Off-Broadway | Potted Potter

I finally had the chance to return to the theatre today to see Potted Potter off-broadway. While my last off-broadway experience was so bad that I had just about ruled out off-broadway altogether, I was able to get Potted Potter tickets for such an amazing price that I couldn't help but go. Plus, as a huge Harry Potter fan I'm pretty much always up for things HP related, and that includes theatre parodies. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed Potted Potter, and wanted to share a bit of my experience for those who want to know more about the show.

70 minutes. 7 books. 2 guys. That pretty much sums up Potted Potter! But seriously, be ready for a two-man show that tells the story of Harry Potter in just over an hour (nope, there's no intermission, but you really don't need one). The show is quite lighthearted, and perfect for families. It's silly enough that kids will love it, but there are just enough inside jokes that serious HP fans will be cracking up throughout the show. Potted Potter also has some interactive moments, but nothing too embarrassing for audience members. Overall, the show left me with a smile, and I felt as though my time was well spent.

Now even though I thoroughly enjoyed the show, just a heads up -- there is really no reason to be spending full price on these tickets. It really isn't worth $79.99. You can get $20 off tickets by shopping from Theatermania HERE, or stop by TKTS for discounted tickets as well (today tickets were 50% off!). If you get a great deal, you will definitely enjoy the show a lot more!
