Feels like coming home being here among theatre and art community at the quite exclusive Alfred Fagon Award event, at the Dorfman Theatre, National Theatre, London. Fate seems to be pulling me back to creative arts which I've been thinking of a lot lately.

Last weekend I saw—and loved— Immediate Family , Written by Paul Oakley Stovall, and directed by the legendary Phylicia Rashad. It was hilarious, but it also had some poignant moments, and spoke about how family deals with revelations among its members. You've got to see it! #Blacktheatre
