Here’s Rent producer Jeffrey Seller with Nicolette Hart, who plays Maureen in the hit musical.

Also celebrating at the party were two more of the show’s leading ladies, American Idol finalist Tamyra Gray and former Tarzan star Merle Dandridge.

…along with the lovely Kelly Karpacz, who plays a variety of roles in the show.

Broadway stars Alexa Vega of Hairspray and Gerard Canonico of Spring Awakening were also among the party’s celebrants.

Legally Blonde star Laura Bell Bundy has been delighting the crowds with her country music show at Birdland, featuring selections from her new CD Looking for a Place Already Gone. She’ll be back on August 20 for another go-round!

Here’s Bundy with her talented back-up singers — and Legally Blonde co-stars —
Tracy Jai Edwards and Natalie Joy Johnson. Yep, they’ve all got three names.

At her opening night performance on July 23, the audience included famed songwriters Chuck Steffan and Ron Abel.

There was lots of excitement at the new Broadway production of Grease last week when Billy Bush, host of the NBC reality series Grease: You’re the One That I Want came backstage to visit with director Kathleen Marshall and the show’s big winners — and new Broadway stars — Laura Osnes and Max Crumm.

Finally, the cast of Spring Awakening trekked over to Tony’s DiNapoli after their August 2 performance to watch as a portrait of stars Lea Michele and Jonathan Groff was hung on the restaurant’s Wall of Fame.
