Harry Potter’s adulthood sounds like a major bummer in The Cursed Child
Harry Potter has offered wish fulfillment to millions of readers and moviegoers, as “The Boy Who Lived” was plucked from his mundane life with the Dursleys and fulfilled a destiny full of magic, wonder, and danger. Years later, J.K. Rowling has picked up the pieces where the epilogue of The Deathly Hallows left off, with Harry Potter And The Cursed Child, an eighth story written exclusively for the stage. Pottermore.com has published artwork and a synopsis for the play:
It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.
