Fans don't have long to wait to see the wands in action, with previews beginning at the Palace Theatre in London on July 30.

The eighth story in Rowling's beloved series takes place 19 years after Deathly Hallows, with now-husband and father Harry eking out a living as an overworked Ministry of Magic employee.

It's his young son Albus Severus Potter who now faces his (and his father's) destiny as The Boy Who Lived - one which he never asked for or wanted.

Already generating much excitement months ahead of its premiere, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child sold a massive 175,000 tickets for its initial previews last autumn - with an extended run booked all the way through May 2017.

The Cursed Child is presented as a two-part play, designed to be seen over a matinee and evening (or two successive nights).
