Y’ALL!!! I WONNNNN!!! 😭🎭🌹

I am an NAACP Theatre Award-winning Playwright!!!

AND... my producers won too!! Which means my solo show, @arosecalledcandace is now an NAACP Theatre Award-winning production. WOW. WOW. WOW. GOD!!! 🥹❤️

There is so much I want to say, but... I’m still trying to process it all. I truly did not prepare a speech because I genuinely had no expectation of winning. I was simply honored to be nominated alongside such incredible artists. So when they called my name... Y’ALL! All the nerves, disbelief, gratitude, joy, and shock hit me at once.

Looking back, there are a hundred more people I wish I had thanked... including my incredible co-director, @officialbernadettespeakes. Bernadette, if you’re seeing this, charge it to my head and not my heart. ♥️ Thank you for your brilliant collaboration, your vision, and the care you poured into this production. I’m so grateful to have shared this journey with you.

My deepest gratitude to the @naacptheatreawards @juveeproductions, @therobeytheatrecompany, my family, friends, and every single person who has believed in my story over the years.

This award belongs to all of us Roses. 🌹

God has carried me through one of the hardest seasons of my life, and this moment is a reminder that He is still faithful.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

My heart is so full 🌹🥹🏆
