HARRY POTTER FILM STAR TOM FELTON RETURNS TO THE ROLE OF DRACO MALFOY— ON BROADWAY It is rare for an actor to revisit a role. But in a completely different medium?

Rarer still. Tom Felton, who rose to fame as Draco Malfoy in all eight Harry Potter films, will make wizarding world history this November when he steps back into Draco’s robes—this time as an adult—in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway. “It’s very much a ‘pinch me’ situation,” Felton says. “I keep thinking I’m dreaming.”

The blockbuster play picks up 19 years after the events of the final story, with Draco and Harry as grown men navigating fatherhood and a new generation of wizards. “Getting a chance to step back into Draco’s shoes now that he’s a father in this new story—it’s very exciting,” Felton adds. And fans clearly agree, as Felton’s run in Cursed Child is gearing up to be one of the hottest tickets on Broadway this season. Will you be there when Tom Felton takes the stage, or are you “Scared, Potter?”

SIGHT SEEING

See It All From Unique New York Perspectives New York is a vertical city and there’s never been a better time to experience it, with multiple world-class observatories opening up the city’s skies. See the Empire State Building for yourself and you’ll know immediately why the skyscraper is one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. The 86th floor is home to the Observation Deck, open to the air with views that go on for miles. For a downtown take on altitude, look to One World Observatory. It’s the tallest building in the hemisphere, offering 360° immersions

in the landmarks of downtown. From a climate-controlled perch you can enjoy unique perspectives on New York Harbor, the Statue of Liberty, historic bridges, and even out to New Jersey. The Western Hemisphere’s highest outdoor observation deck, Edge, stands atop the city’s newest neighborhood, Hudson Yards. Step out onto the triangular deck and you’ll be 100 floors above the ground with miles of visibility in every direction. Edge will also thrill you with its glass floor, providing views of the High Line below your feet. Across

Edge

SEE THE SKY

There are five amazing observation decks in the city, including the open-air vantages at Edge and the iconic viewing platforms at the Empire State Building. To escape the cold, One World Observatory is a great option in Lower Manhattan.

ONGOING An icon of New York, the crown of Lady Liberty is once again open to visitors. To reach it you’ll need to make a 162-step climb (there is no elevator), but you’ll be amply rewarded with an entirely unique perspective on the city. Along a double-helix spiral staircase you’ll see the intricate engineering that keeps the statue standing, capped by 25 windows overlooking New York Harbor. Statue City Cruises is the only way to get here, leaving from the southern tip of Manhattan for a short but spectacular trip through the harbor. On Liberty Island you can also explore the Statue of Liberty Museum. Breathtaking views join a $100 million destination that includes memorabilia, an immersive film, and up close looks at the statue’s original torch, a 3,600-pound copper flame. Ellis Island is just a quick hop away, serving as both a historical monument and a tribute to the perseverance of generations of immigrants—some 12 million newly minted Americans passed through here. Visitors today can explore the Ellis Island National Museum of Immigration, inside a restored French Renaissance Revival / Beaux-Arts structure completed in 1900.

BROADWAY BroadwayYour Way: A Visitor’s Guide

By Griffin Miller

January is a great time to be in New York, with Broadway’s scorching reputation the perfect antidote to the winter blahs. Escape the cold for a red-hot ticket to one of the city’s must-see performances. An added bonus: the Big Apple is no longer overflowing with holiday visitors, so scoring fabulous seats to plays and musicals is way less stressful—with way more available options.

40 Everything To Do NYC

Bottom line: skip the diet and make your #1 January resolution to indulge…in the most popular and award-winning shows on Broadway!

ON THE ROAD WITH OLIVER AND CLAIRE A unique romance in an unprecedented Broadway musical—these are just a couple of the many, many elements that make 2025’s Tony-winning musical Maybe Happy Ending an extraordinary must-see. Starring Helen J Shen

and Darren Criss (above, L to R) as retired “Helperbots” Oliver and Claire, relegated to play out their dwindling battery charges in a senior android complex, the show gently draws audiences into their story—how they meet, connect, and find the courage to embark on an enchanted road trip to see lightning bugs on South Korea’s Jeju Island— all unfolding on the bittersweet outskirts of mortality.

rehearsal for “Beat It” that he joins in progress. Instantly, our focus is drawn only to him, from his stylized moves and look to his stage charisma. In a 5-6-7-8 flash, we’re suspended in time. Yet once the number concludes, the first glimpse of Jackson’s flip side becomes clear: he is scrupulously hardwired for perfection.

Becoming the adult Michael (the show also features two younger versions) is equal parts pedal-to-metal and rewarding, according to Matte Martinez, who stepped into the role last summer. FYI: playing MJ on Friday and Saturday nights through February 15th is Roman Banks, who’s mastered the role both on tour and in Australia.

Continued from p. 41

MUSICAL MARVEL, MISSIONARY STYLE If you’re up for a show with astronomic Tony theatre cred (nine altogether, including Best Musical), look no further than The Book of Mormon at Broadway’s Eugene O’Neill Theatre. What starts off with a trumpet blast of biblical proportion, soon moves into “Ding, dong! Hello, my name is Elder….” and a stage teeming with grinning, freshly scrubbed Mormon missionaries awaiting their first assignments. Of them, Elder Price (self-assured with his heart set on Orlando, played by Kevin Clay) and Elder Cunningham (gung-ho, giddy, and up for anything, played

by Diego Enrico) find themselves paired up and heading to a dodgy Nigerian village, where locals feast on blasphemy with a side of religious anarchy.

The production’s reputation for tonguein-cheek chutzpah comes as no surprise as its creators are Trey Parker and Matt Stone (South Park), and Robert Lopez (Avenue Q), a trio known for supersmart take-no-prisoners humor. (“I may be biased,” says Clay, “but we are still the funniest show in New York. Fight me.”) Even so, The Book of Mormon is also

In an authors’ note, writer/composers Will Aronson and Hue Park describe the way two robots might actually remind us what it is to be human. “An LP-player, a firefly, a human being—we all have a beautiful moment here in the universe, where we light up the darkness or make the air vibrate magically.”

JUKEBOX NIRVANA Mamma Mia!, the multi-Tony-winning hit that ran a staggering 14 Big Apple years, is back with a dynamite company of actors—most making their Broadway debuts. The revival arrived last August, hopped up on nostalgia for both the ‘90s and the ‘70s, boasting a feel-good score from ABBA’s Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus. Plucked from the band’s massive roster of hits, the show’s score includes everything from “Honey, Honey” to “Take a Chance on Me.” And while the temptation to sing aloud with these infectious numbers is strong, hold out for the finale when you’re invited to vocalize to a megamix of “Dancing Queen,” “Mamma Mia,” and “Waterloo.”

DON’T STOP ‘TIL YOU GET ENOUGH It’s broken the box office record at the Neil Simon Theatre 11 times…collected four Tony trophies in 2022… features a book by Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage and a score comprised of more than 25 of the King of Pop’s greatest hits. MJ the Musical is, without question, a musical theatre force to be reckoned with—one that takes audiences inside Michael Jackson’s creative process, artistry, and backstory, tracking his childhood as the Jackson 5’s lead singer.

Using a documentary crew capturing the days leading up to his 1992 Dangerous World Tour as framework, the show launches us into Jackson’s world via an ensemble-heavy

ROARING GLITTERATI It begins with one of Broadway’s most beautifully haunting and fleeting moments: a man in silhouette, mesmerized by a distant green light across a waterscape… a nanosecond broken by a crashing wave…and he’s gone. So goes the intro to Jay Gatsby, the central character of the explosively glam musical The Great Gatsby.

The show that’s been transporting audiences to the Jazz Age since its debut stars one of theatre’s most sought-after leading men, Jeremy Jordan, who recently returned to the character he originated in 2024.

Enigmatic and compelling, Gatsby flaunts his acquired wealth to the hangers-on and wannabes who party at his posh Long Island mansion while pursuing his lost love, Daisy Buchanan, played by Aisha Jackson.

Their world is one of drama and decadence, awakened through breathtaking sets and projections, Linda Cho’s Tony-winning costumes, dynamic choreography and music, and one of Broadway’s most tantalizing supporting casts.

a show with plenty of heart—and a “Spooky Mormon Hell Dream.”

whose street thief antics have him wildly dashing and leaping across the stage.

“Aladdin is, quite honestly, a universal show,” notes Scott, who’s also performed Genie in L.A., London, and Australia. “I’ve seen the same audience response all over the world. It’s the whole exciting theatre experience: joy and love wrapped up in a big, beautiful Broadway musical.”

GENIE CONFIDENTIAL If Broadway musicals were an Olympic sport, Aladdin would scoop up the gold, no contest. A fabulously choreographed sprint from opening number to grand finale, neither the show nor its indefatigable cast slow down for a nanosecond.

In fact, they seem to relish the pace set by Genie (Michael James Scott)­—particularly in the killer production number, “Friend Like Me”—and Aladdin (Ainsley Melham), Right: Ainsley Melham shines in Aladdin’s title role.

WITCH CRAFT Magnificent special effects and supersized sorcery have made Wicked—Broadway’s euphoric prequel to L. Frank Baum’s “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz”—a cult favorite for over two decades. An inspiration and catalyst for the current blockbuster film adaptations, the stage musical achieves something cinema can never offer: living, breathing, up-close-and-personal theatre.

Based on Gregory Maguire’s best-seller,

Wicked at the Gershwin Theatre stars Ethiopian-American actress Lencia Kebede as studious/green Elphaba and Allie Trimm as fashionista party girl Glinda. If you’ve seen the movies—or if you’re new to the story— you’ll absolutely want to immerse yourself in this long-running hit that has audiences cheering, eight shows a week.

stirring storytelling, and pure visceral joy. By the time it officially opened on November 13th, it was already a word-of-mouth success.

Today, critical accolades and savvy casting have ensured the production’s legendary status. Overall, much of the show’s power to cross generational lines comes from visionary director Julie Taymor, who also designed the costumes and collaborated with Michael Curry to create the show’s creature-defining masks and puppets. Clearly, you don’t have to be a kid to be wowed by the powerhouse creativity behind every character’s distinctive design.

“young master Malfoy” to life in the original film series, Felton—in his Broadway debut— now embodies Draco as an adult single dad dealing with the Time-turner escapades of his young son, Scorpius (Aidan Close)—whose BFF partner-in-mischief just happens to be the son of Harry Potter (John Skelley), Albus (Emmet Smith).

Picking up where J.K. Rowling’s books and the films left off, it’s 19 years in the future when Scorpius and Albus first meet on the Hogwarts Express, going on to encounter familiar characters and get caught up in any number of incredible special effects.

Always a super-hot ticket, Felton’s appearance (through May 10th) has definitely made scoring seats for HPCC a challenge—but not necessarily impossible.

Still, if you have a flask of Felix Felicis sitting around, this would be an opportune reason to use it.

ACCIO, DRACO! Sorcerers, witches, muggles, and probably a magical creature or two have been storming NYC’s Wizarding World citadel (aka the Lyric Theatre), anxious to catch Tom Felton (right) in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Having brought the character of 48 Everything To Do NY

i NYC FOOD HISTORY: PIZZA

Pizza was, of course, invented in Italy, but New York has been putting its own distinctive spin on the pie since 1905. That’s when immigrant Gennaro Lombardi opened his eponymous shop in Little Italy. Lombardi’s still serves up some of the city’s best pizza, thin crusted in the Naples style with a light char thanks to the house’s red-hot coal-burning oven. In 1929, Lombardi’s said ciao to employee John Sasso, who left to open his own place on Bleecker Street. You can still get a classic coal-oven pie there, or at the newer John’s of Times Square, which adds stained glass atmosphere inside a converted church.

For a more modern slant, check out Una Pizza Napoletana on the Lower East Side. The Neapolitan pies here were awarded best in the U.S. by 50 Top Pizza in 2025 (and best in the world for 2024!).

NYC TRANSPORTATION

FUN FACTS A New York City taxi makes almost

1,400 trips a month. • If you laid out NYC’s

subway tracks end to end you’d reach Chicago. • NYC Transit rides every year. • The

buses give 480 million

subway fleet travels 365 million miles a year. • No surprise

here: the Times Square-42nd Street subway station is the city’s busiest. It’s the gateway

55 million rides a year. • Ever wonder why city buses don’t take paper money ? NYC Transit uses giant vacuums to empty fareboxes, which would turn that cash into confetti. • By law, there are exactly 13,587 taxis in NYC. But good luck catching to

even one when it rains.
