Experience Tumblr Like Never Before
Just saw the play in Hamburg for the first time. It is such a beautiful piece on growing up and emotionally dealing with the process of humanising your parents, trauma and how it affects the following generations. It is such a timeless play, no matter where you live you can relate. We all know what it's like to feel like the odd one out, like we don't belong and how difficult growing up and everything it entails is.
Frankly, the superb magic tricks and the beautiful wizarding dances are only the cherry on top. The true heart of the story is the emotional arch of every character! It is so powerful.
I thought the relationship between Albus and Scorpius was portrayed really beautifully. Simple gazes and touches, that the actors incorporated in such an impactful and tasteful way, perfectly portrayed the blooming romantic feelings that are growing within them. It was very obvious that that is the direction their relationship is already developing into.
I loved it and can't wait to see it again!
