As mentioned earlier, the cast of Xanadu.. the touring cast of Wicked, (especially Clifton Hall)
I was most shocked by Megan Mullaly, while in Young Frankenstein. I heard from fans who had seen the show that she either didn't come to the SD or was rude. The night I went happened to be one of the coldest nights of the year, snowing, raining and a HUGE line of devoted fans out the door and wrapped around the theater. She waited until EVERY fan had an autograph and a picture.
Laura Bell Bundy was deathy ill when I saw her performance last year, and the guards announced she wouldn't be coming out. She did however come out, whispered to her fans, because her voice was SHOT, signed autographs but refused to take pictures. She was still very nice and through a muffled voice, told me she liked my dress and thanks for coming.
The cast of Farnsworth Invention was incredibly nice, too. Hank Azaria, especially.
Andddd... my favorite Stage Door experience with a nice actor.. had to be the incredibly adorable Trevor Braun, who was an understudy of Flounder in Little Mermaid. He told every fan that he was 8 years old, he appreciated them coming and offered to sign EVERYTHING they had. My friend was holding a baseball hat and a book and Trevor said "It's so nice to meet you. Would you like me to sign that hat and book?" We cracked up. (Not to his face, obviously.) But he is a sweetheart.
