I love the story and the music. I fell in love with the friendship between Voldemort and quirrel. I watch this over and over again. I recommend this to anyone who hasn't seen this yet. I have become inspired by this show as it brought my confidence to perform back and I am currently working with an amazing theatre group in en-gland

I want to start out on a good note, some of the humor was funny from time to time and the music was good for a fan-made musical. But to be quite honest, I hated this musical deeply. Not only were the characters you were supposed to like in the story absolutely detestable, but the humor itself was overused and dry. I mean really, how many times do you want to hear Ron and Harry be complete jerks to Hermione and Ginny? On top of all that, the story was muddled and at times hard to follow. The only redeeming qualities of this musical, in my eyes, were the music and the enthusiasm of the actors, but past that, the play was horrible in humor and utterly impossible to enjoy. I wouldn't recommend it to Potter fans and families with children at all.

This play was just amazing. Great songs, amazing actors, and it was hilarious. I have all the songs on my kindle and just adore Starkid to no end. This was their first play and it's amazing how well it turned out. I loved Darren and was so happy to he could be in it. Joey was hilarious and Nick Lang's job writing it was beautiful. The IMDb page for this unfortunately needs work. I'm not sure how to do it myself but it needs a title picture and all the actors and actresses need pictures too. Also rated E? I love this show but it is no way kid friendly. It's pretty heavy on the swearing so I'd say pg 13. Overall its a hilarious parody that still keeps it's respect for the original source material. It is compelling, funny, and imaginative. I would encourage anyone who can to watch it.

This musical is so funny, I don't know how many times I have watched it its so awesome. Darren Criss is awesome as the leading man, but I have got to say Joe Walker as Voldemort and Lauren Lopez as Draco steal the show for me. With awesome one liners and and hilarious in-jokes this has to be one of my favorite musicals ever. It does not fail in entertainment, and keeps you attracted throughout the show, as well as the catchy musical tunes which will keep you singing one line through your head for the rest of the week before you go back and listen to it. "Back to witches and wizards and magical feasts, back to goblins and ghosts and magical beasts. It's all that I love and all that I need at Hogwarts! Hogwarts! I think I'm going back" If you're a huge Potter fan you will absolutely love this. Ten out of TenTeam Starkid yeah!
