The 77th Annual Tony Awards held in New York City became a family affair for Angelina Jolie and her daughter Vivienne Jolie.
The mother-daughter duo not only turned heads on the red carpet with their stunning outfits but also celebrated a monumental night for their Broadway production, ‘The Outsiders’.
The production won four major awards, including Best Musical. This event also marked a significant personal change for Vivienne, who notably dropped her father’s surname, Pitt, from her Playbill credit.
Red Carpet Glamour
Angelina Jolie, 49, and her daughter Vivienne, 15, coordinated their outfits beautifully for the event.
Vivienne wore a striking suit consisting of teal-colored trousers, a matching vest left unbuttoned, a white shirt underneath, a teal bowtie, and black-and-white sneakers.
Her golden blonde hair fell naturally past her shoulders, parted in the middle, complementing her casual yet chic look.
Angelina, on the other hand, looked elegant in a lighter teal velvet gown with a fitted corset-styled bodice and a full skirt that swept the floor.
She accessorized with a matching shawl, dainty gold earrings, chunky bracelets, and rings on each hand.
Her hair, parted in the middle, cascaded in light waves past her shoulders, adding to her sophisticated appearance. Together, they paused for photos and shared laughs, showcasing their close bond.
Triumph of ‘The Outsiders’
‘The Outsiders’, the Broadway musical co-produced by Angelina and Vivienne, had a stellar night, winning four awards including Best Musical.
The musical, based on S.E. Hinton’s 1967 book and the 1983 film, garnered 12 nominations overall. Angelina took on the role of producer, while Vivienne served as a producer’s assistant, making their involvement in the project a family affair.
The production’s success at the Tony Awards was a proud moment for the duo. They joined fellow producer Matthew Rego on stage as he accepted the Best Musical award.
The musical also won Best Direction of a Musical for Danya Taymor, Best Sound Design of a Musical for Cody Spencer, and Best Lighting Design of a Musical for Brian MacDevitt and Hana S. Kim.
This recognition highlighted the team’s collective effort and the significant contributions of both Angelina and Vivienne.
Personal Milestones and Changes
Vivienne’s decision to drop her father’s surname from her Playbill credit was a notable moment. Listed simply as Vivienne Jolie, this change follows similar decisions by her siblings, reflecting ongoing family dynamics.
Last November, her sister Zahara also dropped the Pitt surname during her induction into the AKA sorority at Spelman College, introducing herself as Zahara Marley Jolie.
Vivienne’s name change came amidst the backdrop of her parents’ ongoing legal battles. Angelina was recently ordered by a judge to disclose all NDA agreements she signed with third parties over an eight-year period.
Additionally, their son Pax has publicly criticized Brad Pitt, calling him a ‘world-class a**hole’ and a ‘despicable person’ on social media.
Their daughter Shiloh, who turned 18 in May, also filed to legally change her name to Shiloh Jolie.
A Night of Celebration
Despite these personal family challenges, the Tony Awards night was a celebration of artistic achievement and family unity for Angelina and Vivienne. Angelina expressed immense pride in her daughter, sharing how Vivienne’s passion for theater led them to their involvement in ‘The Outsiders’. “My daughter Viv loves theater.
She appreciates all theater but she certainly knows what she feels close to and what she responds to,” Angelina explained.
Their collaboration on ‘The Outsiders’ allowed Angelina to learn more about Vivienne’s interests and insights. “For me, it was a moment to learn more about Viv, not me thinking of becoming a producer,” Angelina noted.
Their teamwork and mutual respect for the project’s creative process underscored the night’s success.
Conclusion
The 77th Annual Tony Awards marked a significant evening for Angelina and Vivienne Jolie. Their coordinated appearance and the success of ‘The Outsiders’ highlighted their strong bond and shared passion for theater.
Vivienne’s decision to drop her father’s surname added a personal dimension to the event, reflecting ongoing changes within the Jolie-Pitt family.
As they continue to navigate their personal and professional lives, the Tony Awards night stands as a testament to their resilience and dedication to the arts.
