Katie Holmes kicked off previews for her Broadway debut in Arthur Miller's All My Sons on Thursday - along with some anti-Scientology protestors.

Around 20 demonstrators (many in masks) staged a protest, shouting "Free Katie" and holding signs that screamed "How many more must die?" outside the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre in New York City.

We are not boycotting Katie, we are not boycotting the play - we are protesting Scientology. It is evil. Scientology kills people. It follows you home at night. It is perverted," a demonstrator insisted.

But Holmes and husband Tom Cruise seemed undeterred.

Moments before the curtain went up, Cruise was all smiles as he entered the theater, greeting theatergoers, taking pictures and clapping.

He hugged Dustin Hoffman, who was sitting a couple rows away, drawing another cheer inside the theater.

"It was really powerful, I'm so proud," Cruise was overheard saying after Holmes' performance. (After her performance, the two dined at the stylish Angus McIndoe restaurant near the theater.)

See Tom and Katie's most romantic moments.

While reviews likely won't come in until the play officially opens October 16, a writer for New York's Daily News says Holmes "held her own" among Broadway veterans John Lithgow, Dianne Wiest and Patrick Wilson.

"Holmes exuded the same lovable charm she did as Joey Potter on TV's Dawson's Creek," according to the Daily News. "She shed the baggy T-shirts and jeans she has been sporting on the streets of New York for the past several months of rehearsals, revealing a rail-thin physique in '40s-style sundresses."

Look back at Katie Holmes' fashion hits and misses.

    Why do they always have the same creepy smile on their faces in every single photo? Is it programmed in to them from their cult? They look like they have been hypnotized and brainwashed! "Im so happy...I'm so happy...I'm so happy..."

    ok, I think the rat should just go away. and I don't understand why her movies are so so so so bad and why she can't act in them. and why people are sying she did well in the play. well maybe they feel sorry for her, because people she didn't do that well to me in the play she look like she really didn't know what she was doing, and the way she moved on stage was ba

    let em be, we are so busy nowadays, worrying and fearing what's next. STOP! Think about what you can do to help others that don't have it as good as you do. What have you done lately to "Pay-it-forward" like the book "21 Days To Creating Your Dream Life" talks about? Try doing one thing every week, eventually everyday, to change the perception

    About the comment of Wild Willo, I think you are the freak. There is nothing wrong with 2 year olds drinking or sucking milk from a battle. Do you have kids? (I hope not) because you are nuts!
