The Special Rehearsal Edition of the script book will be released on July 31 with a simultaneous ebook release online.

"We are absolutely delighted to be able to make the play available for fans who can't make it to London to see it, and who would like to read it in book format."
"It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn't much easier now that he is an employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children," says the official blurb.
While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted.
Both father and son learn that sometimes darkness comes from unexpected places.
The Palace Theatre in London is where the production is taking place.
