Actress and television personality Rosie O'Donnell brought son Parker Jaren, 13, to opening night of the new Broadway musical Billy Elliot in Manhattan on Thursday night. Rosie, a veteran of the Great White Way herself, funds a foundation, Rosie's Broadway Kids, which gives underprivileged New York City school children access to music and dance education.

Rosie and her wife, Kelli Carpenter O'Donnell, are also parents to Chelsea Belle, 11, Blake Christopher, 8 ½, and Vivienne Rose, who turns 6 in two weeks. The couple was married in San Francisco in 2004, though same-sex marriage licenses granted in the city were later voided by the California Supreme Court.
