I know BCEFA is starting up for the fall over the next week. Please post any finds here as to what theatres are selling! Thanks.

Today at Big Fish, they were selling signed Playbills for $40 and Posters for $80 (I think). Glass Menagerie was also selling Playbills ($20) and Posters for $100. Zachary sold the knit hat he wore on stage (with a backstage meet and greet) in an Auction at the end of the show----it went for $500. Cherry and Celia had the buckets at the doors as people exited.

Phantom had luggage tags and magnets for $5, pins with the logo and a red (HIV AIDS) or pink (breast cancer) ribbon symbol for, I think $5, tote bags, posters signed by the whole cast ($40), and (1 per show) a working replica of the monkey music box signed by the Phantom for $500. Last year, they had opportunities to pose with the cast for photos ($10), but they didn't yesterday. However, I attended a matinee performance that was being followed by a Halloween party for the kids of the cast and crew, so it was possible that they didn't have time for thephotos.

Oh, they're starting soon! I was rather confused as to why the Book of Mormon tour didn't make a speech/have items to sell. Too early.

Anyone hear about signed posters at BETRAYAL? I didn't care for the show when I saw it in previews, but I would definitely like to purchase a signed window card, as I am a collector. Thanks in advance.

Checked with Triton and they aren't aware of a window card being available for Betrayal. Hopefully there will be one. I know that Exit The King only had a limited amount available and then, only autographed and available during the BC drive.

Would love a signed playbill from Glass Menagerie. I'm going tomorrow!

Any updates? Anything at BETRAYAL? JANIS JOPLIN? WINSLOW BOY? Did PIPPIN or MATILDA start?

At Glass Menagerie last nigth they auctioned the glass unicorn in the show. I don't know if that was a one night only, or if they will continue.

Chicago had a signed poster for $40 and the Carols for a Cure CD for $20.

First Date had Carols for a Cure for $20, signed playbill for $40 (I think, could have been $60), and a signed poster for either $60 or $80. They also offered pictures on stage with Zac and Krysta for $100 (expensive but SUPER COOL).

Big Fish had signed playbills for $40, signed posters for $80, and maybe something else I'm forgetting. Also, Norbert totally forgot which show he was in when he made the speech at the 10/30/13 matinee - he was like "we here at Wicked support Broadway Cares" and everybody's like "um...Big Fish?" He was immediately forgiven because it was Wicked's 10th anniversary, hahaha.

Friends who saw Once last night said that they auctioned off a recorded ringtone. Went for $500.

Spiderman had signed windowcards for $100, sinister six bookmarks for $5 each or 6 for $25, Carols for a cure cd for $20, and techline bracelets and keychains with the line spiderman swings from or pieces of spiderman costume for $10-$20. They auctioned off peter parker's glasses signed by Sargent which went for $225. They said they only do the auction on weekends.

Pippin has already started. I was there yesterday. They sold full-cast signed posters for $100 and Carols for a Cure CDs.

BUMP!

Anything at BETRAYAL?

Emmaloucbway: were the Pippin posters the original cast or current cast only?

Wicked has 10th Anniversary posters signed by the whole cast, and backstage tours (although neither price was mentioned onstage).

I witnessed Brian J. Smith auction off the glass unicorn from The Glass menagerie (as well as a signed playbill, signed poster, and backstage tour) for some price above $2500: AWESOME! I saw the final preview of After Midnight: there was no mention of BC-EFA, do shows in previews not participate in this, or do some shows just not participate at all?

^ Shows in previews tend to not participate. And I've noticed that some may not do so when the preview period ends well after the fundraising has begun.

Saw someone on the subway with a window card from Romeo and Juliet signed by the entire company.

Any updates? Anyone find anything @ Betrayal, After Midnight (since it's now been open for a week), Janis Joplin, etc?

Justin Guarini has been auctioning off Orlando Bloom's white t-shirt at R&J, which Bloom then takes off right on stage. Heard that it went for $1500 last night. Clever.

Tuesday night I was at First Date and they sold photos with Zachary and Krysta for $100, on Wednesday night at Glass Menagerie they had signed Playbills and Brian Smith auctioned the glass unicorn for $250, and last night at Romeo and Juliet they had signed posters and auctioned Orlando Bloom's shirt - it went for $1500, but not to Michael Kors who was there.
