James Snyder, who has played the title character of Broadway’s recently retooled Harry Potter and the Cursed Child since the show returned from the pandemic shutdown, has been fired by producers following a complaint by co-star Diane Davis about Snyder’s conduct.
The exact nature of the conduct has not been specified. But producers Sonia Friedman Productions, Colin Callender, and Harry Potter Theatrical Productions indicate that following Davis’ initial complaint on Nov. 19, 2021, the production commissioned an independent investigation by a third party. At the time, Snyder was suspended pending the investigation’s completion.
Today, producers announced that with the conclusion of the investigation, Snyder will not return to the production, and his contract has been terminated.

The revamped Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, which will return to Broadway as a one-part play rather than the original two-part event, has announced an opening date of Tuesday, Dec. 7, at the Lyric Theatre. As previously announced, preview performances will begin Friday, November 12.
The original two-part version, which opened on Broadway in 2018, ran for a total of five hours and required the purchase of separate tickets for each part. When producers announced last July that the play would return in shorter form, playwright Jack Thorne and director John Tiffany said they had been working on the new version throughout the pandemic lockdown. “It has given us a unique opportunity to look at the play with fresh eyes and we have been inspired by the entire creative team every step of the way,” they said in a joint statement.

Like any magic worth an incantation, Harry Potter and The Cursed Child, opening on Broadway at the Lyric Theater tonight, depends on unspoiled illusions, a delight in life’s wonders and the skills to present it all as if no one had ever even considered its combinations before, much less pulled them off. I won’t spoil any illusions – the production itself handles the rest. Cursed Child is a marvel, a shape-shifting play that effortlessly incorporates music and choreographed movement, classic storytelling and fresh perspectives, a look that incorporates World War II-era Britain and Victorian spiritualism with Hollywood’s latest flash. In a Broadway season of award-worthy revivals, this tale of whatever happened to The Boy Who Lived feels bracingly, piercingly new.
