Harry Potter and the Cursed Child book review: How the script compares to the Palace
Theatre production
by Jack Shepherd (published in Independent)
For every HarryPotter fan, the release of The Cursed Child is a dream come true. Who
thought an eighth part to the Boy-Who-Lived’s story would actually materialise so soon after
the main series finished? However, it quickly transpired this was going to be no normal book
release.
JK Rowling chose to release The Cursed Child as a play, one ‘tailor made for the stage’ as
noted inThe Independent’s five-star review of the Palace Theatre production. Critics,
including myself, were blown away by the magical performance, Jack Thorne and John
Tiffany helping Rowling create something of immense wonder.
So, how does the script, released to the public in book form, compare to the theatre
production? Is the magic still there? Already, fans have devoured the story, taking it apart bit
by bit, uncovering inconsistencies in the story telling, particularly regarding a certain time-
turner paradox. Could it have ever lived up to expectations?
Unfortunately, as fantastic as the production was, racing through the script was never going
to compare. Where stage theatrics sparked imaginations, now there are brief lines quickly
explaining huge set-ups; everyone knew the script couldn’t compete with the stage
production, begging the question, should this have ever been released in this format?
An example of the script being unmeasurable against the production comes in act one,
scene four. It starts with the explanation: “And now we enter a world of time changing. And
this Scene is all about magic.” In these few pages our hero, Albus Severus Potter, goes from
being sorted into a Hogwarts house in his first year to rushing onto the Express in his third.
Along the way, we’re treated to a brief Quidditch lesson, Great Hall assembly, and a Potions
lesson, but they’re all so brief we hardly get a flavour of what is actually happening.
On stage, it was one of the play’s greatest scenes; fast pace but with vivid imagery. If The
Cursed Child was perhaps written as a book this could have been built on but, in these
pages, we barely get a taste of these formative years. It’s so quick, so little is said, readers
will race through, given little direction as what is happening.
Another example comes when the new generation of wizards drink a Polyjuice Potion. In
previous books and on stage, it was utterly hilarious as Rowling’s heroes transformed, yet,
as a script, the scene passes by rapidly, the humour and magic lost.
Of course, this is the problem with releasing The Cursed Child as a script, and one we must
all be resolute with. For those who are unable to see the stage play, there’s still a lot to enjoy
in the script. Scorpius Malfoy, son of Draco Malfoy, is the highlight of the script, funny
throughout. Meanwhile, the titular hero, Harry Potter, has evolved into a slightly grumpy
father and one who lacks some basic parenting skills. It’s a natural progression for an
orphan thrown into the spotlight that is interesting and will no doubt anger some fans.
Without giving too much, the first half is quite innocent, while the second takes a dark turn
thanks to a time-twisting plot that - when read at a reasonable pace - can be quite confusing,
at times reading like fan-fiction, particularly when cameo when cameo after cameo rolls in.
If you do have the luxury of being able to attend the Palace Theatre production, I highly
recommend it. If you’re unable to do so, perhaps wait until the inevitable three-part film
series comes.

The WoundClot Gauze, is a single use, sterile, and bioabsorbable medical device that is
fabricated to suit a variety of wounds. It is made from cellulose with a molecular structure
designed to entrap platelets and coagulants in a modified physical molecular matrix,
specifically designed to create this hemodynamic polymer membrane, with high adherence
and resilience, able to withhold massive blood pressure and restrict blood flow almost
immediately.
The ability to adhere to a bleeding wound reduces the amount of pressure needed in order
to stop bleeding, thus preventing unnecessary damage the body caused by excessive
pressure, or infection caused by prolonged contact with the wound. Next, platelets from the
injury attach to the gauze by inter-molecular forces to form a stable membrane, which is able
to withstand severe arterial and venous blood flow for hours.
At the same time, specifically designed molecular functional groups transform to enhance
and activate the natural coagulation process. Coagulation is a complex chain reaction,
where different elements are motivated into action, conditioned from other reactions.
Specific molecular groups, created in the manufacturing process, are then dispersed during
gel formation to activate various coagulation factors in the blood, thus helping to form a
physiologically natural fibrin clot in the wound. The ability to influence these reactions
speeds the whole coagulation process.
After bleeding has stopped, the remaining residual membrane can be irrigated out of the
wound safely without pulling on soft tissue or the existing clot. WoundClot is designed to
maintain its integrity through polymeric chains, specifically designed to interact with water
molecules to form a physical cross linked network, which is manageable and natural.

But these instances are memorable, because they are rare. The friendship which is to be
practiced or expected by common mortals, must take its rise from mutual pleasure, and must
end when the power ceases of delighting each other.
Many accidents therefore may happen by which the ardor of kindness will be abated, without
criminal baseness or contemptible inconstancy on either part. To give pleasure is not always
in our power; and little does he know himself who believes that he can be always able to
receive it.
Those who would gladly pass their days together may be separated by the different course
of their affairs; and friendship, like love, is destroyed by long absence, though it may be
increased by short intermissions. What we have missed long enough to want it, we value
more when it is regained; but that which has been lost till it is forgotten, will be found at last
with little gladness, and with still less if a substitute has supplied the place. A man deprived
of the companion to whom he used to open his bosom, and with whom he shared the hours
of leisure and merriment, feels the day at first hanging heavy on him; his difficulties oppress,
and his doubts distract him; he sees time come and go without his wonted gratification, and
all is sadness within, and solitude about him. But this uneasiness never lasts long; necessity
produces expedients, new amusements are discovered, and new conversation is admitted.
No expectation is more frequently disappointed, than that which naturally arises in the mind
from the prospect of meeting an old friend after long separation. We expect the attraction to
be revived, and the coalition to be renewed; no man considers how much alteration time has
made in himself, and very few inquire what effect it has had upon others. The first hour
convinces them that the pleasure which they have formerly enjoyed, is forever at an end;
different scenes have made different impressions; the opinions of both are changed; and
that similitude of manners and sentiment is lost which confirmed them both in the
approbation of themselves.
Friendship is often destroyed by opposition of interest, not only by the ponderous and visible
interest which the desire of wealth and greatness forms and maintains, but by a thousand
secret and slight competitions, scarcely known to the mind upon which they operate. There
is scarcely any man without some favorite trifle which he values above greater attainments,
some desire of petty praise which he cannot patiently suffer to be frustrated. This minute
ambition is sometimes crossed before it is known, and sometimes defeated by wanton
petulance; but such attacks are seldom made without the loss of friendship; for whoever has
once found the vulnerable part will always be feared, and the resentment will burn on in
secret, of which shame hinders the discovery.
This, however, is a slow malignity, which a wise man will obviate as inconsistent with quiet,
and a good man will repress as contrary to virtue; but human happiness is sometimes
violated by some more sudden strokes.
A dispute begun in jest upon a subject which a moment before was on both parts regarded
with careless indifference, is continued by the desire of conquest, till vanity kindles into rage,
and opposition rankles into enmity. Against this hasty mischief, I know not what security can
be obtained; men will be sometimes surprised into quarrels; and though they might both
haste into reconciliation, as soon as their tumult had subsided, yet two minds will seldom be
found together, which can at once subdue their discontent, or immediately enjoy the sweets
of peace without remembering the wounds of the conflict.
Friendship has other enemies. Suspicion is always hardening the cautious, and disgust
repelling the delicate. Very slender differences will sometimes part those whom long
reciprocation of civility or beneficence has united. Lonelove and Ranger retired into the
country to enjoy the company of each other, and returned in six weeks, cold and petulant;
Ranger's pleasure was to walk in the fields, and Lonelove's to sit in a bower; each had
complied with the other in his turn, and each was angry that compliance had been exacted.
The most fatal disease of friendship is gradual decay, or dislike hourly increased by causes
too slender for complaint, and too numerous for removal. Those who are angry may be
reconciled; those who have been injured may receive a recompense: but when the desire of
pleasing and willingness to be pleased is silently diminished, the renovation of friendship is
hopeless; as, when the vital powers sink into languor, there is no longer any use of the
physician.

Many issues have been plaguing the sports world recently, especially the question of paying
college athletes. Are athletics so important that colleges need to put out millions of dollars
per year just to pay for students to play for them? Paying college athletes is like throwing a lit
match into a haystack: once the fire is started, it just keeps burning, making a bad situation
worse.
There are several differences between the haystack and paying athletes. To start,
throwing a needle in a haystack is a totally negative concept; everything will burn. However,
with paying college athletes, some people can find reasons why this could be a positive
thing. For instance, some believe paying athletes will bring more competition to the table and
make some colleges much more prestigious than others. Others say this will bring in more
money and more revenue. A second difference is the end of the situation. At the end of the
fire, there is smoke and it will eventually put itself out. However, this is an issue that cannot
extinguish itself. No matter what the verdict, someone is going to be unhappy and the "fire"
will keep burning.
Despite these differences there are many similarities between the two. One similarity is the
haystack going up in flames and the whole educational system going up. If we pay our
college athletes the focus will be more on the money than on learning.
College is supposed to prepare a student for life's work through learning, not be life's work.
College sports will also become more like professional sports- all about the money and less
about the love of the sport. Related to this is the issue of scholarships. Are scholarships not
enough pay for the student? And who decides how much money each player receives? Will
it depend on how good the player is, what sport they play, what position they are?
Another similarity has to deal with going up in flames. By throwing one little lit match into that
haystack, the whole thing goes up. Just by paying college athletes many other issues arise.
Yes, paying athletes may bring in more revenue, but how much of that will actually go back
to the college or institution? Another issue that comes up is the fairness to other students.
Young athletes already receive many things that non- athletes do not. Not only do they have
the opportunity to travel and stay overnight in the best hotels, they also get special
treatments away from the sport. Some athletes may receive special attention from certain
professors or even people throughout the town in which the college is located.
A third similarity between the burning haystack and paying athletes is the rate at which
things will "burn". The haystack will burn fast, leaving nothing behind, and getting bigger and
bigger as it goes. The same goes for this issue. Everyone wants to voice their own opinion
about it, snowballing into a bigger and bigger issue. People will quickly become angry and
quick to defend their side.
Paying college athletes is like throwing a lit match into a haystack: the educational system
and other issues go up in flames and they will occur very quickly. I believe there are more
problems with this idea than there are good things about it. I find nothing about it to be worth
spending millions of dollars to pay students to play a game. They need to be worrying more
about their studies. This issue will be burning for a long time.
