Polo Bar rolled out the red carpet for the cast of the hit Broadway play “Thoughts of a Colored Man” on Thursday night.

Performers Dyllón Burnside, Luke James, Bryan Terrell, Bjorn DuPaty, Tristan Mack Wilds, Forrest McClendon and Da’Vinchi arrived late to the impossible-to-get-into celeb fave and were treated like royalty, we’re told.

“They closed the joint down. It was a fun night. They love Ralph Lauren,” an insider told Page Six.

The group arrived at around 11 p.m. — after a post-performance onstage auction for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS — and were “ushered to a prime table. The restaurant sent over a round of drinks on the house,” according to the source.

Wilds, who takes on the character and emotion Anger in the play, was also celebrating the release of his new song “Simple Things.”

The Broadway play by Keenan Scott II has attracted celebrities in the audience such as Vanessa Williams, Angela Bassett, Andy Cohen, Ledisi, and “Insecure” actress Yvonne Orji, as well as Broadway press agent Irene Gandy.

“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast has also popped in to see the show at the Golden Theatre. The play will likely have a storyline on the Bravo show since “Housewife” Kandi Burruss is one of its producers.

“This is the first time you’re going to see an all-black male cast, all-black production team, black director [and] black writer putting a show on Broadway,” Burruss told Page Six at a cocktail reception back in September.

Meanwhile, theatre, media, art and music bigwigs continue to pack the Polo Bar.

David Gregory was spotted there earlier in the night. And artist Kehinde Wiley, Paul Anka, and music man Clive Davis dined there the night before. Davis was with socialite pal Nikki Haskell and “everyone was coming over to say, ‘hi,’” a spy said.
