"War Paint" Stage Door

Not the same, but when I saw the show in Chicago, Patti and Christine both left out a separate door than all the other actors and went straight into their cars without signing anything or greeting anyone. This could be different given the different setup at the Nederlander, though! The Goodman had a much more convenient "escape route," so to speak.

Not a personal experience, but a friend posted a photo she took with Patti at the stage door the other night, so it appears she has come out at least once.

When I stage-doored after Patti and Mandy's show, Patti signed the apple that had been tossed to me in "Gypsy." She's been hit-or-miss miss both in terms of whether she comes out and how much she wants to interact. She straight-up yelled at me when I SDed her after "Gypsy" at City Center when I tried to take a picture of her signing.

I have nightmares to this day.

Bump. I'm sure the stage door threads annoy some people here, but I'd also like to know the odds of meeting Patti and Christine at the stage door. I'm going Sunday, May 21st, and I'm hoping that since it's a one show day and there is no show the next day, they might be more inclined to spend a few minutes at the stage door.

How crowded has the stage door been?

I'll be seeing War Paint this week. One of my friends who saw it last week said only Patti and Christine came out after the evening show. After the two left in their cars, everyone waiting was told that all the other actors had left which included Douglas and John who play the husbands. Is there another exit where the actors can leave instead of the stage door at the Nederlander which is the same as the main public entrance. Thanks for any help. Just wast to be prepared when I see the show and if possible ask the four main characters to sign my playbill.

Thanks for your help. That was my first post. The information shared here is valuable and the shared experiences can help everyone in their theatre-going experiences.

Saw the show yesterday and was really disappointed in it. Two and a half hours about cosmetics! Didn't bother to stage door

I saw the show on Friday, 9/1 and both Patti and Christine signed. The only other person who signed that night was Erik Liberman.

I have tickets for the 11/1 matinee for my daughter's 12 birthday gift. I know War Paint may be a little "old" for a 12 year old but she loves musical theater and I wanted her to have a chance to see these amazing performers (we're also seeing Cats at 7:00 - thanks TDF!). Does anyone know if Patti or Christine ever come out to stage door after Wednesday matinee? I'm guessing they don't but that would be such a treat!

I saw it, come from away and dear evan hansen this weekend. I really liked War Paint. Patti's accent was a little thick at times but it was still good. She had trouble walking and leaning on tables. I asked if she comes out at the matinee and was told she doesn't because she is in so much pain. I thought maybe she would come out Sunday since there isn't evening show but on Sunday she came out and went straight to her car without saying anything to any of the fans. I was told it is because of how much pain she was in and that her understudy was even told to get ready to go on Sunday because she couldn't walk. At the curtain call Christine helped her walk off the stage.



The sets and costumes were great. I really liked it.
