Who has been nicest to you at the Stage Door?

I found all the Les Miz actors very nice at the stage door. What other stars have been kind to you at the stage door?

The ENTIRE cast of SA. sweetest people ever :)

standouts were Johnny Gallagher (seriously, he basically hugs you as he takes a pic with you- thats how warm and wonderful he is. ANd he also talks to everyone for soo long), Jon Groff, and Pheobe Strole. But they ALL take tons of time to really make conversation with every single person!

And the whole cast of Wedding Singer was wonderful too! especially Felicia Finley, she is so incredible :P

aand Raul Esparza. He's SO wonderful and easy to talk to!

Megan Hilty was incredibly sweet, as was Josh Lamon (Wicked tour's "Boq"). I just met the Spelling Bee tour cast a week ago, and they were all so friendly.

Raul Esparza. He was absolutely amazing - so friendly and he gave me his full attention when we were talking.

Daphne Rubin-Vega was also excellent. And although it wasn't stagedoor, Adam Pascal was as well.

CHITA CHITA CHITA CHTIA

Second time meeting, in the lobby of the Merriam theatre in Philly, like a week ago.

We chatted about Gwen Verdon, she signed my CDs. She asked me for my name, and told me that I was "very sweet." And I told her I hoped to see her again sometime, and she told me she hopes for that too. It was a very special meeting, because it's not everyday a teenage boy starts a convo with her about Verdon.

Also, Luba Mason is an absolute doll. Brooke Shields is always VERY accomodating, but shy. For males that I met, Raul probally takes the cake.

Patti LuPone is also delightfully sarcastic and witty at the stage door. But could you expect any different?
