Russ Abbott, Joe Pasquale and Cory English (The Producers)

Went to see The Producers at Birmingham Hippodrome last night - (28th July)
We waited outside afterwards and were lucky enough to catch up with three of the stars.
Russ Abbott (UK comedian), Joe Pasquale (UK comedian) and Cory English (US Broadway actor).
Our first success was Russ who we saw walking past the front of the theatre. It was raining so he was in a bit of a hurry. He very kindly signed my programme and stood for a photo. (Both of us keeping dry under his umbrella!)
After seeing which direction Russ came from, we headed to try and find the stage door. We did, and after a few minutes saw Cory come out. He signed my programme, (including a scribble of a mustache and eyebrows in his photo). My pen was playing up though, so as you can see I ended up with one and a half autographs. Cory also stood for a photograph.
Our final success of the evening was Joe Pasquale. A change of pen and another autograph gained. I told him that I had met him before when I was about eleven or so, He said that made him feel old. Joe was also kind enough to stand for a photo.
None of them really hung around long, the weather wasn't kind to us. Quick autographs and snaps still made my night and it was lovely that they took the time to do it.
I've done photo's of the whole page where the autographs are and then closer images of the autographs.
Ooh - If any of you get the opportunity to go, do. It's a great show.
