Just two days before the 78th Annual Tony Awards, Creative Artists Agency (CAA) took over the West Chelsea hotspot Crane Club for their annual New York fête. With 42 Tony nominations across their clients—including actors, directors, designers, and writers—there was no shortage of cause for celebration.
But the evening wasn’t limited to Broadway. CAA clients from across the entertainment spectrum joined the agency’s New York team, including Joe Machota, Head of the Theatre Department, for a night that felt equal parts industry reunion and full-blown party.
Guests were welcomed with cocktails in the front lounge before moving into the main dining room, where DJ Daisy O’Dell set the tone and waiters circulated with sliders, skewers, citrus salad, and gnocchetti. Andrew Scott worked the room; Danya Taymor pulled her John Proctor Is the Villain collaborator Kimberly Belflower onto the dance floor; and familiar faces like Jon Hamm, Ego Nwodim, Adrienne Warren, Prabal Gurung, and Jeremy O. Harris made their way in.
