'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' celebrates 10 years as West End record-holder

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' marks 10 years as West End's longest-running non-musical

New York Post"Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" is marking a decade as one of the West End's longest-running non-musical productions, having opened at London's Palace Theatre in 2016. Both NOTUS and the New York Post cover the anniversary with the same framing — a rare durability record for a straight play in a market where long runs are typically musicals. Neither outlet adds box-office figures, cast updates, or details on anniversary programming, leaving the milestone itself as the whole of the story. The production's decade-long survival underscores the enduring commercial pull of the Harry Potter franchise even outside the film and book format.
