.....for the evening shows? what time do they usually come into the stage door?
Broadway Legend Joined: 6/25/03
Most probably come at between 7 and 7:30, just like all the other shows.
Idina arrives around 5:30, 6:00.
I would if i had to put on all that green
plus warm-ups too, its no wonder she arrives that early, its not even extremely early either.

But most of the others arrive between 7-7:30, right?
yeah most of the cast enters around there, i think idina's the only one who said she gets there hours be4 to warmup

Must be to warm up, because she said that her make up artist and herself can put on the green makeup in 20 minutes now.
yeah she said she gets there for warm-ups thats the early reason

She seems like a very dedicated person and someone that really enjoys what she is doing.
definitly, she said how she loves becoming elphaba every night and portraying her

She takes a 40 minute shower and does her vocal warmups while in there. I read that somewhere in an interview.
Oh! This explains it... I passed the Gershwin Friday night and there was a huge group of people waiting for people to arrive and they had seen everyone except Idina and were just waiting... She probably was there already! Oops.

so even kristin gets there around 7.00???
When I saw the show, Kristin arrived at 7:25. No joke.
the call time for all broadway shows is 30 minutes before(to my knowledge)

30 minutes? Wow. Call for community theatre (at least here anyway) is at least an hour before.
Ummm, Idina can't get there at 5, did you read the article in the NY Times? If there's a matinee at 2, which is over at 4:30, which means she gets out by 5, then she does Yoga...
and than she eats lunch. On Wednesdays and ONLY on Wednesdays she eats tuna fish on whole wheat bread with no crusts and a side of sixteen (16) baked lays potato chips. The potato chips shall be original flavor and not of any other variety.
If it is the second Wednesday of the month and the winds are moving towards the south or if there is no wind that day, she will have one (1) small diet pepsi without ice.
On Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays Idina will eat a salad, but will only eat it with iceberg lettuce and vine ripe tomatoes cut into 8 pieces and evenly distributed throughout the salad. No crutons shall be present in the salad, because those are a Sunday evening luxury but are reserved for Sunday evenings when there is a new episode of American Dreams on NBC.
All other days, Idina will partake in a simple fruit salad which will consist only of cantaloupe, honeydew, strawberries, red grapes and blueberries. Green grapes substituded for red grapes when red grapes are clearly available shall be a breach of any contract pre arranged by the actress and she will still retain rights to all fruit salad products given to her. The fruit salad will fit into a 10 ounce container and shall not exceed the diameter of 1 (one) soda can.
Fresh all natural spring water shall be provided to Mrs. Menzel to accompany all meals eaten by said actress and the water shall not be above 37 degrees in temperature.

No, I won't be ignored. And her meals are prepared by the little girls who post non stop about all things WICKED.
