Date play.
Kanye West and Julia Fox took in Jeremy O. Harris’ “Slave Play” on Broadway with a group of friends Tuesday before decamping to Carbone for dinner, a source confirmed to Page Six.
It’s the couple’s first date night in New York — where “Uncut Gems” actress Fox is based — following a few evenings out in Miami. The two and their pals took a black SUV from the August Wilson Theatre, where “Slave Play” is running, to Carbone after the performance. They were snapped by paps en route.
West, 44, and Fox, 31, were first seen out in Miami Saturday night dining at Carbone’s location in that city. A source told TMZ at the time that the date was “nothing serious,” and Fox, when asked by a paparazzo the next day if there was a second date in the cards for the pair, said, “I don’t know.”
But just a day later, Page Six exclusively broke the news that FoxWest (WestFox? It’s a work in progress) are in fact dating.

“They’re kind of kindred spirits, and it’s cool to watch.”
A third source also mentioned that rapper Future third-wheeled the couple at Makoto and hinted Kanyulia (that one’s on the back burner) could even become Instagram-official soon.

It remains to be seen whether West’s recent and very public pleas for reconciliation with Kim will affect his relationship with Fox.
Harris’ “Slave Play” set a Tony record this year with 12 nominations, including best play — though he wound up losing every single one. The show runs through Jan. 23.
