The Tony Award-winning play "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" is headed to Broadway in Chicago later this year, with tickets first going on sale on Monday, the touring home announced.
The show will run at the James M. Nederlander Theatre officially from Sept. 26, 2024 to Feb. 1 2025.
Tickets will be available starting at 10 a.m. local time Monday, both online and at the theatre's box office.
Previews for the performance will begin on Sept. 10 before the show's 21-week engagement officially begins on Sept. 26.
According to Broadway in Chicago, the show is based on the successful Broadway production currently playing at Lyric Theatre in New York.
The play picks up right where the final Harry Potter film left off, picking up on a new adventure with Harry, Hermione and Ron 19 years after the trio saved the Wizarding World.
The production currently has shows running in New York, Hamburg, Tokyo and London, having recently completed runs in Melbourne, Toronto and San Francisco.
