CAA Takes Over Maxwell for the Tonys

by David Litwak | 2025-08-09

The night before the Tonys, CAA transformed our Tribeca home into Broadway's most intimate celebration.

It's become a tradition now — CAA's annual Tony party, thrown twice at Maxwell and counting. The kind of night that reminds you why we built this house in the first place.

Cocktails flowed through our Garden Room while the DJ kept the energy alive in our Grand Room — both spaces working in harmony to hold the night.

They made the space theirs. CAA logos reflected back from our mirrors, custom light-up signage dotted the rooms, and our usual rhythm shifted to accommodate their agents alongside Broadway's finest.

The guest list read like a who's who of screen and stage: Adrian Brody moving through conversations, Jon Hamm at the bar, Alexander Skarsgård, and Chloe Grace Moretz. Alex Edelman, the standup comedian whose wit fills rooms, held court somewhere between the cocktails and the DJ.

Laverne Cox, Zoey Deutch, and Andy Cohen kept the energy high. Even Ariana DeBose, Rachel Zegler, and Nathan Lane made appearances

CAA brought their full roster — documentary filmmakers, actors, and the creative minds who shape what we watch and how we think. The kind of eclectic mix that makes Maxwell come alive.

We readjusted everything. More seating, more space, and more room for the conversations that happen when creative minds gather in one place. Maxwell ran the bar, but CAA ran the night.

Held on June 9, 2023, it marked one of the industry’s most anticipated off-calendar celebrations

It's not about the names on the guest list, though those don't hurt. It's about watching our house become exactly what we envisioned — a place where industry and intimacy meet, where the people shaping culture come to celebrate it.

The mirrors reflected more than logos that night. They reflected what happens when you build a home worth celebrating in.
