If I remember correctly from last year, the map didn't come out until Friday, so I think you still have a couple of days for it to come out

I am only in New York for a few hours and there are certain shows tables we would like to prioritize over others so like any vacation we are going to plan where we want to go first and fit that around the times for autograph tables.

That is the list of the tables but where is the map of where the tables are?
Interesting I do not see Gigi on that list? I would have though they would be there to sell of the remaining merchandise
Closed shows don't always have tables, though sometimes if a cast member from that show is currently in one that has a table, you'll find stuff at that table.

Never said it was a map. Lizzie asked how someone knew Hamilton had a table, and that link is how.

Thanks, Lizzie. Can someone explain what "TDF Pik-a-Tkt" is?
http://www.broadwaycares.org/page.aspx?pid=439
Pik-a-Tkt is spin the wheel...chance of winning tickets to shows...it's like a raffle where you pay per spin.
Map is up. Celeb list is up. Weather looks to be more of the same tomorrow, which is to say, divine and neither too not nor too cold nor too humid nor raining. Everybody have a wonderful time. Hope you all have some great finds. Bring cash in different denominations so it saves you the trouble of having to go the ATM kiosks or waiting for the booths to be able to make change. If you are also going to Elsie Fest in the afternoon, Godspeed. If you are seeing a matinee, tons of great stuff on the boards to choose from. Christmas Day for theatre lovers is upon us!

I thought the TDF pick a tkt was where you buy x amount of raffle tickets for x amount of money. those tickets are stapled together and you stand there and separate the stapled tickets. if the inside of your stapled ticket says "WINNER" then you go to the table and they give you an envelope with a pair of tickets to a broadway OR off broadway show, or a voucher of some sort. then, the trading area next to is is to trade your ticksts if you did not like the pair you received / can not attend that date.

I'm curious. Ive always wanted to go to the flea market but I've never been able to go. Is it worth it to go? Ive read comments about the crowds. Does anyone know of a time frame when its quieter?
What are the silent auctions like? What do they typically auction off? Is there a list of items and the times they are being auctioned off because I was reading that the auction prizes change every half hour. And what's the difference between the silent auction and the live auction? is there a difference in the items they auction off? Sorry I have so many questions
You can view the live and silent auction items via the link on this page: http://broadwaycares.org/fleamarket2015
The live auction starts at 5 and seems to be higher ticket items including experiences. The silent auction items were already open for pre-bidding and they change every 30 minutes.
I really hate that I have to miss this after attending the last two years, but I genuinely hope everyone in attendance has a great time! Please post what you get, and know with every post I will be cringing with envy! :)
Yikes, first time attending... not really my thing, heh. I stopped trying to accumulate showstuff so I don't end up on Hoarders: Broadway Edition, so it was pretty much a ton of stuff I didn't really have much interest in... I did buy a Tits of Clay T-shirt from the Hedwig table (old design, not the Belasco one); a Hamilton poster from the Public run (which was supposedly never sold there? Only for cast/crew and as a $250 signed version during the BC/EFA drive); and a signed Significant Other poster, since that was my fave play this season. I also had 24 unwinning lottery tickets, heh.
I'm on a break now. Actually eating before heading to Dames At Sea. My best purchase so far is a Side Show window card signed by Emily Padgett & Erin Davie. Gonna see what is discounted later.
Can anybody pick me up one of the Hamilton posters? I can PayPal you right now.
I'm at home now, but there were only 2 left about an hour ago... they're $75 if you find anyone.
