Hello everyone!
This is Sotetsu Fresa Inn Yokohama-Totsuka!

The other day, I went to the TBS Akasaka ACT Theater in Akasaka!

Some of you may have already noticed.

That's right! I went to see the play "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" which is being performed in Akasaka!
It was so... amazing! I was so impressed not only by the actors' performances, but also by the directing, and how expressive a stage performance can be!!

Um, well... well! First of all, calm down!! (Sorry, I'll calm down haha)

Of course the stage was amazing, but as soon as you pass through the ticket gates at Akasaka Station you are transported to a magical world!
The image with the portrait, the red stairs, and Dobby's silhouette is the view you see as soon as you exit Akasaka Station!
And when you go up the stairs, you will be greeted by the key item of this play, the "Time Turner" lol

The bench near the ticket gate exit was also very Hogwarts-themed lol I don't usually get my picture taken by someone, but since I was there, I decided to have one taken as a souvenir!
Mahodokoro, located near the TBS Akasaka ACT Theater, also has a Harry Potter cafe and a wide range of merchandise.
The decorations on the map, the buildings and streetscapes really did create the world of Harry Potter!
After the performance, I happened to walk into a building where there were panels of the cast members, and it was a very meaningful time.
The main production, "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child," takes place 19 years after Harry's battle with the Dark Emperor.
Harry became the father of three children, and the story revolves around his second son, Albus Severus Potter.

I think you can enjoy it even if you haven't seen the entire Harry Potter series.
I think you'll be able to enjoy the play 120% more if you watch the whole thing first.

So please watch all 8 movies before watching the play (impression)...lol

I had actually seen all the movies before, but I watched them all again before seeing this show lol

As I said at the beginning, not only the acting skills but also the directing!!
Anyway, the performance was amazing.

I won't give away any spoilers. Please go see it at the theater!!
It's well worth watching lol
