Just watched Shifters 10/10 show that had me gripped on another note theatre with a black majority crowd is actually so fun

Just finished watching this play and I was absolutely blown away by it!! #Shifters

I saw Shifters last night and it was a perfect piece of theatre. Might be the best play I’ve ever seen
