Bernadette Peters - I sat right behind her during "The Glass Menagerie" and during intermission I said hi to her and asked for her autograph. I told her I loved her work and she asked if I was interested in theatre, and I said yes, and that was about it. I was incredibly starstruck, and although I was thrilled, she seemed slightly annoyed. I guess I can't complain though, it was intermission and she probably wanted to be left alone. It's cool, I met her and got her autograph and it was still awesome re: Nicest & Worse

Doogie - I don't know if you're still keeping up with this thread or not but I have to agree with you. I don't see the point of these threads either. If someone wants to share a nice or inspiring story, like a few did, I have no problem with that at all. But to make a naughty or nice list?... I just don't get it. What are we, the stagedoor santas? How can you define somoene by what you observe in 15 seconds or so? I must say that most people I have observed have been nice but if I were to get a negative impression of someone I'd certainly keep it to myself. There is a little thing called "benefit of the doubt" that I prefer to give rather than stain someone's name and reputation.

Ann Harada was so sweet. So was Susan Egan. I had her sign a playbill for someone who wasn't even there.

Doogie Howser...I mean Neil Patrick Harris...was not nice at Cabaret. He could have just been tired. And Carly Jibson was very over it when I saw her come out from Hairspray.

That's fantastic that Jeff Goldblum is so nice! I have always loved him. Wish I'd gotten to meet him. I think it's interesting how a lot of the rudeness was from people who have primarily worked in Hollywood: Christina, Melanie, etc. Must have to do with the papparazzi in LA-they probably see large groups and get defensive. But that doesn't explain why they were mean while Goldblum, David Hyde Pierce, etc. were nice.
