Which play by J.K. Rowling continues Harry Potter’s story nineteen years after the final novel?

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child continues Harry Potter’s story nineteen years after the final novel.

The stage production is set in 2017, nineteen years after the epilogue of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Its central relationship is between Harry, now an employee of the Ministry of Magic, and his son Albus Severus Potter. Draco Malfoy’s son, Scorpius, is also a major character.

The play was written by Jack Thorne, based on an original story by Thorne, J.K. Rowling, and John Tiffany. It is presented as the eighth official story in the Harry Potter series, but it is a stage play rather than a novel written solely by Rowling.

The original production opened in London’s West End in 2016. The published script was released as a book titled Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Parts One and Two. The story’s time-travel plot connects its events to important moments from the earlier books.
