Prior to her big opening night, the 21-year-old shared on Instagram:

thank you to all my loved ones for my flowers, texts and emails of support! My dressing room is beautiful because of YOU! I had such an overwhelmingly thrilling debut night. Broadway .. Wow. God is so good, I am so grateful to the The Lord for using me in such a way that I can freely express his love through my passion. Tonight, my career, my LIFE, is a testament to the power of love; of God's light! When you embrace him and who you are, when you spread love and kindness, when you stay consistent in your sincerity .. There's NOTHING you can not do. Nothing is easy, it will be difficult. But understand you are not alone, we are all together. thankful to all of those that made it to the show tonight and I love all of those that were praying for me where they were.


She also shared a photo collage from opening night with the caption, "Dreams do come true."
Yes, they do! And she is a true testament and awesome role model for young girls.
These photos remind me of Will Smith's quote from the "Pursuit of Happyness":
Don't ever let somebody tell you… You can't do something. Not even me. All right? You got a dream… You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period.

.... was a big orange tree that had the fruits almost everywhere on the tree and some that had fallen on the ground. And because it was dark, they just picked any one they stumbled upon or plucked any their hand felt. They got quite a number and returned to the hostel. They would eat them after school; that was how Tanko and Bawa usually did. They returned to the cathedral later with the other pupils for morning mass. Garba was sceptic about the masses because his father had specifically warned him not to follow the Whiteman's religion. Once, he had attempted to pray in his own religion and one boy had told him it was a big offence to pray in any other religion other than going to mass. Gradually, Garba was getting used to it. He knew his father would be alarmed. After mass, there was a morning service which Mr. Jacobs officiated as usual. He always used an interpreter at such services. "As children of God, created by God, you must not commit sins. If you steal, you have committed sin, if you tell lies, you are a sinner, and every sinner will be cast into hell fire," Mr. Jacobs said. The interpreter translated. The Whiteman went on and on. "This man is also a sinner," Tanko whispered to Garba who was sitting close by. "If you know you have sinned against God by ....
