Corey Hawkins, Allison Janney and John Benjamin Hickey got a whole bunch of support at the opening night of their play, Six Degrees of Separation!

Oh, Hello co-stars Nick Kroll and John Mulaney, former Friends co-stars David Schwimmer and Matthew Perry, Andy Cohen, Teyonah Parris, Victor Garber and Samuel L. Jackson all stepped out to show their support for the Broadway revival held at the Barrymore Theatre on Tuesday evening (April 25) in New York City.

Inspired by a true story, the play, according to press the press release, “follows the trail of a young con man, Paul (Hawkins), who insinuates himself into the lives of a wealthy New York couple, Ouisa and Flan Kittredge (Janney and Hickey), saying he knows their son at college. Claiming he’s the son of actor Sidney Poitier, Paul tells them he has just been mugged and all his money is gone. Captivated by Paul’s intelligence (and the possibility of appearing in his father’s new movie), the Kittredges invite him to stay overnight. After finding him in bed with a hustler (Cusati-Moyer), their picture of Paul changes, and Ouisa and Flan turn detective trying to piece together the connections that gave him access to their lives. Meanwhile, Paul’s cons unexpectedly lead him into darker territory as his lies begin to catch up with him.”

Ellen Page Says Hollywood's Diversity Issue is 'So Upsetting'

Ellen Page has a laugh with her Talullah co-star Allison Janney and the movie’s creator Sian Heder on Saturday (January 23) at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.

The 28-year-old actress joined industry voices speaking out against Hollywood’s lack of diversity in an interview with The Wrap the day before.

“It’s awful, and I think what just happened in regards to the nominations two years in a row is a reflection of the industry itself, and the lack of diversity in all positions,” Ellen said. “I feel like we all have to be doing what we can to make a change, because we’re supposed to be telling stories that reflect human experience, and we can’t just be showing one group of people.”

Also pictured: Tallulah stars Charlotte Ubben, Tammy Blanchard, John Benjamin Hickey and Evan Jonigkeit arriving at the film’s Sundance premiere.
