    Would like to take a moment to recognize the interviewer here, she did a marvelous job conducting the interview, well spoken, good momentum, articulate, relevant follow-up questions and comes off sincere. Cynthia is radiant as always. Thanks for sharing.

      i now its so great to see an interviewer whop actually cares, and talks about the important things rather than just superficial and disposable topics alone like "whats your favourite colour, or food?" that you get with others. She always such a good job!

    I was the one who asked the last question (about her humility and staying grounded) and I loved her answer! "I feel like people in this position should lead by example: It takes nothing to be a good person, to be grateful for the good things you receive...When you demonstrate that you can handle the good things in a graceful way, it means you open yourself up to be ready for more".
    I cannot WAIT to see all of the great things that come her way! ❤️

    I was lucky enough to see this production with this GENIUS three times. Three different Shug Avery’s.....Jennifer Hudson, Heather Headley and Jennifer Holiday. This was a LIFE-CHANGING piece of art. I will never forget, the sadness, anger, tears, joy and hope I felt each time I witnessed Cynthia Erivo and her cast mates create MAGIC right before my eyes! I am so grateful I was able to take my best-friend and my husband to witness this masterpiece the third time. A complete gift, I will never take for granted. 🙏
