Does anyone know if Liev Schreiber, Frank Langella, and Michael Sheen sign at the stage door after matinees on 2-show days?
Also, of the current Broadway bunch, I've heard that Vanessa Redgrave, Angela Lansbury, Marian Seldes, and Eve Best all don't sign after matinees -- are there others who should be added to that list?

keep that as a general rule.... almost no one signs after a matinee. if you want an autograph you're gonna have to go to a night show or come back later.
I second the general rule of don't expect actors to come out to sign after the matinee.
I can add that I saw Michael Sheen coming out of the stage door when I was there two weekends back after the Saturday matinee. I'm not sure if he signed for anyone -- he seemed to just be going about his business so I didn't want to bother him.

i saw the poor people waiting for him to leave the Longacre Theatre Saturday afternoon in the blazing sun. i was across the street with Little Edie hamming it up. but yes, him coming out would be a nice treat. though it would probably mean we'd lose him off Broadway to do some ABC show or somesuch...
When I saw Talk Radio back in February, Liev came out to sign after a Wednesday matinee. He took a looooong time though (I think he was doing an interview, but I am not positive about that), he was probably close to an hour, but he signed and stayed and chatted with the few of us who waited.

Thanks, everyone! It sounds like there is at least the possibility that Liev Schreiber and Michael Sheen will come out after the matinee. I have to see either one or the other show at the matinee in order to fit everything in, but it sounds like either one might work out.

Julia Roberts boxed herself in a corner a little bit by only signing for people who had a ticket for that particular performance. While an effective method of crowd control, it did kind of make it difficult for her to skip the stage door at all.
