Neil Patrick Harris & David Burtka Couple Up at 'Torch Song' Broadway Opening Night!

Neil Patrick Harris is all smiles as he hits the red carpet with his husband David Burtka at the opening night party for the revival of Torch Song held at the Helen Hayes Theatre on Thursday (November 1) in New York City.

The happy couple stepped out to show their support alongside Vanessa Williams and her husband Jim Skrip, Becki Newton, Justin Mikita, Cody Simpson, Matthew Broderick, Anna Wintour and Bernadette Peters.

Also in attendance were the stars of the play Michael Urie, Mercedes Ruehl, Ward Horton, Roxanna Hope Radja, Michael Hsu Rosen, Jack DiFalco, playwright Harvey Fierstein and the show’s producer Eric Kuhn.

Harvey first played the lead role of Arnold Beckoff, a gay drag performer in a tempestuous relationship with his bisexual, closeted lover. The play won Harvey two Tony Awards — both as playwright (for Best Play) and for Best Actor. It was produced throughout the country and also turned into a film in 1988 starring Harvey, Matthew and Anne Bancroft.
