Following the performances, the play's star Wendell Pierce stopped the applause to let everyone know that it was a very special night. A surprise 24 Layer Chocolate Cake from The Strip House (André's favorite) was brought out by McKinley Belcher III along with a sash saying Birthday King and a Crown fit for the King! The sold-out cheering audience then joined in serenading De Shields singing Happy Birthday!
