Jennifer Lawrence, Dakota Fanning, & So Many More Attend 'Appropriate' Broadway Opening Night

There are so many stars in attendance at the opening night of Appropriate on Broadway!

Jennifer Lawrence, Dakota Fanning, and Rose Byrne are just some of the celebs who walked the carpet at the opening event on Monday (December 18) at the Hayes Theater in New York City.

Appropriate, written by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, stars Sarah Paulson, Corey Stoll, and Dakota‘s younger sister Elle Fanning. The play is billed as a “darkly comic American family drama” that takes place as the Lafayette family has returned to their late patriarch’s Arkansas home to deal with the remains of his estate. Long-hidden secrets and buried resentments can’t be contained, and the family is forced to face the ghosts of their past.

More stars in attendance at the event included Jim Parsons, Jane Krakowski, Amanda Peet, Zachary Quinto, Nicholas Braun, Rebecca Hall and Morgan Spector, and so many more.

Comedian Alex Edelman Gets Celeb Support at Opening Night of 'Just for Us' Broadway Run!

Alex Edelman has made his Broadway debut!

The 34-year-old stand-up comedian celebrated the opening of his one-man play Just For Us on Monday night (June 26) at the Hudson Theatre in New York City.

Alex got support from many celebs at the opening night following acclaimed international runs of the show in London, Edinburgh, Melbourne, Boston, and Washington D.C., as well as a six-time extended off-Broadway engagement across three venues in NYC.

Celebs in attendance at the opening included Rachel Brosnahan and husband Jason Ralph, Busy Philipps, Kathryn Gallagher, playwright Jeremy O. Harris, Mike Birbiglia, Kevin Cahoon, Alysia Reiner, Billy Eichner, Laura Benanti, Michael Urie, Miriam Silverman, Helene Yorke, Regina Spektor, Krysta Rodriguez, Micaela Diamond, Gus Birney, and Louisa Jacobson.

The play “is an exploration of identity and our collective capacity for empathy. In the wake of a string of anti-Semitic rhetoric pointed in his direction online, standup comic Edelman decides to go straight to the source; specifically, Queens, where he covertly attends a meeting of White Nationalists and comes face-to-face with the people behind the keyboards. What happens next forms the backbone of the shockingly relevant, utterly hilarious, and only moderately perspirant stories.”

Just For Us is running through August 19.

Oscar Isaac & Rachel Brosnahan Glam Up for the Gala Opening of Their Broadway Play!

The official opening night of Broadway’s The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window was last week to make the eligibility cut-off for the 2023 Tony Awards, but a gala opening was just held to celebrate in an even bigger way!

Oscar Isaac and Rachel Brosnahan glammed up for their red carpet appearance at the James Earl Jones Theater on Thursday night (May 4) in New York City.

Oscar, who is making his Broadway debut in the play, was joined by wife Elvira Lind. Also spotted on the carpet were co-stars Gus Birney and Miriam Silverman, as well as producer Jeremy O. Harris.

The classic play by Lorraine Hansberry invites us into Greenwich Village in the ’60s, crafting a razor-sharp portrait of a diverse group of friends whose progressive dreams can’t quite match reality. At the center are Sidney and Iris Brustein, fighting to see if their marriage—with all its crackling wit, passion, and petty cruelty—can survive Sidney’s ideals.

The show just received two Tony Awards nominations. Check out the full list here!

The production, direct from its sold-out run at BAM, is playing a strictly limited engagement of 10 weeks. Get tickets now!
