“Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” has been on Broadway for more than a year and a half, but don’t expect to see the original Harry in the audience.
Actor Daniel Radcliffe, who grew up before our eyes as “the boy who lived,” said on “Late Night with Seth Meyers” on Wednesday that he’s been asked a lot about whether he’d be taking in the two-part play.
“I always give a really boring, terrible answer,” he told Meyers. “I’m probably not going to see it, I don’t have plans to. Not because I think it would throw me into some sort of existential crisis of like, ‘Oh, is that what happened?’ “

It would “not be a relaxing evening,” Radcliffe said. “I feel like I would be being watched for my reaction. And maybe that is completely conceited and egotistical and people wouldn’t care, but I do feel if I was just surrounded by ‘Harry Potter’ fans, it would be a little odd.”
Fair enough. If you were sitting next to Radcliffe, could you resist sneaking a peek?
As for going incognito, we’re guessing the actor doesn’t have any Polyjuice potion or even a handy spell to change his appearance. A disguise?
“The thing about a disguise,” Radcliffe said, “is that if it stops working, then you’re just a dude who wore a disguise.”
Well said.
