Broadway's 'King Kong' Stars Celebrate at Opening Night Party!

Eric William Morris and Christiani Pitts pose for photos at the opening night party for their Broadway musical King Kong on Thursday (November 8) in New York City.

The actors were joined by co-stars Erik Lochtefeld and Casey Garvin for the celebration after the performance.

King Kong is a $35 million production that is one of the most ambitious shows ever to be staged on Broadway. The Kong puppet is 20-feet-tall, weighs 2,000 pounds, and requires around a dozen actors to make him come alive.

“Watching [the puppeteers] work is fascinating, and the result is an inanimate object that feels alive — his facial expressions, his movements, the chest beating, that roar. At the preview performance I attended, the audience went, well, wild for it,” EW‘s theater critic wrote in her review.
