This weekend brought out celebs to Broadway catching ALLEGIANCE with George Takei and Lea Salonga at the Longacre Theatre. Lucy Liu caught the show and joined cast members Michael K. Lee, George Takei, Lea Salonga and Telly Leung onstage for a photo moment. Also seen at performances were Glee's Jenna Ushkowitz (who appeared on the show with Telly Leung) and comedian Gilbert Gottfried.

Check out photos below!

Allegiance illuminates one of American history's lesser known chapters as it tells the story of Sam Kimura (Takei), transported back nearly six decades to when his younger self (Telly Leung) and his sister Kei (Salonga) fought to stay connected to their heritage, their family, and themselves after Japanese Americans were wrongfully imprisoned during World War II. An epic story told with great intimacy, Allegiance explores the ties that bind us, the struggle to persevere, and the overwhelming power of forgiveness and, most especially, love.
