In the turbulent summer of 2020, Oliver, a transgender man, and his eleven year old daughter, Georgie, have been in lockdown in their tiny apartment for three months. The only thing holding the two of them together? Harry Potter. So when J.K. Rowling publishes an essay spreading dangerous rhetoric about the transgender community, Oliver cannot imagine taking the books away from Georgie— or himself. He magically travels into Rowling’s past: first in an attempt to prove the author’s morality, and then to attempt to alter her history— and transform her into the brave person he desperately needs her to be.

With songs that explode events from Rowling’s life, and a book that incorporates verbatim text from her interviews, The Magically Re-Imagined History of J.K. Rowling explores the interconnectedness of art, artist, and audience, and the consequences their entanglement brings.
