There was a Hogwarts reunion at Broadways Golden Theatre on Nov. 7 when Daniel Radcliffe nipped backstage to congratulate former Harry Potter co-star Rickman on his Main Stem return in Seminar. The actors, who were all smiles in Rickmans dressing room after the show, are both currently gracing the Great White Way at least until Radcliffe bows out of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying on Jan. 1.

Radcliffe picked a good date to visit. Thursday evenings performance of Seminar the shows first press night before its Nov. 20 opening was canceled at the very last minute because Rickman was suffering from an acute respiratory infection. (Its the first time in the actors storied career that hes ever missed a stage performance.) In Seminar, the 65-year-old star plays a cantankerous literary genius hosting a private seminar for four aspiring novelists in the play and obviously does a lot of talking (as well as spitting out choice insults). A rep for the show tells EW that we expect to resume performances tonight!
