Re-imagining Musicals
This was honestly such a fantastic experience and I think what sparked my obsession with everything V&A has to offer! The Victoria & Albert Museum is known to celebrate the arts & fashion and never shies away from an opportunity to stage lavish exhibitions such as this one.
I went with my younger sister, Kez and her love for theatre combined with our mutual love for the arts just made the experience ten times more exciting. What I loved most was how we got exposed to the world of theatre in its entirety. From the music production to the costuming, it was amazing to get a glimpse into the amount of hard work that goes into staging some of our most beloved shows.
Omo, people get talent oh!
I was so inspired and left with a deeper level of respect for every individual who works tirelessly behind the scenes to bring these shows to life.

I think this exhibition was what you'd expect from an average exhibition in terms of opportunities to sit down. And one thing about me, I'm gonna find somewhere to sit down & drink some water! Pacing myself & staying hydrated while undertaking any and every activity is so important as a sickle cell warrior, especially when these activities involve a lot of walking.
So I was glad to see that seating was dotted around the exhibition space - particularly when there was video content being shared. Also, it didn't take too long to get around the entire exhibition which meant that my energy levels were still in a good place by the end of it and so for these reasons, I'd rate this exhibition a solid 6/10 as it pertains to mobility.
