Casual reminder that Shows that are brand new and/or in previews will likely not have anything for sale.
(With that in mind, DANCIN‘ did not have anything)

Anyone know what Moulin Rouge is offering in terms of signed/unsigned merch, if anything? I have tickets for the 9th and curious what I might find there.

Moulin Rouge is selling signed posters for $300 and playbills for $100, I believe.
Six is doing posters for $100 and playbills for $50.

$200 for a signed playbill? Geez! I was hoping to get one of those but not for that price.

A Doll's House has signed playbills, not a show I expected them to collect at--- was interesting going directly from that emotional finale straight into the collection pitch, strangely nothing at Bad Cinderella my night.

In my experience, it takes a little bit after opening for the cast to actually have the time/organization to sign enough to sell at each performance--they did only open a week ago!

As of tonight, DANCIN’ is selling signed Playbills for $50.
I think it was the first night since Manny goofed on the pitch a little bit and the band almost played him off before they had a chance to offer the Playbills. Yeman Brown swooped in to save the day and Manny played it off by saying “SIKE!” To the orchestra. It was funny as hell.

That’s nothing compared to Phantom last night. A mini replica music box signed by the leads for $10k. Oof.

Pictures From Home is selling window cards (different design) for $100 and playbills for $50. First woman turned me away as she saw me walk into buy one. Pretty disgusting for a charity to turn money away. Should be ashamed. Went to the other side of Studio 54 and bought there.

I DESPERATELY wanted a Company Playbill last season and 100% would have gone to see it again to get one, but really did not have the time (last March/April was SOOOO packed and I had other shows basically any time I was free). I went to the theatre after I had seen something else that was shorter and waited like 20 minutes for the entire theatre to empty out. After everybody else had walked past him and almost nobody had donated, I slipped in and asked if I could get one. It's clear there wasn't much demand, it's one of my favorite shows and productions, and I love to support BCEFA. This was also the very end of the fundraising period. He had maybe 3 or 4 shows to sell all of these Playbills and Posters.
This man demanded I show him a ticket from that day and then proceeded to be the snarkiest a-hole to me. I'm a pretty physically large guy, but I also think I was pretty clearly a 19-year-old on the verge of a panic attack in that moment. I stuttered through everything I mentioned above and asked if there was any way he could make an exception. He was just like "Well you can buy a ticket and come back" with a completely unreasonable amount of attitude. Totally an a-hole for no reason.
I guess it's supposed to be about the limited supply they have or that they want to prevent scalping of the products. But I will just never understand actively turning down donations. Who would even know and what would they even do if they discovered he made an exception to raise more money for a charity?

I can assure you, the target audience for Pictures From Home are buying $100 cards. They throw a five in the bucket and leave.

People who have not seen the show and are looking to make a profit off of the signed playbills/posters absolutely try to hang around the theater. Then they turn around and sell them on eBay or something. You're right in that it's yours to do with what you want after you make the donation, but this way they are able to cut down as much as possible on that happening. It's for a donation, hopefully everything purchased is meaningful, but yes, things can only be bought if you have actually attended the performance. Otherwise random people can just walk in and buy stuff. This is why the Broadway Cares Flea Market exists. There are other opportunities to obtain signed playbills, etc.
