So what did we all buy? — Page 3

- An adorable little Asian boy (son of Phantom conductor?), yelling on the top of his lungs, selling A Chorus Line headbands for 25-cents

Wasn't he just so cute!? Yes, he's David's son. I was working at the PHANTOM table and we all just loved him. We should have had him promoting our raffle!

I only bought one item this year - a GREY GARDENS t-shirt for 2 bucks that they were selling across from our table. I was hoping to find some kind of merchandise related to SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE, but was unsuccessful.


and a 6-foot Taylor Hicks door sign for $50 which made for the most awesomest subway ride ever! :)

I saw you guys carrying that and I was thinking what an interesting subway ride home that would be!

I thought it was much more crowded this year than last year. I'm sure there was some spill over from the street fair on 8th. And why do people insist on bringing their dogs to this every year?! Do they want them to get trampled on? Not to mention people tripping over the dang leashes!

Feathah! Great pics of MEK (Tad)! I wasn't quick enough with my camera. He looks great on AMC, but fab in person!!

Thank you for the kind emails and comments on my blog! I love the Flea Market! This was my 8th year in a row and I always have a great time! And it benefits Broadway Cares which has been near and dear to my heart for well over a decade.

The In The Heights table was mobbed as early as 9:30am. They also had Rent stuff - mostly autographed posters, playbills and other things from various casts. They got cleaned out early! Some stuff I managed to grab was a coffee cup prop, piragua prop, and an autographed candle prop. They had signed scripts and photos too.

The Spring Awakening table was cleaned out quick as well. I forget the stuff they had early in the day.

WAY too much. This was my first time, so I went a little crazy.

Window cards of:
Gypsy City Center, Rock and Roll, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Spelling Bee, In My Life, Little Dog Laughed, High Fidelity, Godspell Papermill, Coram Boy, Playbills of 2006-2007, and the Sondheim Kennedy Center Celebration Collection (cards from every show plus one for the general celebration, 10 cards total).

Hair costume sketch for Berger
Ripped shirt from Hair
Easter Bonnet DVD from 2008 & 2007

Joanne's scarf from Rent

T-shirts from Passing Strange, Spelling Bee, Wicked, and Pirate Queen
8x10s of Raul Esparza, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Laura, Patti, and Boyd.
Signed Spelling Bee karate board.
The Homecoming program.
And a free keychain from Whistle Down the Wind and free t-shirt from Papermill's Oklahoma.

I'm so broke.

And while I don't know how much the giant Company poster went for, the Is He Dead? one sitting next to it was $100 I think.

Didn't spend a ton of money, but got some stuff I wanted:

- Legally Blonde "Bonecake" t-shirt
- Legally Blonde "CHIP" t-shirt
- Zanna, Don't windowcard
- Great American Trailer Park Musical Windowcard (only $1!! Amazing)
- NINE Playbill (Jane Krakowski<3)
- LB Tony Voters Rough Cut CD
- Andy Karl's name slider from LB
- Easter Bonnet 2008 DVD

And not at the flea market, but I picked up Orfeh's solo cd (What Do You Want From Me) at The Palace on my way home. AMAZING.

I kinda wish i'd gotten a few more things. haha. i really wanted sutton's holiday cards. darn. Some good stuff, though. hope everyone had a great time!

nyb418, I payed $50 for the RECKLESS poster.

I was going to wait until later in the day for the price to go down (though the MTC booth seemed pretty committed to the prices they set for all the signage they had,) but I just went ahead and got it as my "big ticket item" for the day.

---

EnWashingtonHeights, the demo cd, libretto and Easter Bonnet were upwards of $100. I know some people who bought 'em, but too steep for me. They had autograph pics and cartoons and stuff that were much cheaper.

I got the signed ITH candle for ten bucks. My coffee and piragua were two bucks each. I think the autographed photos were ten?

Oh, did anyone happen to see Allison Case's HAIR costume sketch? I got there in time to see the last Berger one go at around 11, and I really wanted to know if she had one so I can kick myself for not setting the alarm.

Where were the Rent sign-in sheets being sold??

They didn't have Allison Case's sketch, the only girl's sketch I saw was Allison Guinn, and I was looking at them around 10. They did sell Alison Case's bag from the show, though.

The Rent sign-in sheets were at the silent auction table, as were a couple of rehearsal costumes and the name sliders.
