Sorry if this is already a board, I looked and couldn't find one, so if there is one, feel free to direct me towards it! I was just wondering if anyone knew when collections would start happening for Spring Collections, I'm headed to the city in 2 weeks and am eager to know what shows will hopefully be offering for donations by then. Thanks so much! :)

They'll be starting collections next weekend. However, that doesn't mean everyone will start by then or even have merch.

I hope Sunday in the Park with George decides to participate. I would certainly pony up for a full cast signed window card!

Thank you for sharing, grumpyoptimist!  Now I have to (gladly) but my money where my mouth is. I wonder how much they'll be charging...

Any other reports? Shame about no Sunset posters, maybe they're coming eventually- I did see Sunday in the Park posted they were signing posters on their social media.

The Bodyguard on tour is doing $20 signed programs and $40 signed posters.

Dear Evan Hansen had posters for $200 and playbills for $75 as well as auctioning off the cast Ben wears in the 1st act signed by the whole cast starting at $500! (I believe it went for $1500)

In Transit cast signed playbills ($40) and posters ($80). I'd be shocked if the prices didn't eventually drop.

Should Dear Evan Hansen still be collecting in two weeks?

Collections are six weeks long, so yes, usually.

Thanks LizzieCurry! Especially thank you for putting up with my (probably stupid at times) questions, lol.

Out of curiosity PThespian, were the Sunset posters of Glenn or the new one with the credits? This is like the one thing I want to splurge on, heading to the show again next week.

Thanks for these reports! Does anyone have information on Great Comet and Significant Other, and their prices?

According to the BCEFA website, Great Comet is participating and Significant Other is set to participate in the coming weeks.
