Cast at the stage door

Hey guys!
I'm planning on going to the matinee on July 14th in London, which is a lot of the cast's last day.
I'd really love to get autographs and things, but I was wondering:
Do the cast come out of the stage door after a matinee?
If so, how long would you normally have to wait?
Finally, does it annoy them to have to do the autograph thing? It's just I wouldn't want to finally meet some of these people and then only go away disappointed, if you know what I mean.

Oh yeah, and an extra thought: is the matinee ever a bit worse than the evening show, like because the actors need their voices for the night?

Thanks everyone.

I've never seen Wicked in London or in New York City, but it is common knowledge that usually the cast does not come out of the stage door after matinees. They have a show later that night, most of the principle cast, Elphaba, Glinda, Fiyero, will probably not show up. You might get to catch some ensemble members though and possibly some smaller characters.

And no, of course the matinees are not worse than night shows. If they were, they would get rid of matinees all together.


Actors aren't nocturnal who only sing at night time, love. Wink

Thanks for your help - but you know what I mean, they have two shows that day, so I thought they might need to hold back a bit so they still had some juice left in the tank for the evening.

All of the cast are happy to autograph things. Oweing to it being their last day, I think they might not come out, well Helen and Adam etc, because they will be busy packing their stuff away from their dressing rooms.

So the main cast don't come out of the theatre between the matinee and the evening performances?

Usually not.
Most are resting or eating and whatnot.
