Stage Door: Lesley Joseph

Lesley Joseph always has been and always will be one of my favourites! I am lucky enough to have seen her in Annie a couple of times over the years. I was very excited when it was announced that she was in the cast for Young Frankenstein and she gets an incredibly amazing musical number with ‘He Vas My Boyfriend’ which she totally nails. It is hilarious and rather filthy at the same time, I guess that makes it even more brilliant.

She’s fantastic to talk to at the stage door and more than happy to pose for photos too, total legend!

Stage Door: Susan Stroman

I was lucky enough to meet the incredible Susan Stroman who is the director of Young Frankenstein and has won five Tony Awards over the years! Such an incredibly lovely woman who was very happy with my love for Young Frankenstein, after my third visit!

She has collaborated with Mel Brooks on many occasions over the years and that is well just brilliant. Making a huge success of The Producers when it was first transferred into a musical. I am really hoping that this revamp of Young Frankenstein is a huge hit when it opens in the West End later this month!

Stage Door – Young Frankenstein Cast

I know I haven’t stopped talking about the incredible Young Frankenstein Musical since seeing it for the first time last Saturday. I loved it so much that on the Sunday I bought another ticket and went to see it again last night, I waited at the stage door to see if I could catch the cast members as they came out. Last week (and rightly so) they had an after show party!

Stage Door – Matthew Seadon-Young

Matthew Seadon-Young was Gerry Goffin three times when I saw Beautiful in the West End, I had the pleasure of meeting him at the stage door after the final show and he was lovely!

Stage Door – Ian McIntosh

Ian McIntosh was in Beautiful for the full run of the show, therefore I saw him in the role of Barry Mann the four times I attended! It was therefore lovely to meet him at the stage door after the final performance on Saturday night. He was brilliant with all of the fans at the stage door posing for photos and signing autographs!

Stage Door – Cassidy Janson

Since seeing Beautiful in October 2016, I have now seen it four times and that is without a doubt because of Cassidy Janson, although my timing was bad for the third time as she was on holiday.

Her performance of Carole King has absolutely blown me away with her amazing acting ability and that voice! The way she goes for it with the different songs is truly outstanding. So on closing night it was a true honour to get to meet her at the stage door and have her sign my programme and the photo below.

Stage Door – Adrian Zmed

Another incredible meet after seeing La Cage Aux Folles was Adrian Zmed who was just brilliant from start to finish in the show. He had quite a big crowd of people waiting at the stage door for him and was absolutely fantastic signing and taking photos.

He did also mention that the show is trying to find a Theatre in the West End so watch out for that!

Stage Door – John Partridge

After seeing the amazing La Cage Aux Folles we had to pop round to the stage door to show our appreciation for an incredible show and amazing performance from John Partridge. What a lovely man, who took the time to sign autographs and take selfies/photos with anyone who asked him.

Might still be best known for his role in Eastenders as Christian, I would really recommend catching him on stage if you have the chance! Very impressed with his acting and vocal range!

img_2631_zpswsxqthw9I really was blown away by his performance and so pleased I got the chance to meet him, as I saw him in Chicago last year and didn’t get the chance to head to the stage door.

Stage Door – David Hyde Pierce

Following the sensational performance of Hello, Dolly we went straight for the stage door and got a fantastic spot at the front of one of the barriers. Quite a lot of people congregated hoping to see Bette, but rumours around the crowd were that she never comes out on a Sunday. Which turned out to be true.

David Hyde Pierce did come out though and he was fantastic, taking plenty of time to make sure he signed everyone’s Playbill and made eye contact saying hello as he was signing. I was super impressed with Niles, yes I could not resist that Frasier reference!
