Deep trouble!
A star-studded party at the Chelsea Hotel for the buzzy off-Broadway play “Danny and the Deep Blue Sea” went a little off the deep end Monday night after aggressive selfie-seekers “taunted” Marisa Tomei.
Spies say event security repelled an iPhone-wielding horde with Tasers, and then someone in the crowd called the cops.
“Extra security was called to try to manage the swarm of fans who congregated outside the show’s after party,” said a source at the starry bash for the opening night of the play, which stars Aubrey Plaza and onetime “Girls” actor Christopher Abbott.
“Tensions came to a boiling point when Marisa Tomei exited the party at around midnight and tried to avoid the throng by bee-lining for her nearby car.”
We’re told that after the “My Cousin Vinny” star, 58, did not stop for photos, a few angry fans followed her down the block, “taunting her.”

“Security quickly stepped in, brandishing Tasers, which provoked at least one member of the crowd to dial 911,” said a source.
We’re told that when the police showed up, tempers had cooled, and Tomei was already safely on her way home.

Event organizers even invited the cops inside the party for drinks at the legendary hotel, but the on-duty officers politely declined, we hear.

Among the stars the “unruly fans” came out to glimpse were Dakota Johnson, Marc Jacobs, Mark Ruffalo, Patti LuPone, Natasha Lyonne, Michael Cera, Zawe Ashton, Ben Stiller, John Waters, Ethan Coen, Stephanie Hsu, Dan Stevens and Sam Rockwell.
A rep for Tomei didn’t get back to us.
Page Six has previously reported that Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid caught a preview of the revival at the Lucille Lortel Theater in Chelsea, as did Olivia Wilde.
Plaza has said she was living with LuPone while the show was in previews.
