The Red Carpet Waits
The red carpet looked a bit empty earlier in the day...
But it didn't take long for it to fill with eagerly awaiting fans.
Fans made sure to be prepared for a chance to get autographs.
And they shared our excitement!
The World Wished Them Luck
Fellow Broadway play and critically acclaimed musical Dear Evan Hansen took to Twitter to wish the Cursed Child cast and crew members the best of luck.
And so did the cast and crew members from the Palace Theatre in London!
The Arrivals
The Queen arrived, looking lovely in a periwinkle dress.
We know we aren't the only ones who are so thankful for the amazing people behind Cursed Child.
We also know we're not the only ones enviously eyeing those autographs!
Some old friends stopped by...
And so did some new ones!
Filmed Coverage of the Red Carpet
The Stars and Their Hogwarts Houses
In an interview on the red carpet, the attending stars revealed their Houses!
All-day attendees included Chris Rock, Liev Schreiber, Brooke Shields, Glenn Close and Whoopi Goldberg, who came cloaked in a Hogwarts robe. Close didn’t know what Hogwarts [H]ouse she was in, but Goldberg knew she was in Gryffindor — and invited Close to join her there. Playwright Thorne, meanwhile, said he was a Ravenclaw, while director Tiffany was Gryffindor with, according to him, a bit of Slytherin deep down. Sonia Friedman, who produces 'Cursed Child' with Colin Callender, said she was Hufflepuff but seemed very sheepish about it.
