Detallada muestra dedicada a la saga de tantos personajes, situaciones, escenarios y sobre todo un elenco de lujo del cine y el teatro ingleses, un clásico ya en el cine de aventuras, apoyados en la obra literaria de J.K. Rowling´s. Desgraciadamente, mucho de tiempo de espera (una hora en blanco en Ifema para la llegada de los convocados a la rueda de prensa) y mucho espacio antes de entrar a la exposición en sí. Unos medios poblados en gran parte por periodistas jóvenes y becarios, que iniciaron una interminable ronda de preguntas a los actores y responsables del evento. Habría que haber manejado mejor los tiempos y cortar tanta pregunta reiterada y el timing de algunos profesionales, que tal vez no tienen todo el día completo para dedicarle a esta exposición, que sin embargo, es fina, evocadora y sofisticada. Un perfume como de humedad aromatizada con musgo, nos hace olvidar sin embargo, los momentos de espera.

This autumn, Harry PotterTM
fans in Spain will have the chance to experience more from J.K. Rowling’s
Wizarding World when Harry Potter: The Exhibition comes to Madrid for the first
time. The exhibition will be hosted at Pavilion 1 of IFEMA, starting November
18 for a limited time of only 10 weeks. Madrid will be the only Spanish city
within the exhibition’s European tour. Tickets are on sale now at
www.harrypotterexhibition.es and ticketea.com.
Since its world premiere in
Chicago, the traveling exhibition has received more than 4 million visitors and
included stops in Boston, Toronto, Seattle, New York, Sydney, Singapore, Tokyo,
Paris, Shanghai, Brussels and The Netherlands.
In partnership with Warner
Bros. Consumer Products, GES created the 1,400-square-meter experiential
exhibition, where visitors can enjoy dramatic displays inspired by the Harry
Potter film sets and see the amazing craftsmanship behind authentic costumes,
props and creatures from the films. Sold Out and Encore are partnering with GES
to present the exhibition in Madrid.
“Harry Potter: The
Exhibition has been an enormous success all around the world. My granddaughter
insisted we visit the exhibition in New York and I was struck by the beautiful
scenery and amazing artifacts. I knew then I had to find a way to bring it to
European fans and I am delighted to now be part of the team presenting it in
Spain,” says Pascal Bernardin of Encore. “We are very proud to present Harry
Potter: The Exhibition for the first time in Spain. We are sure of the
magnificent welcome the exhibition will have in Madrid,” added Rafael Giménez
of Sold Out.
“We are thrilled to
continue the European tour of Harry Potter: The Exhibition in the beautiful
city of Madrid,” said Eddie Newquist, chief creative officer for GES. “We hope
everyone will have a chance to visit this expertly curated exhibition, allowing
them to relive their favorite moments from the films.”
From the moment guests
enter Harry Potter: The Exhibition they are immediately drawn into the world of
Harry Potter. Guests are greeted by an exhibit host who sorts several lucky
fans into one of the HogwartsTM houses and then leads them into the exhibition
where their journey to favorite scenes from the Harry Potter films begins. The
exhibition features settings from the films’ most popular locations—including
the GryffindorTM common room and dormitory; classrooms like Potions and
Herbology; and the Forbidden Forest—which are filled with thousands of
authentic props, costumes, and creatures used in the filming of the iconic
series.
“Harry Potter: The
Exhibition continues to be a record-breaking success, and we are thrilled to
bring this experience, together with our partners, to Spain for the first
time,” said Peter van Roden, senior vice president, global themed
entertainment, Warner Bros. Consumer Products.
In addition to the
beautiful environments and displays, there are several interactive elements.
Guests can enter the QuidditchTM area and toss a Quaffle ball, pull their own
Mandrake in the Herbology classroom vignette, and even tour a re-creation of
Hagrid’s hut and sit in his giant-sized armchair.
The exhibition in Madrid
will be open from November 18 through January 28. Timed-entry tickets are
required, and the last entry will be one hour before the closing of the
exhibition. Tickets to the exhibition are on sale at
www.harrypotterexhibition.es. Please check the website for opening dates and
hours.
An exclusive audio tour is
also available, providing behind-the-scenes insight into the making of the
Harry Potter films, with commentary from the producers, prop designers, costume
designers and creature designers.
