Great news for all Potterheads who won’t be able to make it to the West End to see the theatrical production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: the play will be published in book form!
The script of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, based on a story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany and written by Jack Thorne, will be published both as an eBook through Pottermore, and hardcover by Scholastic in the U.S.

And that’s not even all – the play will be published in two versions, the first one being an early version of the script and the second one being the finalised version.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child premieres July 30th and the book will be published on July 31st. Which turns out to be Harry’s birthday. We see what you did there, miss Rowling.
