Post J.K. Rowling confirms 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' book in script form only

J.K. Rowling went on Twitter to clarify what's in store for the upcoming Harry Potter and the Cursed Child script book, set to release on her 51st birthday, July 31, 2016.

While Cursed Child will be the eighth installment in the Harry Potter saga, it will not be written in typical novel form. It will be a printed version of the London stage's script, which will include dialogue, brief descriptions and stage directions. Also note that the script was written not only by Rowling, but BAFTA award-winning playwright Jack Thorne.

Pre-order the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child hardcover copy here. No word yet on how many pages it will include.





Another significant thing to point out that the version out in July is the REHEARSAL script, which means it may not be the final draft that will be used once the two-part plays officially open at the end of July. That rehearsal version will be available for a limited time only.

There will be a DEFINITIVE, final version of the script published from Scholastic and Little, Brown UK at a future date. So yes, there will be two different editions of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in book-form releasing to fans.

The first previews of the two Harry Potter and the Cursed Child plays at the Palace Theatre in London, starring Jamie Parker, Paul Thornley and Noma Dumezweni, begin in late May.

This made me a little sad, even though I loved to read Shakespeare and his work was in script form, I was really hoping to get my hands on another HP novel. Guess this will be different, maybe a good kind of different?

i could sense schools and neighborhood theater nooks around the world will be putting out their versions of the play now

im ok with this being in script form, it will likely be a faster read too what im thinking about is which version will i get a hard bound copy of?

... to think that i also have to allocate budget for that new FB v2 book that Jo will be putting out soon. plus those illustrated book from Jim Kay. plus those other behind the scenes books from the movies..

Even if this is not going to be technically a novel, I am really excited for this book to come out.

And, considering I work at a performing arts charter school, I think it would be amazing if the students at my school performed in their own version based on the script.

That's a neat idea, MJ!

I'm kind of hoping to be able to buy it when I go see the play at the beginning of June here. I figure that the odds are pretty high it'll be on sale.
