This morning on Twitter, J. K. Rowling announced that Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, a new stage play centered on the series, will open next summer at the Palace Theatre in London's West End. The script was written by Jack Thorne, who collaborated with Rowling, and is being directed by John Tiffany, with singer-songwriter Imogen Heap writing the music.
"I don't want to say too much more, because I don't want to spoil what I know will be a real treat for fans," Rowling tweeted, adding: "However, I can say that it is not a prequel!"
