After a record-breaking run of four years and 1,000+ shows, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is leaving Australian shores. So, how do you say goodbye to a character you've played every night for such a long time?

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume.Harry Potter and the Cursed Child to end show in Melbourne.abc.net.au/news/harry-potter-and-the-cursed-child-to-close-in-melbourne/101936354It's almost time to put the wands back in the pockets and hang up the cloaks, because the Australian production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is coming to an end in July.

The Australian production was the first one globally to re-open — in February 2021 — after COVID-induced lockdowns crippled the show, and the wider performing arts, worldwide. The show, which takes place 19 years after the conclusion of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, follows Harry, Ron and Hermione as they team up with a brand-new generation of wizards and witches — boasting plenty of on-stage magic and illusions along the way.

"It's going to be heartbreaking to say goodbye to that. Because in so many ways, that was a dream, to do that kind of work." Aside from being longer than the average production – and all the physical and mental demands that come with one of those – the show also boasts plenty of magical stagecraft, demanding detailed and intense movements from the cast alongside plenty of rigour, including pyrotechnics and levitation, from those behind the scenes.

Indian police arrest over 2,000 men for illegal child marriagesThousands of men are arrested as part of a crackdown on illegal child marriages involving underage girls in the north-eastern state of Assam. Australians arent Indians. First politicians bring these people to Australia, then they whine that foreigners cause crime. They then blame ' All men ' as if we are responsible because they are running of reasons to hate men. So we are ending Immigration then? Hmmm, we should bring 300,000 here🤷‍♂️ Bring the women over if they need refuge, but don’t let the men. They’re good for nothing

Time’s up for ‘equal rights’ in court custody battlesThe government has called time on the “shared responsibility” test for child custody battles, to the chagrin of some fathers. The parent who gets custody should bear 100% of the cost. They should ring up John Howard and whinge to him. Another legacy of his culture wars. I guess that will mean more money for lawyers as more parents will have to use legal means to obtain it (shared..).

Royal Family took ‘a bit of a hit’ to their popularity after Prince Harry’s bookSky News host Caroline Di Russo says the Royal Family took “a bit of a hit to their popularity” in the aftermath of the release of Spare. “And while the consequences of Spare are still being felt, they're not necessarily as damaging to the rest of the family as they are to the Prince himself,” she said. Mostly a female crowd. Am I wrong in thinking it's women who keep royalty and religion alive? Next logical step..
