Theater students at East View High School in Georgetown will be the first group to perform Cursed Child in the state of Texas. They were awarded the rights to put on the play after submitting a video detailing the 'magic' of their program.

Imani Jade Powers as Delphi Diggory, Erik C. Peterson as Scorpius Malfoy and Joel Meyers as Albus Potter in theWands at the ready, all of you wizards and witches! Come this fall, Central Texans will have the opportunity to experience some magic that until now has been restricted to Broadway.

"I think that it’ll be a really good experience all around for our underclassmen," she said."It will help them grow. They’re gonna find things they relate to in it." Originally, the play was split into two separate two-and-a-half-hour shows. Audiences would typically see the two shows on the same day or two nights in a row.

"That’s the cool part about theater. … requires that willing suspension of disbelief," he said."So a lot of it’s going to be imagination or shadow play. We’ve already started talking about how we’re going to do some of that magic with some cool technology."
