Ebony Blake, the Hermione from the tour, is unfortunately out on medical leave for cancer treatment. Wish her an easy and speedy recovery! https://gofund.me/549496e3

"Last year, Ebony underwent surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy to treat cancer — all while rehearsing to play Hermione in The First National Tour of “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" — with bravery, grace, and grit.

She'd hoped that chapter was closed, but unfortunately, adenoid cystic carcinoma had other plans.

This week, Ebony is undergoing complex surgery at Mt. Sinai in NYC as the next step of this process. Her team is the best of the best and her spirits are high — but our love and support are needed now.

The recovery process will likely be long and may involve additional radiation or surgery, so Ebony has had to step away from the show for the time being. Your contributions will help with medical bills and living expenses, and most importantly, give Ebony and James peace of mind so she can rest and heal."

I recently received a playbill from the LA run of the show and I noticed that Warner Bros Theatre Ventures was an above the title producer. They were not credited during the Chicago engagement and browsing through the programs of engagements of the show since LA they have not retained a producers credit. Anyone have info on what this relationship between the original producers and Warner Bros entailed and why they received a producers credit for LA, but not for any other engagements?
