Bringing my theatre loving kids to nyc for their first time in October. Seeing the King and I on a Saturday afternoon. If we stage door, what do you think will be the chances she will come out between shows? Just trying to plan for the rest of the day! And, of course, the girls would love to see her!
Perhaps someone who tried more recently can chime in, but I'll say that when I saw the show on a Saturday afternoon in May, she did come out and sign/pose for everyone.

She usually comes out between shows unless she has prior commitments. She's definitely missing a Saturday show in October though so check telecharge before you buy your tickets.
When I went there to buy tickets for Shows for Days I brought my King and I CD to have Kelli sign it later that night but when I passed by the stage door she appeared and signed autographs! So it saved me time waiting for her until midnight. So she did go out I think that was three weeks ago. But when I watched King and I last June she did not go out to sign that time but she was under the weather that week though. I was just happy she still performed for us that afternoon. She is such a gracious, warm and beautiful person inside out. One of the nicest Broadway divas today. Jessie Mueller, the cast of Fun Home, the great Queen Audra, Jonathan Groff, and Robert Fairchild are all gracious and attentive at stage doors. Beautiful Beautiful people.

I was there the most recent Saturday and she came out pretty quickly.

Chances are good, she came out quickly after a matinee that I attended.

I'm jealous of everyone who got to meet her after a matinee! I was there in June and only Ruthie Ann Miles came out - No Kelli, Ashley, Ken, etc. etc. etc. lol.
