On the43rd street side. You pass right in front of it if you line up along 43rd street to go into the theater."
Thanks! When facing the 43rd street public entrance, is the stage door on your left, or your right?"
It will be to your right as you face the entrance. No way to miss it - very long barricade and I will echo the comments above that it is a very pleasant and easy stage door experience. I saw it yesterday and stage doored - the audience members/stage doorers were polite and the actors, while clearly exhausted and signing quickly, still stopped for those who also asked for selfies and were very kind. No Jamie or Noma but many others came out.

Can anyone confirm whether the cast comes out the stage door and signs autographs on Thursday nights after the single performance? I know on one-show days they only come out after the second show and it seems like the messages on this thread are a little conflicting as to whether they come out on Thursday nights also. I’d appreciate any guidance. Thanks!

Since you specified that Jamie and Noma didn’t come out, does that mean that Poppy and Alex did?

No, sorry - wasn’t thorough in my post but no they didn’t, either.

My husband and I will be there on Sunday, July 22.

Okay, thanks! That appears to be the norm to have all but Jamie, Noma, Poppy, and Alex come out to sign regularly.

Just to add my experience...
We saw the show on Thursday and Friday. There is no stage door on Thursday after Part 1. On Friday after Part 2, about 12 actors came out. Ron (Paul Thornley), Album (Sam Clemmett), Scorpius (Anthony Boyle), Delphi, Professor McGonagall, Amos Diggory/Dumbledore, and a number of ensemble members whose names I can't remember now. EVERYONE who came out was extremely friendly and gracious, talking with the fans, asking what parts of the show they liked, taking selfies when asked, etc. It's a very long barricade so there was no pushing. As others have reported, Jamie, Noma, Alex and Poppy did not come out.

Poppy came out when I went approximately two weeks ago, but Anto did not. Alex, Jamie and Noma did not as well.

I am going July 15th a Sunday and super nervous that Sam or Anthony will be out or won’t stagedoor. I don’t know what to do.

Coming in July and seeing the show on a Sunday. Worried Sam and Anthony wouldn’t be in or won’t stagedoot. Don’t know what to do.

Not much to do, really. They will or won't be in the show (probably in) or will or won't come out to stage door (probably will).

Stop worrying about things not in your control?

I think they normally both do. The show is long and exhausting, it's incredibly generous of them to come out to begin with. Most people here have reported that they both came out.

Anthony and Sam have had good attendance and I’ve only heard of a handful of times that they didn’t stage door. The show is fulfilling cast-signed playbill requests through the mail though so if it’s just the autographs you want, all the leads signed them (including Jamie).

Send a letter and a SASE to the stage manager and ask nicely for a cast-signed playbill.
Leading Actor Joined: 5/10/18
What’s a SASE? And how do we know the stage manager or there address?

You just address the stage manager of a show as simply the ‘stage manager’ and send the letter to the theater’s address.

So to clarify, there usually isn't a stage door on Thursdays after part 1 only? I went to a 2 show day Sunday, and missed stage door to catch the train. Was hoping to catch it after Frozen tomorrow. Thanks thread for all this info!!

I staged door twice. Once after I saw it on a Sunday and also that next Wednesday. The first time only a few came out. Paul, Poppy, Anto, Edward (Amos, Dumbledore), Joey (Victor Krum, etc.) and Lauren (Moaning Myrtle, etc.) came out. When I staged door Wednesday way more people came out. Paul, Poppy, Anto and Sam staged door and then a lot of the ensemble. Everyone from Sunday did Wednesday except Joey. I was surprised Sam didn’t Sunday because I heard he stage doors more than Anto, but it was amazing. They will sign anything, they will take pictures, they are all so sweet. They will also answer what their favorite spell is. The stage door is also nice because it is very long so people don’t have to pile on top of each other. As for the theater goers and people standing in line at the stage door, Sunday everyone was so sweet and helping each other, Wednesday there was a few rude people. But honestly one of the best stage doors I have been too!
Did Stage door last night: Paul Thornley, Katie Kreisler, Poppy Miller, Anthony Boyle, Joey Labrasca,Lauren Nicole Cipoletti, Joshua De Jesus, Jack Hatcher, Susan Heyward, Edward James Hyland and Alanna Saunders all came out and signed and posed for pictures with everyone. It was a very chill stage door because of how long the barricades go. Everyone was very friendly and chatty. Alot of them complimented me on my slythrin necklace. Fun stage door!
