Roundabout Theatre Company's production of Violet, starring Sutton Foster, Colin Donnell, Alexander Gemignani and Joshua Henry, just opened last night, April 20, 2014 at the American Airlines Theatre on Broadway (227 West 42nd Street).

BroadwayWorld's Richard Ridge was there for the opening night after party, where he got to chat with Foster about what she loves about the character, with Tesori about the show's long journey to Broadway; with Silverman about helming the project; and so much 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.
