Nicest Broadway Peformers — Page 2

I have never waited at the stage door but i meet people on buses and subways for some strange reason.
Gary Beach- Three times on the bus once on the street. A great guy! Kerry Butler- At the Drama Desk nominations party and awards.
Marissa- same
Stephanie D'Abruzzo- During the summer.
John Tags- At a concert he is very sweet
Margo Martindale- On Broadway and she is a doll.
Jeff Marx- At the show- He is a nice guy and easy on the eyes!

I met Gregory Hines and he was very nice. I needed a cab was in a rush and he hailed me a cab. He was a gentleman.

That is impressive Mistress.
I APPLAUD HER! Oh and i forgot there is an actress Mrs.Cohen who is the housekeeper on Sex and the City i met her on the bus and she was a doll. She was also at the Drama Desk awards and we chatted on the bus.
You would be surprised how many celebs take mass transit.

It was really funny. And the cab DIDNT stop. That was even funnier.

Yeah, Mary is definitely one of the nicest I know.

I always enjoy going to the Broadway Flea Market, most of the actors come out and are very gracious with their time.

Peter Lockyer, Christopher Mark Peterson, Ben Davis. They always took time to talk to me and my friends before and after shows

Some might respect other people's privacy when living their normal everyday lives. I know there are some people out there that just have to say "hi" to someone they recognize as famous. It's unfortunate.

And lo and behold... "CELEBS" are PEOPLE - they take mass transit, they eat in restaurants, they go to the bathroom, they buy postage, they walk their dogs. AMAZING and AWESOME.

I have to agree. I think 'putting on the face' and signing the playbills is just a really big part of the job. I'm not saying that some of these people aren't genuinely nice, but sometimes it's hard to tell, because if they're smart, they're going to treat their fans well and meeting and greeting at the stage door comes as part of the territory, really. I mean, it's clearly not required, but as I said, sometimes it's hard to differentiate whether it's sincere or a big act.


Master, I'm with you there. How many have invited you to spend the night? (Or how many of you hope and pray everytime you see Marc Kudisch that he'll invite you over? Or am I alone on that one? Heh.)

Which ones have done something for you other than sign a playbill and chat for a moment? ...Something out of the ordinary that they didn't need to do? I think those are the ones who deserve mention.

I agree. Henry Winkler is an incredibly sweet guy. I was at the closing night of a show and was backstage when I saw Henry Winkler there on his way out. I told him how much I enjoyed his performance in The Dinner Party and he thanked me and gave me a kiss on the cheek *blush*

There are a TON of nice actors (which most of you have listed), but seriously, as I say "Acting is politics." Most actors know that they have to play nice and all to every single person who comes up for them. Putting on a face.

And I know THOSE, and a couple of truly nice actors.

But you can never be too sure with people who portray other people and pretend on stage 24/7.
