What I did was there is a cafe right across the street from the stage door. And I had a cup of coffe by the bar in the window (so i was looking out) and so like two hours later when he came out and nobody was ther i went up to him and stagedoored him. He is so nice, and his dauters were there. And he is the best daddy in the world.

Girl #1: (during curtain call) "I think he just looked at me."
Girl #2: "really?!"
Girl #1: "yeah omg he just looked at me again, and he SMILED!"
Girl #2: "omg you should stagedoor him"
Girl #1: "are you sure? I've never stagedoored anyone before.."
Girl #2: "don't worry, I promise it'll be a good experience"
Girl #1: "are you sure it won't hurt? and what if it means more to me than it does to him?"
Girl #2: "none of that matters, come ON you get the chance to STAGEDOOR him and you might pass it up because you're afraid?"
Girl #1: "oh he just smiled at me again, that's it...I'm gonna stagedoor him so hard. LET'S GO!"

Posted: 12/17/05 at 6:40pmHe came out when I saw it in October, he signed, but didn't take pictures. However, it was pouring rain and I didn't ask him (it felt kind of rude in the weather to make him stop, and it was my first stage door ever and I was nervous). Greg Jbara, on the other hand is the biggest sweetie when someone wants a pic. He has no problem stopping. I say ask. The worst he can do is say no. Good luck! Post the pic if you get one.

Posted: 12/17/05 at 7:15pmI stagedoored Norbert last month, after a Wed matinee show, there were like 8-10 people there, and no security person. I didn't take a pic, but he did take a pic with the "OMG I loved you in Wicked" screaming fangirls that were there.

Yeah. They were just kinda young and annoying in general (no offense to the young on this board, but: the proper response when an actor comes out of the stage door is not "OMG now that my hair is all messed up, of course now you come out to take pictures with us. Hold on let me check my makeup." Seriously.), and then the Wicked line killed it.
Although at least they were able to talk- I am crushing so hard on Norbert right now and managed to get out "um...yeah...um...so...Ireallyloveyourshow," or something like that, in between remembering to breathe. :)

" I went on Nov. 18. He was out very quickly (the time it took me to get from my seat, buy a poster, and to the stage door). He was very nice and signed my L5Y thing and took a picture. He was in kind of a hurry because he had to catch a train or something. But there was no one there that said we couldn't take pictures with him. "
Ahah! I saw you! I was the first one to take a picture with him, I was wearing a green sweater.I remember you scrambling for your cd. I was standing next to you.

Posted: 12/17/05 at 8:30pmNorbert may be good at stagedooring, but nobody stagedoors like Greg. Once you've stagedoored Greg you're ruined for any others....
A click for life.

Posted: 12/17/05 at 9:25pmSirLiir, I am pretty sure it was Norbert's because he was walking right toward it and the door to backseat was open with some guy standing next to it. John hadn't even come out the stage door yet. As for the picture, I took it on a regular camera, not my digital, so I am not sure if I can scan it in. I'll try.

In reference to a bunch of posts ago about Norbert autographing a $20...
Well, I had Greg sign one of the imperial theatre fake bills used in the show, that's pretty cool
re: Norbert at stage door#41

I think it would be hilarious if someone had him sign a $20 and then spent it...so it then circulated throughout the country in the monetary system.
Some fangirl in New Mexico working at a restaurant and getting paid with a $20 bill signed by Norbert Leo Butz? PRICELESS.

He's a great guy. Comes out almost everytime. He will sign stuff for you, maybe a couple of things if you ask. He signed two things for me without me even asking. He will tell you he cant take a picture with you but you can take pictures of him. he will chat with you while hes going around.
Good luck, have a great time seeing DRS!!

I was able to get this lovely picture with Norbert a couple months ago, and then took a couple bajillion more of him just standing, lol.
re: Norbert at stage door#44
Posted: 12/18/05 at 12:00amawww great pic!
re: Norbert at stage door#45
Posted: 12/18/05 at 12:00amPoor Norbert. You should see how I cringe when I see the "I loved you in Wicked" fan girls. I just want to grab my copy of L5Y and tell them to play that 100 times and then come back. I seriously dont know he puts up with it. Especially with the undiagnosed ADHD and all.
re: Norbert at stage door#46
Posted: 12/18/05 at 12:03amAdorable picture, DRS. And your shirts are similar!!

Posted: 12/18/05 at 12:07amAww, he took a picture with me in May. I didn't know he wasn't allowed. Ooops.
re: Norbert at stage door#48
Posted: 12/18/05 at 12:12amGreat, its allowed. It just seems to be on a contigency basis (ie no Kevin and the actors are up for it).
