The producers of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child – Sonia Friedman Productions, Colin Callender and Harry Potter Theatrical Productions – announce two new international productions of the multi award-winning play. In 2025 Harry Potter and the Cursed Child will launch in Brazil, followed by the Netherlands in 2026.

The Brazilian run of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, to be performed in Portuguese, is produced by VME, marking the play’s inaugural run in Latin America. The Netherlands production will be performed in Dutch and is produced by Stage Entertainment. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in Brazil and the Netherlands will be performed as the reimagined, one-part version of the play and mark the ninth and tenth productions of the critically acclaimed show. Further details will be announced at a later date.

Sonia Friedman and Colin Callender, producers of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child said “We are thrilled to be launching two new productions of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. The story and themes of Harry Potter – friendship, self-discovery, courage, sacrifice, love and forgiveness, and of course growing up and the challenges of parenting – resonates with so many people around the world, and we are excited to be able to share our play with new audiences in Brazil and the Netherlands. We look forward to collaborating with our producing partners VME and Stage Entertainment to bring the magic of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child to two new countries”

       

“Bringing Harry Potter and the Cursed Child to Brazil is a milestone not just for theater but for entertainment as a whole in the country. Brazil is the third-largest global market for the franchise, and fans here have created a unique connection with this magical universe that transcends generations. From books to games and movies, Harry Potter is a true cultural phenomenon,” says Vinícius Munhoz, CEO of VME and producer of the Brazilian production.

Arthur de Bok, CEO of Stage Entertainment, producers of the Netherlands production, said: “We are proud to bring Harry Potter and the Cursed Child to the Netherlands. A globally beloved story about friendship and making your own choices in life. The show offers an intense experience for the audience, with stunning effects that bring the magic of Harry Potter to life on stage. We look forward to giving our audience an unforgettable experience and lasting memories with this fantastic show.”
