Potted Potter: cracking good!
by Schafcisco on 1/12/16Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - ChicagoLoved it and my 8 year old Harry Potter fan daughter did as well. I've never seen her laugh so hard at a performance. There's something quite special about watching your child fall back in her chair, mouth wide open in delight. I laughed just as hard and enjoyed the show just as much...as did all of the adults in attendance and there were many! Wicked good fun, even if you've not read all the books you'll still enjoy (plus they don't give away too many spoilers). The live quidditch game (audience participation) was a hoot and so much fun. The "I will survive" sing-off was priceless. Kudos to the brilliant actors who pulled off the unthinkable: 2 guys parodying their way through 7 Harry Potter books with few costumes and props. Speaks volumes to their talent. Go see it if you get the chance!
