Social Media Roundup: Theater, Game Shows, and Baseball Heartbreak
Welcome back to MuggleNet’s Social Media Roundup! Keep reading to find out who tested their knowledge in front of a live studio audience, who’s been showing their support for #TeamKevanna, and who had their heart broken by the LA Dodgers.
Daniel Radcliffe has been getting rave reviews for his performance as Jim in the Broadway production of The Lifespan of a Fact. The play’s official Instagram account shared this great photo of the cast meeting actresses Amy Poehler and Rachel Dratch.
Staying with theater, the London production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child posted a throwback to when Tom Felton visited the play in August of this year. While we knew that Tom met with the two Malfoys in the play (Draco and Scorpius) on that occasion, it now appears that there was a fourth Malfoy in attendance.
Draco meet Draco, meet… Draco. @JHowardActor (London) and Tom Wren (Melbourne) met Tom Felton (Harry Potter films) backstage at the Palace Theatre! All we’re missing is @alexpriceactor (New York). #CursedChild #DarkArtsMonth pic.twitter.com/XcPjGzaqHo

Three Draco Malfoys in one room? Someone’s been messing around with a Time-Turner!
In another surprise for this roundup, sports lover Matthew Lewis has been showing off his newfound love for baseball on Twitter.
I started watching baseball four days ago but these Dodgers are killing me.

However, like all sports, baseball has its ups and downs, and unfortunately for Matthew, the LA Dodgers lost out on the World Series.
There was about 15 minutes in the 6th innings when this was totally ace. Now it’s the worst. Is this what being a Dodgers fan is normally like? Why did nobody tell me this? pic.twitter.com/czq0VnftqM

Elsewhere, Jessie Cave (Lavender Brown) took part in a celebrity version of the BBC quiz show Pointless, in which the aim of the game is to find the most obscure answers to general knowledge questions.
