"Potted Potter"
Comes To Boston's Paramount Center
September 17 – October 6

All Seven Harry Potter Books In 70 Minutes

The hit off-Broadway show "Potted Potter: The Unauthorized Harry Experience – A Parody by Dan and Jeff" is coming to Boston for a limited, three week engagement, September 17 - October 6, at The Paramount Center Mainstage, 559 Washington Street. The Boston engagement follows a run at off-Broadway’s Little Shubert Theatre, and a highly successful North American tour.

Written and performed by former BBC Television hosts Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, "Potted Potter: The Unauthorized Harry Experience" takes on the ultimate challenge of condensing, or “potting” all seven Harry Potter books into 70 madcap minutes, aided only by multiple costume changes, brilliant songs, ridiculous props and a generous helping of Hogwarts magic. The show also invites audiences to engage with a real life game of Quidditch, according to Clarkson and Turner’s unique set of rules. The show is directed by Richard Hurst.

Whether you camped outside a bookstore for three days awaiting the release of The Deathly Hallows or you don’t know the difference between a Horcrux and a Hufflepuff, the comedy, magic and mayhem of "Potted Potter" makes for an entertaining night at the theatre. The fast-paced show, which has made audiences aged six to Dumbledore (who is very old indeed) roar, is perfect for the entire family.

In addition to being a critic's pick by The New York Times, New York Magazine and Time Out London, the show received London's prestigious 2012 Olivier Award nomination for Best Entertainment & Family Show.

For tickets and information, stop by the Paramount box office, call 617-824-8000 or visit paramountboston.org.
