Harry Potter in 70 hilarious minutesPieter Toerien Productions07/17/2012 14:21:12 
Potted Potter is the unauthorized Harry experience – a parody by Dan and Jeff coming to Montecasino over Christmas. Playing to sold-out houses all over the world, Potted Potter takes on the ultimate challenge of condensing all seven Harry Potter books (and a real life game of Quidditch) into 70 hilarious minutes. This fantastically funny show features all your favourite characters, a special appearance from a fire-breathing dragon, endless costumes, brilliant songs, ridiculous props and a generous helping of Hogwarts magic! Created by double Olivier Award Best Entertainment nominees Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, the show is a must-see for Potter addicts and a great introduction to the series for anyone who’s ever wondered what all the fuss is about. Even if you don’t know the difference between a Horcrux and a Hufflepuff, Potted Potter will make you roar with laughter. This brilliant family entertainment is perfect for ages six to Dumbledore (who is very old indeed). www.pottedpotter.com “A fabulously funny parody. Will tickle the funny bone of every age group.” The London Daily Telegraph – FOUR STARS “Blissfully funny, a winner in every way.
