Found the Hilary Mantel plays more exciting and better acted They were adaptations, not original plays like Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. |

Alice Arnold and Ruthie Henshall are horrible in the radio broadcast, what's the matter with them? Is Ruthie so bitter just because she can't sing anymore?

Pre-existing characters, old plot rehashed, hardly 100% original work. "Bend it, bend it, bend it, bend it..." (etc) and most Shakespeare plays. |

Ok, I'm sorry, but now I'm even more inclined to call this a popularity contest. I actually really enjoyed Jamie Parker's performance in Harry Potter, and totally think he deserved his nomination spot. But the fact that he won is utterly ridiculous. Personally, I think every single other actor in that category gave a far more memorable performance than he did. I could MAYBE accept that he beat Tom Hollander, but McKellen and Harris were far, far better than Parker, in my opinion. Which just goes to show how subjective it all is - I loved Parker's performance, but I think if anyone may have edged it for the award, it was Hollander! |

Haven't read the thread back so sorry if this has already been discussed, but Alice and Ruthie on the Magic Radio broadcast are driving me nuts...why do they sound so bitter?!
Also...they seem shocked that Harry Potter isn't a musical...because it's got music in it? Are they actually being serious?
*face palm*

What I find most amazing
Is that
The books were hardly praised from a literary aspect
And the films were ignored as far as any major meaningful awards go
Isn't it then interesting
That a stage adaption should be garlanded with awards
Says plenty about the theatre

"Girl Perfect.... Girl Perfect.... Girl Perfect.... Girl Perfect...."
"Stand up.... stand up.... stand up.... stand up....."
"Bend it.... bend it.... bend it.... bend it....."
And the coconut goes too....

That a stage adaption should be garlanded with awards If you'd actually watched the show, which you claim to have attended, you would know it's not an adaptation. |

Oh well Harry Potter has basically hovered up all the awards it can so far, which was predictable, this will be in all the news in which Sonia Friedman just happens to open the next booking period.

Yes there is loads of music in the play. I love the music in Harry Potter and wish they would release it but it is clearly NOT a musical |
