Hi, I'm Nadia Brown and I play Rose Granger Weasley in Harry Potter and the
Cursed Child on Broadway and welcome to Spell That Spell!
We're testing Broadway's Cursed Child cast spelling abilities. The aim of the game is simple,
spell the spell correctly and win points for your house. There are bonus points available if you can
describe what the spell also does. Are you ready? I'm ready. Okay, welcome and
let's go. So our first contestant Bubba Weiler and you're part of what house? I'm humbly
representing Team Hufflepuff. Oh, yes, same. And we also have Nick Podany. Hi!
Yeah I'm representing Gryffindor. Amazing, okay. Bubba are you ready? I'm ready.
The first spell is Expelliarmus.
Expelliarmus. E-X-P-E-L-L-I-A-R-M-U-S.
Expelliarmus. Woo, he got it, amazing! That was really great.
One point for Bubba. Can you say what it does? Wait I can say what it does for bonus points.
It knocks your opponent's wand out of their hand and well then you get it, you get the wand. Sometimes.
Perfect, okay and Nick? Yes. Are you ready for your
word? Yes. Okay, Sonorus. S-O-N-O-R-U-S.
Ding ding ding! One point for Nicholas and do you know what it does? Sonorus it's a really loud
sound. Not quite, it magically magnifies one's voice. Ludo Bagman, Sonorus... All right, Bubba.
I'm surprised you didn't know that. Yikes, Hufflepuff coming with the shots, okay. And your next word is Avada Kedavra.
Okay, Avada Kedavra. A-V-A-D-A-space-K-E-D-A-V-R-A. Avada Kedavra. Ding ding!
This is rigged. So now that's three points cuz you got that bonus point. Yes
that's right, I believe, that's right a lot of points. Can you tell us what Avada Kedavra
does? It kills someone. Yeah, the killing curse. Four points! Okay, Nicholas
are you ready? Yes. Rictusempra. R-I-C-T-A [buzzer] What, really? It's a U.
Rickta? Oh, Rictusempra. Okay Tt's the tickling charm... causes extreme tickling sensation that disables a victim.
Okay, Bubba! Levicorpus. Levicorpus. L-E-V-I-C-O-R-P-U-S. Yes, ding ding ding! Winner. Now what does it do? It lifts somebody's
body into the air, by the ankle. Okay, that is specific and
correct but unfortunately I cannot, I think you can make a comeback. Ready? Riddikulus. R-I-D-I- [buzzer] I'm so sorry.
Are there two Ds? I'm gonna steal! R-I-D-D-I-K-U-L-U-S. Ding ding ding! Yikes.
Seven. Now, can you tell us what it does? Yes, it makes um like a really funny thing
happen to make a boggart go away. Oh okay thank you.
With the Boggart I will give you the point so that's eight?
Nicholas, come on, you got it. Okay, ready? Episkey. A -
Episkey is spelled the following way... E-P-I-S-K-E-Y [buzzer]
Wait. What. Why? S-K-I? No. What was it? K-E-Y. I'm so sorry. You were so close. Do you want to steal and
tell us what it does, can you do that or no? Do you know what it is? It fixes bones.
Oh. Can I give him a point for knowing what it
does? He's just... You're already winning come on.
Okay great now. It's rigged. This is a hard one ready? Let's see if I even
pronounce it correctly. Sectumsempra.
Sectumsempra. S-E-C-T- Can
you say one more time? Sectumsempra. Okay Sectumsemprs. S-E-C-T-U-M-S-E-M-P-R-A. Ding ding ding!
Nice. That is now nine, can you tell us what it does?
Nope. Can you tell us what it does? It cuts a body into shreds like lots of bleeding.
Okay I'll give you the point for that because it's a spell to causes
deep gashes. When does that happen? Half-Blood Prince. Harry
he reads it in the book and then he does it on Malfoy - you're dad - oh that's
right. Definitely a point for knowing. Boom. Okay, Descendo.
Descendo.
D-I-S- [buzzer] Is it E? I shouldn't answer. You want to steal? D-E-S-C-E-N-D-O. Descendo. Ding ding ding! Okay, can yu tell us what it does?
It brings something down that's up high.
Yes, absolutely. Eleven points! Nicholas, oh no you just went. That was your steal so now it's your turn.
Okay you've got to get everything right from here on out. Okay I'm ready. You got
it. Okay. Ready? Confundo.
Confundo. C-O-N-F-U-N-D-O. Confundo. Ding ding ding can you tell us what it
does? Yeah it confuses somebody. Ding ding! 13 I believe. Yeah that's right.
Alright you got it, our last word. This was not fair.
No I don't think it was very fair at all! I'd say it was uneven. Petrificus Totalus.
Petrificus Totalus.
Pa! P-A- [buzzer] Trif! Wait. Was it an E? What is it?
Just let me have this one. I'm going to, yep start over.
Petrificus Totalus.
Yep. I don't know what the first vowel is.
Okay Petrificus Totalus. P-E-T-R-I-F-I-C-U-S-space-
Totalus. Total. T-O-T-A-L-U-S. Yes! He got it, ding ding ding. No I didn't. You did, you literally did. Okay well thanks. Okay, can you tell us what it does? It binds
someone totally completely and Neville falls over. Amazing yes.
