My Simba… Clifton Oliver… Rest in peace.
Joyous, beautiful, effortlessly amazing at everything… I will always remember the sound of your laughter and the mischief in your eyes. Falling in love with you was the perfect Broadway debut. We were silly, giddy, and great together. You are the reason I made it to Broadway, after years of auditioning for The Lion King and everything else… They finally chose me because you were their Simba, and they thought I was perfect for YOU. I am forever grateful, and I am forever your Nala…
“If he feels the Love tonight
In the way I do
It’s enough for this restless wanderer
Just to be
With you…”
My heart is aching missing you.
#RIP my friend.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!!!
She is proud to tell the world that she is 80 YEARS YOUNG! She says it feels the same, but I say… she grows more beautiful every single day! She believes living by faith is the way to move into this platinum age. She believes increased fragility is not a problem. It’s purpose is to prove that there is STRENGTH in weakness. It reminds her to trust, and to keep leaning on The Lord, who brought her this far, and will never fail her!
I love that she is always making discoveries, and sharing them with everyone who will listen!
We thank God for her every day! So celebrating her today is an extra special gift! #allhailthequeen!

Received the gift of LIGHT at my concert in #Chautauqua last night. Thanks to an absolutely beautiful audience and the greatest band in the world. It was a whirlwind trip, straight from tech rehearsals at The Delacorte, to this glorious amphitheater upstate. I was exhausted, and anxious about having enough to give at this show… God is amazing. When we feel weak, we are stronger than ever leaning on Him.
We sang this original song #Twinkle at the encore, and the phones started waving in the air… Had me feeling like #Beyonce or #TaylorSwift! I will be playing this video to help me through the rest of tech week and through the blessed opening night of #TheTempestPW on Sunday! Hope to see you there… phones in the air!

Joining my NIECE @kaylagoldsberry to congratulate EVERYONE in the class of 2023!
“When it felt like everything had been taken from us… We got to know ourselves… and learned what brought us joy and what mattered to us most…
We will continue to ask why and what if…
We will remain curious, resilient, and dauntless!”
-Kayla Elise Goldsberry
