Thanks for the information James! I loved the Oliver's from BBC I'd Do Anything!

Phoebe :D

All the children from the show arrive at the stage door, stay outside then are registered. This includes the 3 olivers :)

Great successes - Jodie's eyes look amazing in that picture! I was wondering, you haven't seen any of the Olivers (Gwion, Laurence or Harry) going into the theatre at all have you? I just wondered if they enter by the main entrance or stage door.

Phoebe :D

No it was AFTER the EVENING show. I didnt have anything for them to sign anyway.

Did they go in before the matinee of evening performance? I hope not the matinee! :shock:

I forgot to mention Lenny Henry and Dawn French came in via the stage door yesterday. They just waked straight through ( i presume they were visitors of Rowan's) Rowan often has visitors after the show and thats why it takes him the best part of an hour after the show to come out ( as well as getting changed)

I also thought of another reason Rowan goes out the back is becasue they lock the front doors to the theatre as shortly after all the audience has left.

Good, give him a real go. People today kept saying, hes getting worse but I didnt really see that, he only signed one each on the way in which is fair enough but people were only getting 2 max anyway. But boy, after tonights show I run out of things for him to sign he was so good. he only thing I had left was a DVD sleeve whic he signed twice as thats all I had. Although there are some dealers after shows there are also a lot of genuine fans and peopl you had just seen the show, tonight Rowan spent a good 20 minutes signing for everyone right down the line from the stage door to halfway down the street (alot were dealers though, some got 4 each) before heading back inside then leaving for home 5 minutes later (escorted to a cab) so have faith, alot of the rumours are just to scare people off. I dont think he will stop signing completely at least not yet. I actually think he secretly enjoys signing when there are a lot of people, I reckon he loves the attention. Anyway its a brillaint sign that he isnt going out the front of being escorted out with out signing, surely!
After an evening show is a better bet if you want more than one. Good luck

Here are my pics from today:

Well done as always. Glad you enjoyed the show. Next week will be my just Rowan week i think!

Dammit looks like the dealers may make him stop before I get a chance to get up there :mad:

Rowan is tightening up on signing. I heard rumours before that he may have stopped signing altogetrher due to being pestered by dealers.
Luckily when he came he did sign but only one each, you could get 2 before if you were quick. He was very firm to someone who already got one that day 'Saying, no, I ve just signed for you'. Word has obviosly got around that he is signing but for how long im not sure? Get your skates on just in case if he fed up and stops altogether. Im just going back once more when I get a 10x8 that I have been waiting for then I will leave it.

However I think he may still sign after shows if he does stop beforehand.

Anyway Rowan kindly signed a pic for me.

I saw the matinee show, and boy was it superb, Rowan plays a brillaint and hillarios FAgin! Rowan does not come out between shows due to the extensive makeup that I heard takes a good 45 minutes to put on not to mention costume etc.

After the mat, Jodie came out and posed for a photo with me.

Im going back shortly after the evening to get her to sign it for me.

Scans up later, yo AND PEACE OUT!
