I had the pleasure of meeting Jonathan Ritter(Boq u/s) and Brian Slaman , of the WICKED touring cast, last night and today. They were very nice and talked with me for a little bit after the show. So I thought I'd start a thread for some other nice ensemble members. What ensemble members have have you met that were nice, sweet, ect.?
On a side note....ensembles NEVER get the praise they diserve and I just wanted to say that, while the choreography is just ok, the ensemble for the WICKED tour dances wonderfully! They are all SO talented! Go see them/it if you can!

Joe Cassidy, Laura Marie Duncan, Dennis Stowe, Rachelle Rak, in fact pretty much the entire DRS ensemble, Rob Sapp(before he took over for Boq).*
I totally agree that ensemble members don't get the praise they deserve!
*Clarification: I didn't mean that Rob is no longer nice, he's always a doll. I meant that before he took over for Boq he's still in the ensemble. Now I can't consider him an ensemble member

EVERYONE from ASU!
Jan Neuberger (spl?) from Wicked was fantastic. They are all usually pretty nice, they just don't stop because few people know them. In my expirience, everyone I've stopped has been quite friendly and nice.

The entire ensemble of The Wedding Singer is filled with the nicest people I've ever met in my entire life. I took my 14 year old stepsister to see the show yesterday (her first show ever), and David Josefsberg (ensemble/"drunk best man" at the first wedding) took us backstage so she could see everything back there. It was a really memorable experience.

Definately the Dirty Rotten Scoundrels ensemble (especially Laura Marie Duncan, Sally Mae Dunn, Rachelle Rak, Rachel deBenedet, and Jacqueline Bayne). Haven Burton and Mayumi Ando from Rent are two of the sweetest girls ever. Also Bryn Dowling and Michelle M. Robinson from Chicago, and Renee Klapmeyer from The Producers.

Posted: 5/28/06 at 11:26pmEveryone from Lestat was great...I met Nikki, Colleen, Rachel, Megan, Chris and Tommar. Rock on to them...they're all fantastic!

Posted: 5/28/06 at 11:28pmOooh speaking of Colleen, anyone else think she looks insanely like Carolee Carmello? Despite knowing what Carolee looks like, everytime Colleen came out of the stagedoor, I'd doubt myself and ponder if it was Carolee, not that I went more than once, ahem...

Posted: 5/29/06 at 7:06amThe current ensembles of DRS & Rent are very nice, as is Robert Fowler (The Producers), and a lot more that I can't think of right now.

Renee Klapmeyer of THE PRODUCERS is very, very nice (and very, very hot)
and DRS and RENT have very nice ensembles
I've never really met mean ensemble members, but they are all very nice and very talented, and i think many times, as other people say, dont get the praise they should!

THE PRODUCERS gang has always been FABULOUS. The gang at DRS is really great. The PHANTOM cast is sweet, too.
Rachelle Rak is terrific! Great talent and reallt kind.

I second Lestat's ensemble!
Colleen, Megan, Nikki, Tommar, Rachel, Dominique, Chris are all especially sweet!
Phantom's cast is really sweet too!
Especially Kara Klein and Susan Owen!

Posted: 5/29/06 at 10:40amYes, Colleen Fitzpatrick was extremely nice at the stage door yesterday.

Posted: 5/29/06 at 11:50amWhenever I see Karmine she never stops to give autographs she just runs away.

Dios, someone with Wicked in their name shamed me, that's not good.
Anyway, I agree everyone at Lestat was fabulous, but I cannot possibly be the only one to see the resemblance...
#23re: Nice Ensemble Members
Posted: 5/29/06 at 1:13pmEveryone in the DRS incredibly sweet. And when Rocky Horror Show was on Broadway, holy crap, the ensemble members rocked. Went out to dinner with Jon Sharp, and Jason Wooten even called me on my birthday. Man, Rocky Horror had such an awesome cast.

Mayumi Ando, Marcus Paul James and Karmine Alers from Rent.
I can't think right now but I may add to this later.
