The Saturday performance at the State Theater in New
Brunswick was attended by doctors, first responders and nurses
who took care of Morgan at the Robert Wood Johnson University
Hospital after his accident in June 2014.
"These people are heroes and I love them all from the bottom of
my heart," he told People. "To be standing on stage with the
people that saved my life in the audience was an overwhelming
experience."
"I will never fully be able to thank the doctors, nurses, first
responders and everyone else that got me back on that stage
enough," added Morgan, 47, who donated proceeds from the
sold-out show to the hospital.
After the show, Morgan invited the hospital employees in
attendance to come to his dressing room for pictures and hugs,
People reported.
The former "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock" cast member
suffered a serious brain injury and broken bones in the 2014
collision that killed a fellow comedian. Their minibus limousine
was in a crash with a truck.
