Protesters Don't Dampen Katie's Broadway Debut!

Katie arrived at the theater for her big Broadway debut early yesterday, with adorable little Suri in her arms. But she wasn't the only one who arrived early -- thirty or so "Anonymous" protesters showed up with masks and signs outside of Katie's Broadway debut in All My Sons to protest her Scientology. They made a point of saying that they were not protesting Katie or the play, but using the venue to protest the dangers of Scientology.

But despite the ruckus outside, she still put on an "extraordinary" performance -- at least according to her biggest fan: Tom!

Tom gushed to the AP via Yahoo's OMG about Katie's debut, but he wasn't the only celeb in the audience. Dustin Hoffman also attended the sold-out premiere.

But the bigger show might have taken place outside of the theater -- with protesters (some in V is for Vendetta masks) holding signs reading "Free Katie", "Scientology is a Cult!", and "Save Katie, Keep Tom!", they certainly drew a lot of attention!
