Several celebrities have watched Samuel and the cast in recent weeks at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre.
Other notable names in attendance included Brandee Evans, Condola Rashad, Deborah Joy Winans, Taraji P. Henson, Giancarlo Esposito, and Natasha Lyonne.
This limited engagement on Broadway will run until January 29, and will be directed by Samuel's wife, LaTanya Richardson Jackson.
