I have every Playbill from shows I've seen. From my first, in 198?, for American Buffalo right up to Sweeney Todd at the Princeton Festival.

I keep all my playbills and my tickets plus programs to shows I've seen off broadway and even my own shows I have performed in (or my husband has performed in!)

I keep my playbills and I have them signed. I only have three but they are all signed. I have Wicked which is signed by Idina, Jennifer Laura Thompson, and Joey McIntyre(spelled wrong i know) Another wicked one from the tour signed by all the leads, and my BKLYN one signed by all five.
I keep mine. And actually i was looking at all these old ones to see when i was little who I saw cuz i didnt know anything about broadway then adnd it turns out i saw Norbert Leo Butz in Caberet and Hinton Battle and Lachonze in Ragtime.
I put the covers of mine in picture frames and hang them up in my room, it looks very neat
cool to see a lot of people keep there playbills and that this post has gotten a good amount of replies :)
I looked at my hairspray playbill, and it's not that bad... just sorta folded and stuff and a bit wrinkley
And I don't have any past tickets, but I'm gonna start collectin as much as I can!
It'll be cool to look back in 30 years at all the stuff I will hopefull have.
I try to keep my playbill, an extra one if I can get one, and a ticket stub from every show..and I making it a habit to get my playbill autographed too...I've done it for MOST of the shows I've seen..but..I haven't seen nearly as many as some here..but a lot for this year!
I love my small, but growing, collection. :)

I collect everything. I save Playbills, coins, stamps,airline ticket jackets, tokens from gambling casinos, maps, refrigerator magnets, snowglobes, tee shirts, etc. I even have old programs from Radio City Music Hall and the Roxy from the 50's when I was a kid; so keep collecting. My house is cluttered as a result; I need more space!

I keep all my playbills and if it's a show I've seen for the first time or if the playbill is signed, it's goes in my playbill binder. Otherwise all my playbills go in to a large pile on my bookcase(the most I have is from LSOH).

I keep all my playbills and tickets inside my nice little binder which is running out of space.
