Phantom of London said: "I assume Harry Potter is very popular in the US?"

I LOL'd. This is an understatement.

Okay, I thought Harry Potter is popular and judging by your response he is very, very popular . I didn't want to come across arrogant and say he is popular when I wasn't too sure.

Also this will only play Broadway 4 times a week, as the show is in two parts. Which will only add to demand.

Here in London it is sold out and has became a bit like the equivalent of your Hamilton. Nothing will be announced for New York, until this opens in London in June/July.

I thought I'd heard rumors that Falsettos may be a limited run? Not sure how limited, though, if it's even true at all.

I would guess Potter will go to somewhere like the Shubert, Lunt Fontanne, Al Hirschfeld Theatre, Imperial etc but the August Wilson could work I imagine they'll try and get in on Broadway by late 2017 at the earliest since they'll probably won't want to compete with Frozen in Spring 2018.

JK Rowling said there won't be a film although I suspect there will be a film but I imagine Warner Bros won't make until the Fantastic Beasts trilogy is done and dusted.

Cursed Child will likely go to Broadway but hasn't started in the West End yet and I imagine the producers will want to up and running in London before they even think about international productions, I suspect every theatre owner in NY have had talks with the producers.
