Adventures at the Stagedoor

Whenever I go to NYC I always go to the stagedoor(s) for every show that I saw during the trip as well as few others. Stagedoor experiences are fun and exciting, you get to meet the cast, talk to them and maybe get a picture or two(and you leave with your playbill signed). The actors are always so nice and truly grateful for the work. The night before their last performance in Spring Awakening, Jonathan Groff and Lea Michele brought candy as well as posed for pictures and signed autographs for the student rushers who were camping outside of the O'Neil thatre to get tickest to their last show! There is always this energy amongst the theatre goers at the stage door. Eveyone is excited and there are ALWAYS screaming fans and something unusual always happens. One time during her run in Spring Awakening Lea Michele was proposed too at the stagedoor(it was posted on YouTube)! When I went to the stagedoor after catching Promises, Promises, fans waited eagerly by the stagedoor as well. A crowd of people had gathered on the other side of the street looking at us. One of them screamed "Who are you waiting for?" At that moment a passerby whi had heard the question yelled "Justin Bieber!" A few minutes later, another person on the other side of the street yelled out "Lindsay Lohan just got out of jail!" A woman yelled back "I hope not!"  Everyone was laughing! It's moments like those that make the stagedoor experience memorable and exciting while meeting your favorite broadway stars!
