What is the name of J.K. Rowling’s 2016 stage play set nineteen years after Harry Potter’s final novel?

J.K. Rowling’s 2016 stage play set nineteen years after the final Harry Potter novel is Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

The play was written by Jack Thorne and directed by John Tiffany, with Rowling credited as a story creator. Its story begins with Harry Potter working at the Ministry of Magic and his son Albus Severus Potter starting at Hogwarts. The central relationship is between Albus and Scorpius Malfoy, Draco Malfoy’s son.

The production opened in London’s West End in 2016. Its published script was released as a book on 31 July 2016, the fictional birthday of Harry Potter and the real birthday of Rowling. The script is presented as the official eighth story in the Harry Potter series, although it is a play rather than a novel.

The title is sometimes shortened to Cursed Child, but the full title includes Harry Potter. The story’s time-travel plot revisits events from the original books while introducing a new generation of characters.
