Did you see anybody? Was it worth it or a waste of time?

LOL... I guess from Bob's post, the answer is yes!
Love the pictures, btw--Brandi and Saycon are HOT and that is the most adorable picture of Megan ever.
I'm going on Wednesday, June 28 at 8:00 and I'm going to SD it afterwards. I wouldn't mind going before but that would be kinda weird... I mean, they'd remember that I was there earlier, wouldn't they? But since I'm going to be in and out of the Theatre District all week, I might just SD whenever I can.

I went to the stage door before JLT's last and we met her and Melissa Fahn. But Jennifer was extremely nice (I had already seen her twice as Glinda) and she signed a few things for me and my friend, and then she actually went inside to put down some stuff and then came back out. I don't really know how other people are like before the show though...:?

The last time I stagedoored before a show was last March, and I saw JLT & talked to her for a few minutes before she went in, saw Megan [this is when she was a standby], talked & got a picture, saw Saycon, and Shoshana went in but I didn't talk to her. I don't know what the cast like is now, but I say go for it!

Kind of....when I went into the city on January 5th to see Wicked, my mom and I were starving, but we walked right past the stage door so we stopped and waited for like 15 minutes. Then we went to McDonalds (right across the street) and when we came back out, the other people who were there told us everyone had come and gone in already. I wasn't very happy. (But at least we got to see them afterwords!)

I did in SF when I went to see Eden. I made Eden a scrap book of me getting to SF (my job and all the crazy things I did) and I had a flower for her. I wanted to give her the flower before the show. My name is Logan and Logan Lipton (boq) has only met like 2 other Logans including me. So he recognized me and called me the other Logan. We talked about how long it took for me to get to SF and how hes doing. Funny story actually. During the show Eden got the flower from me...but I only put "From Logan" so she thought Logan Lipton gave it to her...so she asks him after thanks...but why the flower...he told eden it was actually a fan who is really excited to meet you.

You'll see everyone! And most of the cast really enjoy meeting their fans:)
EDIT: Oh I didn't realize you said before a show. I'd say go after the show. You'll have more time to talk to them. Some people do stage door before shows and they do see people but i wouldn't recommend it. The cast is on their way to work and really just trying to get there and get ready. If you go after they are much more willing to talk and take pictures and all that jazz.
