Would feel much better about the Beatles connections when we talk about Lord Woodbine. who has recently just been commemorated with a mural in Liverpool and also interesting to see that in 2028 they're going to be extending the Beatles museum

I went to see the stage performance 🎭 of Marie and Rosetta @beverleyknight it was amazing 🤩 I knew very little about this very talented lady. So was very impressed to learn about one of our unsung artist.

Thank you so much for sharing this. Such a powerful reminder of the hidden influences that shape our society today. I learnt about Sister Rosetta Tharpe through @beverleyknight’s portrayal of her in Marie & Rosetta. What an icon!!
