What do you say to an actor/actress when you are requesting a signed Playbill? 

I'd love to get something Little Mermaid and Phantom related from Sierra Boggess, but this would be my first time requesting a Playbill and I'm not sure what to do. 

Also, who have you gotten stuff back from? And what did you send in order to get it?

Bruh, there's a thread made in 2005 with exactly what you're looking for.

Sierra probably doesn't have a bunch of old Playbills from her previous work that she is ready to sign and send off. Usually you can only count on getting a Playbill when an actor is currently in the show and you send the letter to that theater.

In general, I send a letter expressing my appreciation along with any personal meaning their performance has given me. I explain that I can't make it to NYC to see their show and would like an autographed Playbill to "make up" for it. Be sure to include a self addressed stamped envelope!

^Is correct.  You won't get stuff from shows gone by.   Only current stuff.  Heck, some actors won't even SIGN stuff thats not from the show they are currently in.


If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.
