Jolie, 48, beamed as she and Vivienne, 15, posed together on the red carpet outside the Bernard B. Jacobs Theater in New York City on Thursday, April 11.
The philanthropist opted for a two-tone gold ensemble for the big evening, wearing a cape draped over a floor-length metallic dress, and appeared to give a nod to it outsider‘ famous line: “Stay gold, ponyboy.” Paired with gold statement earrings, Jolie’s old Hollywood glamor – consisting of bouncy curls and red lipstick – complemented her look perfectly.
For her red carpet outfit, Vivienne kept it simple, wearing a blue button-down shirt and minimal makeup, wearing her brown locks down and tucked behind her ears.
Earlier this month, Jolie and Vivienne posed with the cast and crew backstage during the production’s preview. The mother-daughter duo both serve as co-producers of the show.
“Viv reminds me of my mother because she’s not about being the center of attention, but about being a support to other creatives,” Jolie said in a statement about her new roles in August 2023. “She takes theater very thoughtfully and seriously and works hard to make the best contribution possible.”
Adapted from SE HintonThe critically acclaimed novel of the same name The outsider follows Ponyboy Curtis (Brody Grant), his best friend Johnny Cade (Sky Lakota Lynch) and her “Greaser” family as they battle their rivals, the “Socs,” in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1967.
The musical was written by Adam Rapp And Justin LevineIt also features music and lyrics by Jamestown Revival.
To mark the coming-of-age story’s 50th anniversary in 2017, Hinton, 75, reflected on why the novel has remained a relevant piece of literature through the years.
“Anyone anywhere can identify with the in-group and the out-group and even feel like an outsider in their own group,” she said exclusively Us weekly. “No one in Ponyboy’s group liked reading books or watching movies as much as he did. The character Cherry felt the same way, but she couldn’t tell her friends how she felt because it wouldn’t be cool. Young people still identify with these emotions. That and the anger against injustice. That’s just how you feel at that age.”
The novel inspired a 1983 film adaptation directed by Francis Ford Coppola and stars Tom Cruise, Rob Lowe, Patrick Swayze, Ralph Macchio And Matt Dillion.
Lowe – who portrayed Sodapop Curtis in the film – previously said he was excited to bring the story to life on stage.
“I’m sure I’ll see it at some point,” he said exclusively Us weekly March. “It’s amazing that they do this. I mean, it makes perfect sense. I hope it’s great. It should be great.”
