Ana Gasteyer, Wayne Knight, Marc Kudisch, real-life couple Chris Diamantopoulos and Becki Newton, and the rest of the company of the City Center Encores! production of Girl Crazy celebrated their cast party Nov. 22.

The post-show celebration was held in the mezzanine of New York City Center.

Tony Award winner Jerry Zaks staged the 1930 classic musical, which featured choreography by Warren Carlyle and musical direction by Rob Fisher.

Girl Crazy has music and lyrics by George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin and book by Guy Bolton and Jack McGowan. According to Encores! notes, "The Gershwins' fanciful Depression-era musical of 1930 is the tale of a sophisticated New Yorker (Diamantopoulos) marooned in a dusty Western cow town with no one who understands him but the Yiddish-speaking cabbie (Knight) who brought him there and no one to love but the only woman (Newton) within 50 miles."

Here are some photos from the evening:
