Potted Potter Review

Over labor day weekend, my best friend and her husband took me to see the Harry Potter parody show called Potted Potter.  The show is performed by Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner and the premise is "7 books in 70 minutes."  My review: freaking awesome.

I laughed the entire time.  What was great about the show was not only the fact that it was hilarious, but that no two summaries were alike.  The 3rd book was done with PowerPoint, the 7th was a song and the 4th was a large quiddich game.  How you ask?  They placed two quiddich rings on either side of the audience, split the audience in two and we had to hit a beach ball back and forth to try to get it inside the rings.  Then there was the snitch.  They called upon two kids to play the Gryffindor and Slytherin seekers, had Jess dressed as the snitch and the two kids chased him around the stage.  The Gryffindor seeker was this little girl who tackled Jeff to the ground.  The crowd went wild.  And as the comedians that they were, Dan and Jeff played it up for the rest of the show.

Unfortunately, the run ended on September 2nd otherwise I would advise everyone to go see it as soon as possible.  Instead, I will say, if they ever do come back, catch the show as fast as you can.

Before I go, one last photo of me at the show.  Boy was I happy.
