Stage Door Yesterday
Permalink Closed


I've never seen a group of actors spend more time signing autographs. Taylor Hicks, a true gentleman who knows how to treat his fans (I'm neither a fan nor a detractor - I'm ambivalent), must have spent a solid half hour signing programs and posing for photos. Max&Laura followed, and they spent a long time, as well, as per usual. Some of the crowd left after Taylor, the rest stayed for the others.

Interesting to see the car sizes - Max&Laura were downgraded to an Explorer! Taylor got the Escalade...and Max&Laura's original security guard.

Personally, I was there to get the CD that one of the recent Taylor-fan posters sent me signed (and a Playbill for eBay. Why not?) And Jenny Powers on a Follies Playbill. Nice chick. She's leaving Sunday.

Photos to come.

Thank you, Mr. E. It means a lot to hear nice things about Taylor from the non-fans. People expect to hear that type of thing from his fans, but your calling Taylor a true gentleman who knows how to treat his fans carries much more weight here. smile.gif

I'm looking forward to your pictures!

Wonder who is taking over the part of Rizzo or Sandy or Danny. No announcements have been made.

Everyone is wondering.  There is some chat about it on BWW, but you know how that goes.  biggrin

I met Taylor in Huntington Wv. I was standing on the opp. site where they were doing autograph and Taylor seen us and knew we were in the wrong place to get an autograph. Taylor went and got on his mini bike and came to us. I thought that was so nice of him. He didn't have to but he did. Taylor is a true gentleman.

Taylor has always been good to his fans. He performed a numer of times during his concert tours while sick with bronchitis and even then signed autographs for his fans before and after the concerts.

Can't wait to see the photos you have to show us.smile.gif

On Tuesday night Taylor didn't spend a lot of time signing autographs and once Max and Laura came out I didn't see any of the cast. Not even Jose who has always come out that I've seen.

Thank you MrE1111. I've seen Taylor in concert several times and everytime he's taken time to sign autographs for his fans afterward and is a genuine person, not at all affected. I'm glad you are seeing what we see.

I'm sure the entire cast is great about taking time with their fans.

Thanks for the pics.

MrE the photos are great, brand spankin new. I've met Taylor many times and he is always attentive and cares about his fans. Want to meet Laura & Max next weekend and any others from the cast that I can. Hope I can get up close enough. Any hints you care to share blush.gif

Thanks for your kind observation about Taylor and of course the photos handshake.gif

The cast comes out and most of the time, all of them are happy to sign autographs or to have a pictures taken. They are a really wonderful group of individuals.

You don't have to rush out to the stage door. The band plays a bit after the bows and they are terrific. Then go to the immediate left of the theater doors and you will see the barricades. Just be patient and wait there. It takes the cast a few minutes to turn in their costumes and get out of the building.
