Andy Mientus got added to the 11am slot. Would it be in poor taste to get him to sign my Smash season 2 DVD set?
And I saw on Twitter last night that Natalie Weiss might be part of the scavenger hunt.
OH MY GOD, these tables are STILL SO BORING. There's people on Broadway now like Alan Cumming, Michelle Williams, Stockard Channing, Megan Mullally, Rupert Grint, James Earl Jones, Rose Byrne, Audra McDonald, Keke Palmer and so many more. C'mon, "Big Name" people, give an hour of your time and make this at least a little bit interesting!
Broadway Spotted runs the scavenger hunt. All the details are here:

I don't know anything else. I signed up last year, but forgot.
Claire Higgins has also been added to the 11:00 slot.
I think Andy would be happy to sign a copy of SMASH season 2.
Beth Fowler was just added. Now THAT is exciting.
Beth Fowler AND Nick Cordero were added to the final time slot!
Carly Hughes has joined.
Oh my God, this list is putting me to sleep.
Totally agree. I have to really like almost an entire line up for it to be worth the $30. None this year are. Then again, I will admit to only have done it twice since I started going in 2009.
So far the weather sounds like it will be fantastic. I've been seeing at least 80° for the high.

Yes the weather sounds like the best it's been for a couple of weeks. I am working a table for a couple of hours..last year I remember being windy and cold. This sounds better...
Anyone know when the map is usually posted, and therefore, when it should be posted?
The informational maps have been released!

Where can I access the map? Is it on the Broadway Cares website? I checked and couldn't find it.

I wish Gentleman's Guide had a table. I really wanted to buy a signed window card. Think I'll be able to find one?
I guess all the construction in that area is done? I was around Time Square last month and it was horrible getting through because of the construction. The TKTS line was the worst as well because of the lack of space and the flyer girls from Chicago were in the way.

This is probably a stupid question, but keep in mind this is my first flea market. So hurl just minor reads. Is a map necessary to get around? Or is it just if you're looking for a specific table? I assumed tables were just placed randomly in the area.

You definitely don't need a map. You can just wander down 44th and into Times Square. But if you're looking for a specific table the map helps, since they're all packed closely together you might miss one.

none of the the Photo Booth or autograph hours have really phased me yet so i don't think i will be doing it but i had a question regarding the two. i just read broadway cares' policy on it and just to be sure:
$30 gets you autographs of everyone in that hour, UNLESS they're at the Photo Booth?
so you could really only do autographs OR photos in the given hour, not both? or is it possible to do both if you get there early enough in that hour slot?
The whole photo thing confuses me. It's $20 per photo per actor? So, say I wanted to go during the 11:00 hour and take a photo with Judy Mclane and I'm the only one there that wants a photo with her , I'd be paying $20? Then if I wanted to take a photo with Lauren Cohn as well but 5 other fans also wants a photo with her too it would be more than $20 because she has more requests?
If someone isn't at the table that you want because they're at the photo booth, you can usually go over to the photo booth and they'll sign for you there. It's just so confusing and hectic the way they do it.
Yeah I had a worker take my playbill over to Judith Light for her to sign while she was at the photo booth. And no, I do not think it is possible to do both. Unless your actor is the first one to take pictures and then you get in line immediately for the autographs.
