ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 A new show in town is not only making its Orlando debut, but its Florida launch as well.<\/p>\n

1. \u201cHarry Potter and the Cursed Child\u201d<\/a> is the Broadway show making its Sunshine State debut at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts.<\/p>\n

2. Fans of the Harry Potter books and films know all about Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy. But in this production, the sons of these fierce enemies have befriended one another, and this story sparks a new journey for them all.<\/p>\n

3. We recently popped into DPAC to meet up with David Fine, an actor portraying Scorpius Malfoy (Draco\u2019s son). He says the magic on stage is unlike anything ever seen before. \u201cThere are illusions that I still don\u2019t even know how they\u2019re done,\u201d he laughed. \u201cI\u2019ll watch them from the wings and I\u2019m like, I don\u2019t understand, and I don\u2019t\u00a0want\u00a0to understand.\u201d<\/p>\n

4. David speaks highly of Harry Potter\u2019s son, actor Adam Grant Morrison. \u201cI\u2019ve really loved getting to work with Adam and developing our friendship offstage, and that gets to bleed on stage,” he said.<\/p>\n

5. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child runs now through Feb. 15,\u00a02026, at the Dr Phillips Center in Orlando.
