I wasn't crazy about The Cursed Child, although apparently it worked better on stage, and I can see that. Some of the pictures of certain scenes, for instance, showed how significant they were. I forget which scene it was, but the picture was of the trio and Draco standing on a raised pedestal, Hermione in the center. I had not pictured it that way, so that moment was lost.
That's the problem with reading scripts, I think. Even though because I studied literature in college, I'm used to it. But I had a professor point out that even then, what we read were scripts adapted to be read. The script as published was a straight-up script. (Which is also why there were some odd notes that probably wouldn't have been in a script I read for school.)
