Saw #Bacchae at @nationaltheatre.org.uk tonight. Epic & brilliant. Now going home the long way to listen to as much of Black Messiah as I can.
Nah, I’m not crying. Why do you ask? Oh yeah I always clean my contact lenses this way during Really Love. Honest.

I’m seeing #Bacchae tonight at the @nationaltheatre.org.uk I’m a bit worried.
