Does anyone know if there's a stage door for the Hulu Theatre at MSG? I'm going to see Grinch and would love to SD. If there's no stage door, is there a general area where the actors will come out from? Thanks
When Cathy Rigby did PETER PAN last time, Kim Crosby was in the show and I reeeeeeally wanted to ask her to sign my INTO THE WOODS poster. I don’t live far from MSG, so I went almost every night for a month to different exits, hoping to catch her. No joke, on the very last night of the show, I went back to actually see it again and I randomly asked another employee if there was any way to know which exit she might use and a guy came up and said he heard me and he was her assistant (or friend, I can’t 100% remember) and told me to go to a certain door and he’d text her and make sure she came out of that one. There are so many exits all around the building that it’s virtually impossible to “stage door” a show there.

Jordan, did you meet Cinderella?!

There actually is one. I have a friend who was in Elf last year. When you exit the theater, head towards the stage and go out the doors on house right. There is a small lobby area before you hit the doors to the street (8th avenue side) and the stage door is to your left in that small lobby area.

Thanks! I’m going to go early to scope it out and also ask an employee.
Not the Hulu Theatre but the main arena-- back in my circus days, I remember the excitement of first entering the Artists Entrance at the Garden only to greeted with the slowest elevator on earth. Soon enough, entering up the loading ramp, dodging delivery trucks. (and off to my temporary office between the elephants and royal yaks)
