Amber Heard thanks fans after new career move as she leaves new life in Spain to return to US
Amber Heard has shared a celebratory snap posing with several bouquets of flowers after wrapping up her latest project.
The Texas-born actress, 39, has been back in the States in recent weeks to wow fans on stage with her performance in Jeremy O. Harris' new play, Spirit of the People.
Critics have been heaping praise on her for her portrayal of 'Genevieve' in the production, which she starred in alongside the likes of Ato Blankson-Wood, Zachary Booth, Brandon Flynn and Amandla Jahava.
Heard's earlier move to Spain's capital, Madrid, came in handy, given that the show is 'half in Spanish' according to playwright Harris.

He previously told Variety that he wanted to 'challenge' himself by incorporating the language into the stage show, despite not being fluent in it himself.
According to the official synopsis of Spirit of the People, the play 'confronts uncomfortable truths about land and what it means to destroy it'.
Heard announced she had signed up for the gig in June, telling fans that she was now 'in her theatre era' in an Instagram post.
Now, she has shared another social media post thanking her supporters for making her return to acting a 'beautiful' experience.
The London Fields actress smiled as she took a selfie front of numerous blooming bouquets in her dressing room.
She captioned the upload: "Thank you to all of my fans and supporters for making this already unforgettable weekend so much more beautiful.
"The flowers won’t last forever but the memories of all the love and support I received through this, will."
Heard has taken to the stage alongside the Spirit of the People cast over the last three weekends at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in Massachusetts.
Her performance as Genevieve was praised as 'eloquent and beautiful' by Vanity Fair's Juan A. Ramirez, who said she 'embodies the fragility and resilience of a classic Tennessee Williams heroine'.
Naveen Kumar from The Washington Post said the play 'brims with compelling insights on contemporary anxieties', while Jesse Green from The New York Times rated it 'five out of five beefcake stars'.
Fans also flooded the comment section of Heard's post with compliments.
One person said: "Congratulations on an incredibly successful run with your play! It was an honor and a privilege to have the opportunity to see you perform & I can’t wait to see what you do next!"
Another wrote: "We love and support you. Keep your head up high."
And a third wrote: "I wish I could see the play again! You were absolutely incredible in it. I hope you have a great final weekend with the festival!"
