New shows in previews NEVER sell. Dependant on opening date, many won't bother this season at all.
I'm sure it has something to do with their already long workdays with rehearsal. No need to add to that.

Posted: 3/18/15 at 1:18pmI was at Honeymoon in Vegas on Saturday the 14th, matinee. They had signed posters for $75 and Playbills for $25. I bought the next to last poster and they ran out of Playbills.

Last weekend, at Les Miz, the conductor signed the baton used during the performance and it was available for $250. They also had "Team Javert" and Team" Valjean" buttons for $5. I got both.
When I was at Chicago, there were no speeches and no collections.
Phantom had their usual speech done by the Phantom and posters, pins, CDs, etc for sale.

Posted: 3/18/15 at 2:03pmWhen I was sitting at a stoplight in Times Square last week I saw someone cross the street with a cast signed poster from It's Only a Play. So I think yes they are participating.

Posted: 3/18/15 at 7:13pmKara Lindsay hinted on her Twitter account that Wicked is participating now , but I don't think they're selling anything.

Posted: 3/19/15 at 3:29amI went to Matilda and Book of Mormon last week and they were both participating. Can't remember anything about prices etc but I think at least both offered signed posters.

Posted: 3/19/15 at 8:56amOh I forgot: I saw someone yesterday with a signed window card from Aladdin and asked about the cost. He said they were $60.

Posted: 3/19/15 at 10:31pmCan anyone who's been over to The Audience lately confirm whether or not they are participating at this point?

Posted: 3/21/15 at 8:48amThere's a video on YouTube of the Fish in the Dark curtain call that was just posted a few days ago and it doesn't appear that they do collections.
#43Easter Bonnet Collection Period
Posted: 3/22/15 at 3:32amIF/THEN didn't collect last Sunday. I'm curious if 20th Century has signed posters and for how much?
#44Easter Bonnet Collection Period
Posted: 3/22/15 at 3:46amTraditionally, signed posters are $100 and signed playbills are $40 when Roundabout does collections. I don't think If/Then would participate when they're closing very soon.
#45Easter Bonnet Collection Period
Posted: 3/22/15 at 9:14amJust_John- On the 20th Century doesn't have signed items yet.

Posted: 3/22/15 at 10:30amWhen does the collection period end this year?
#48Easter Bonnet Collection Period
Posted: 3/22/15 at 5:17pmI believe the collection period ends on April 21st. That's when they will hold the Easter Bonnet Competition at the Minskoff. I've got tickets to the first day, is anyone else going?
#49Easter Bonnet Collection Period
