I know I've banged on about it before, but @lostdogdance are the most extraordinary company. It's not just dance, & not punctuations of dance like songs are used in a musical; it's like an extention of their words & bodies & sounds & physical CGI & it's funny & heartbreaking.
We had a lovely day yesterday seeing some art, some artefacts, a brother and his lions, and then the most beautiful theatre (@lostdogdance, you didn't let me down). My feet are sore and my eyes are sleepy, but it was good 🥰
