or someone is standing behind the stage. What is this for? This could be done as a footnote. I'm not going to stage a play, I want to enjoy reading the book.
If you break the book into parts: book 8 doesn’t start the way book 7 ended, the first 3 years passed in the first 10-20 pages. The children are all mentioned in passing, except for Rose (or Rose, which is correct is also not clear), Scorpius and Albus. Harry turned out to be some kind of tyrant, Ron, it seemed to me, was a little stupid, he was not like that.
Second part: interesting point, when all the main events take place, I really liked the idea, but something was missing. In my opinion, if it were written in ordinary text, it would be more descriptions and it would be more interesting. How they found the time turner is not at all clear to me, how they were overwhelmed with books, Albus disappeared and appeared. Nothing is clear, I re-read the moment twice, I understood it in passing. There is not enough description, mostly dialogues, well, as it should be in a play, but this is fantasy, everything should revolve around the description! Lots of surprises interesting discoveries, but everything is also somehow fast, you don’t have time to enjoy and experience this moment with the heroes. I repeat, the main part is very interesting, but without a description it will not be revealed as desired!
And finally the ending: Everything is crumpled and fast. Now we have already completed 4 years and the flywheel has been returned and everything is fine in the family and father and son seem to be starting to understand each other and THE END. Also literally 10 pages long. To be honest, I was even upset. Something was missing.
As for the general opinion about the book, then, of course, 7 out of 10. This is not the same Harry Potter. As it is written in the book about his son: "POLLY CHAMPAN: Oh, Merlin's beard, how humiliating! He's not really like his father, you see?" Quote from the book.
I really love Harry Potter. These are the books of my childhood. I still love to reread and rewatch films, but not this book. There is simply no desire to read it a second time.
PS: I hope they don’t plan to make a film. It will be just something! Although, it seems to me that even if they film, it will probably be their beloved cast I won't see it anymore(
