Beyoncé proved that she and her Destiny’s Child sisters are true survivors with a warm post of appreciation shared on her Instagram Saturday morning.

The “Cowboy Carter” star posted a slide show featuring photos and video from the Broadway premiere of the new “Death Becomes Her” musical Thursday night in New York, starring Bey’s former Destiny’s bandmate Michelle Williams.

The carousel of content showed that Beyoncé and her mother Tina Knowles were present at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater for the show, along with Kelly Rowland, who rounded out the Destiny’s Child trio in its final formulation.

Videos and photos showed the three divas smiling in the theater with Williams in costume. Snippets also showed her bowing during her curtain call.

“Death Becomes Her” is based on the classic 1992 cult comedy film directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn and Bruce Willis.

The film follows rival socialites who each discover a secret potion that promises them eternal youth – with some darkly comic catches.

In the new musical, Williams plays Viola Van Horn, based on the mysterious character immortalized in the film by Isabella Rossellini, who gives the women the potion.

“Death Becomes Her” the musical has earned rave reviews and also stars Tony-nominated Broadway performers Megan Hilty and Jennifer Simard.
