Menzel, 53, and Walker, 15, wore matching black outfits for the occasion. The actress and singer wore a one-sleeved gown, pairing it with a black-and-white purse, while Walker opted for an all-black suit paired with black-and-white sneakers.

Menzel shares Walker with ex-husband Taye Diggs. The two welcomed Walker in September 2009.

Despite their split, the former couple have remained close and committed to co-parenting together.

In an interview with "Good Morning America" this June, Menzel opened up about "passing the torch" to the next generation of "Wicked" stars.

"We're extremely proud of what we were part of creating," Menzel said at the time. "To see it grow through all of these iterations, and to know that we're passing the torch to Cynthia and Ariana, who it's in such beautiful hands, and they're going to do a wonderful job, and to know that it's going to reach an even wider audience than ever and tell this story about real female empowerment is special."
