Harry Potter fans will be tickled pink to find out the J.K. Rowling has said there will be a Harry Potter played hitting the stage in London in 2016!

With the tremendous success of all the Harry Potter books and movies, you knew it was only going to be a matter of time before we saw more of Harry. J.K. Rowling confirmed on her Twitter feed, that a new Harry Potter Play called 'The Cursed Child', a result of a collaboration between herself and writer Jack Bourne and director John Tiffany, will hit theaters sometime in 2016.

Rowling said she had countless offers to extend the 'Harry Potter' story over the years, but felt the play was the only proper medium for a new story.

Tickets for the play, which will open next summer at the Palace Theatre, will go on sale in the Fall. Further details on tickets will be announced on the play's official website in late July.
