Do DRS Wednesday matinees usually have understudies for the leads? I know you can not know until the day of, but does anyone know if there have been patterns or what is is usually like? Also, do the leads, such as Norbert and Sherie do stage door? Thanks so much...

I would say you have a 50% chance Norbert will be in on Matinee days. I suggest calling the box office as they often know in advance if he will not be in (I believe most of his absences are scheduled). Everyone else should be in (though Sara is off this weekend).
As for the stage door, they do come out. However, don't expect to talk to Norbert. He is on strict vocal silence after every show. Say hello to Greg. He always loves meeting new fans.

When I went on Kids Night back in Janurary
Norbert spoke. But was in a rush to catch his train.

Clumsy, back in January, he wasn't recovering from his vocal chord node. In fact, that was when the problem surfaced.

Oops! Sorry. Thank you, Sir Liir, I didnt realize.

From what I recall lotto is pretty easy to win, we won when we went in August but couldnt claim the tickets cause the person in our party who won was over at Avenue Q

The DRS lotto isn't hard to win but some days it can get crowded. Good luck!

Darn, I won't see Sara, I already saw her before but I love her, she's halarious as Jolene.

Sherie...never used to come out for matinees, so I'm pretty sure she still doesn't.

I think Norbert usually does, but he's usually the first one out and may be quick, but always makes sure to sign for everyone.

I think the chances of Norbert being in a Sunday matinee are as good as chances for him being in any performance.

Wiicked, I know what you mean! I missed Sara so much when she was in Grey Gardens. No one can play that role like her IMO.
