Celebs are really involved in the making of Madame Tussauds wax figures — here’s how it works: ‘Whatever they say goes’
NY Post
Nice figure!
For over two decades, Madame Tussauds has been a Times Square institution, luring tourists and locals alike with its collection of 200-plus lifelike celebrity replicas.
Now, the W. 42nd St. waxworks is giving visitors a peek inside the looking wax with an all-access pass, allowing the curious to delve into the day-to-day of doppelganger making.
Tussauds’ 30-minute Behind the Scenes tour admits guests to the studio workshop floor, where the artists go about their daily job of handling, urgently repairing and creating figures to fill the exhibition halls.
The cost of the tour is $12 above the base ticket price. (General admission begins at $29.99 for Tri-State residents, climbing from there.)
And there’s no posting for clout, either — all phones and recording devices must be checked at the studio’s door before entering.
