The announcement was made on Tuesday local time by producers Sonia Friedman and Colin Callender of Harry Potter Theatrical Productions.

“When we embarked on this journey, it was an objective to ensure we could get the production to Australia as soon as logistically possible," said Friedman and Callender in a statement.

"You can’t ever assume a new play is going to have a further life, but we knew that if Harry Potter and the Cursed Childdid have a life beyond London and Broadway, that the next stop would be here."

Since its world premiere in July 2016 at London's Palace Theatre, it's become synonymous with hard-to-get tickets like The Book of Mormon —and it's now the most-awarded production in the history of Britain’s Olivier Awards.

Accio plot summary! Staged in two parts meant to be seen in order on the same day, the play meets up with our mate Harry, as a seriously overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic. You'll meet his youngest son, Albus, who's struggling with the dark family legacy.

Be patient for dates and ticket details, and don't buy them at the Hog's Head from cloaked strangers taking dragon eggs as a trade.
