Amber Riley cried. And cried. And cried.

I am all cried out. My eyes are almost swollen shut from all the happy tears I cried today lol thank you so much for all the congrats! Honestly this has been a very unexpected night. I was so nervous and forgot to thank SFP staff, Nick Finlow our amazing MD, the band that takes my breath away every night and always manages to make me make stank face because of how funky they play, Our awesome stage managers, the entire crew, and the Savoy Theatre for letting us into their home! I am so filled with gratitude I could burst. Thanks for coming to see Dreamgirls and if you haven’t seen it yet, everyone in this show is phenomenal, please come! We would love to see you there! Blessings
