The red carpet was hoppin' last night, as Broadways brightest stars gathered to celebrate the opening of Roundabout Theatre Company's production of Violet, starring Sutton Foster, Colin Donnell, Alexander Gemignani and Joshua Henry, at the American Airlines Theatre (227 West 42nd Street).

BroadwayWorld's Richard Ridge was on hand to chat with the evening's attendees before the curtain went up, and below, you can check out interviews with Adam Jacobs, Courtney Reed, Patti Murin, Laura Osnes, Andrew Rannells, Hunter Foster and more!

VIOLET tells the story of a young woman's quest for beauty amidst the image-obsessed landscape of the 1960s. Facially disfigured in a childhood accident, Violet (Foster) dreams of a miraculous transformation through the power of faith. Convinced that a televangelist in Oklahoma can heal her, she hops a Greyhound bus and starts the journey of a lifetime. Along the way, Violet forms unlikely friendships with her fellow riders, who teach her about beauty, love, courage and what it means to be an outsider.
