All Seven Harry Potter Books in Seventy Hilarious Minutes!
Playing to sold-out houses all over the world, "Potted Potter" condenses all seven Harry Potter books (and a real life game of Quidditch) into seventy hilarious minutes.

The show features all your favorite characters, a special appearance from a fire-breathing dragon, endless costumes, brilliant songs, ridiculous props and a generous helping of Hogwarts magic!

Created by Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, the show is a must-see for Potter addicts and a great introduction to the series for anyone who's ever wondered what all the fuss is about.  Even if you don't know the difference between a Horcrux and a Hufflepuff, "Potted Potter" will make you roar with laughter. This brilliant family entertainment is perfect for ages six to Dumbledore (who is very old indeed).

Clarkson and Turner first created the show in 2005 for an appearance at a London bookshop, as a five-minute entertainment for fans awaiting the release of the sixth book in the series.  The show grew from there into a full-length stage production, first seen at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2006, and has since toured internationally, including sell-out seasons at the Adelaide Fringe, Melbourne Comedy Festival and New Zealand Comedy Festival in 2009.

"Potted Potter" has played to sold-out houses in Toronto, London and Edinburgh, and has just started its debut season in New York City.  It was a 2012 Olivier Award Nominee for Best Entertainment & Family Show.
