Twitter Roundup: A Play Is Born

by Claire Furner · December 22, 2013

Harry Potter is coming to the West End! But how did the Twittersphere react?

It's true????? Harry Potter, the play. Feeling a little light-headed right now. And wondering does our JKR EVER sleep???

— Evanna Lynch (@Evy_Lynch) December 20, 2013

Am I the only person who doesn't like the fact that JK Rowling is planning a new Harry Potter stage show 🙁 #Scrooge

— Rohan Gotobed (@Rohan_Gotobed) December 20, 2013

In quite the muted fashion it would seem! Clearly they were all too busy prepping for Christmas. There is of course a lot to do.

1. There’s decorating the tree,

and, if you can squeeze it in, (5) attending the Yule Ball.

how much fire whiskey have I been handed?! I'm going to be out cold in seconds, or dancing with my tie round my head.#TwitterYuleBal2013

— Chris Rankin (@chrisrankin) December 21, 2013

After all that, the Potter alumni still had time to squeeze in a few viewing/reading recommendations should you need some time out over the festive period.
