Is anyone wearing House Robes to Cursed Child — Page 2

If you want to wear your robe, wear it and have fun. It's not hurting anyone else."

Like animals on airplanes, I'd much rather be seated next to someone in a robe who doesn't talk, eat, text, or kick my seat, than a person in a suit who behaves like the theatre is their living room.

I'm working here (not saying as what though...) and I've seen PLENTY of robes...and while I do agree live theatre is not the place for this, do this at a movie theater if you must as I certainly dressed up when I went to see Deathly Hallows at midnight, I WILL say just about every patron who's worn one has seemingly been on their most respectful behavior. As long as one's behavior is respectful, wearing robes is the least of my personal worries.

Sadly it seems every theater now is allowing food into the house...THAT'S where I draw the line. I can't believe this is legit thing now. But I can only put my own personal foot down, as I have no control over those kinds of rules.

The day we waited in line for first show tix, tons of staff were wearing the House hats and scarves they sell in the store. My guess is they are pleased that folks dress up, it adds to the fun, and possibly gets others to buy the merch.

I think the point was the photos, and people posting said photos on social media, to get more people into the theater. Once you get people in the theater, the merch sorts itself out.

I'll be wearing my Slytherin cardigan, Slytherin hair bow, Platform 9 3/4 earrings, and a pair of Deathly Hallows tights.

No one is going to take my enjoyment out of this so I'm going to do what I want to do.

I'm 35 and will happily be wearing my Hufflepuff robe when I go. And I'm sure my 10 year old will be in her Ravenclaw robe as well. I guess I didn't really think of wearing robes as cosplay since I'll be wearing normal, dressy clothes underneath (as opposed to a Hogwarts uniform type of outfit). Either way, I'm a huge Potter fan and I promise my daughter and I will both be some of the best behaved audience members there, so I don't care too much if someone doesn't like our robes :).

I don't have a picture of them, but they are from this pack: https://www.hottopic.com/product/harry-potter-symbols-earrings-set/11134249.html#q=harry%2Bpotter%2Bearrings&start=3

One thing I wish they sold were chocolate frogs and jelly slugs and butterbeer!“



are they selling any Harry Potter themed foods? I saw a picture in the lyric theater tag of someone holding pumpkin juice. I’m not sure if they brought it from somewhere else or if they were selling it at the theater.

I searched and the only thematic food I could find was the pumpkin juice, but maybe later on they’ll have more
