19 Years Later: A Surprisingly Dark Satire of Magic

I didn't think I could like Harry Potter more than I already did! 19 years later was the cool sequel I always wanted, it was funny but dark and really exciting and the acting was on point from all the characters... full review

As we left, our conclusion was that this was a pretty good piece of fan fiction, well performed. If you are into, or at least familiar with, the HP-universe (and I don’t mean the printer), it is well worth seeing.... full review

Really great show! Great story about the Harry Potter characters and their kids fighting the dark forces 19 years later. The story was absorbing and the fight scenes were fun to watch. Wonderful performances by the cast doing quirky characters and British accents. Very smooth, well orchestrated performance even though there were a large number of scenes and costume changes. A must see show for Harry Potter fans, but a fun show for all theater fans.... full review

I loved this show!!! The acting was impressive, costumes on target, and the story was: entertaining, hilarious, mysterious, surprising, touching... and I had to wipe away tears at the end of the show. Special effects with lighting, wands that lit up, and music all gave the show an authentic quality. I highly recommend “19 Years Later” if you are a Harry Potter fan. I also recommend it if you are not a HP fan... just watch the first HP movie and you will be fine. ... full review

Honestly, so impressed. I love Harry Potter as much as pretty much anyone and this show was the sequel i had been wanting for a long time! Lots of jabs at Cursed Child if you know that story, and overall the whole experience was fun and playful. Lots of characters, the story was dark and fun and scary and funny and just everything i could have wanted! 10/10 recommend! The script was incredible and engaging... I seriously could not have been happier. ... full review

I loved loved LOVED the show!!!! I read all of the books and this was a perfect add on and just what I wanted! Fellow Slytherins definitely don’t want to miss out ;) very funny and just a really great show to watch, I seriously can’t rave enough... full review

Wonderful performances by a talented, eclectic ensemble of actors. Definitely a must for Harry Potter Fans. Imaginative, Fun... and a surprisingly dark satire - how delicious!... full review

The writing in this show is absolutely incredible and the script speaks for itself. Worthen writes new, genuine characters into creation, and develops and stays true to your favorite Harry Potter characters, all while weaving in clever humor and pure magic. The cast is fantastic and paints a beautiful picture of how the next generation of Hogwarts wizards and witches grow and love in the ever-changing wizarding world.... full review

Fun for Fans to step into a Brand New Potter-land, but pretty glum going, with adultery and bitter familial conflicts on the agenda! Enthusiastic (and Large!) Cast gallops through 5 years at Hogwarts in 14 scenes and 45 minutes in Act One, with plenty of downtime for blackouts. In Act Two, longer, mid-life original Harry and his pals step forward to manage The Plot to a Happy and actionful Ending. Missing the Music and the Magnificent Mounting of the Movies, it still held my attention! ... full review

This is a fantastic tribute to Harry Potter and answer to Cursed Child. The writing made sense!! It's full of both funny and tear-jerking moments (and digs at Cursed Child), and incredible special effects. If this play could be produced again with the production value it deserves, I would absolutely see it like five more times. Honestly, it's that good. If you have ever even vaguely heard of Harry Potter, go see it.... full review
