That’s right, the wizarding world won basically all of the awards with Harry Potter and The Cursed Child taking home an incredible record-breaking nine awards! Amber Riley’s West End debut paid off with a trophy for Best Actress in a Musical for Dreamgirls, and her co-star Adam J Bernard also snatched a trophy for his scene-stealing role as Jimmy Early. Amber took to Instagram to share a heartfelt post about her win.

The evening was full of glitz and glamour, and that was just the guests at the show. In attendance were Star War‘s John Boyega who will soon appear in Woyzeck, the Tony Award-winning superstar Audra McDonald (see her now at the Leicester Square theatre) and Game of Thrones stars Kit Harrington and Rose Leslie to name just a few famous faces.

Gary Barlow and Tim Minchin, both their shows The Girls and Groundhog Day were nominated, hung out in a dressing room. #TheatreBesties

The School of Rock kids also got a special pre-show moment with Hamilton‘s Lin-Manuel Miranda and we’ve never been more jealous of anyone!

It looks like whether performers were winners or not this time around, everybody had an amazing night.
