Last week Spelling Bee was doing the boards from "I Speak Six Languages". I think I saw posters and playbills too. I didn't look at prices. I know in the fall the boards were like $40.

Last Friday The Color Purples had signed posters for $80 and signed playbills for $20.
Has Chorus Line started to sell anything yet.
When I saw Curtains on 4/5 I could have sworn that they said playbills were $30. I wonder if they changed the price. They also had the signed posters for $100.

Saw Les Mes on Tuesday night and they didn’t even mention the collection period. Curtains were selling the playbills for $30. Chorus Line was also selling the signed poster for $75.
Spring Awakening was sold out of posters. I was told to check back this weekend. Unfortunately I live out of town so that wont be a possibility. Any one have an extra one they could sell me?
Nothing at Pirate Queen, but they opened during the collection period.....
Les Mis makes announcements fridays, saturdays, and sundays after the performances for donations
On Wednesday April 11 after the curtain call of Company, they actually auctioned Raul's kazoo on the stage and took bids from the audience.
Grey Gardens is collecting.
For Drowsy, Jonathan Crombie comes out and makes the Broadway Cares donation announcement...and he says "just to get the ball rolling", he pulls out a $20 bill from his pocket and hands it to someone in the front row and asks that person to put it in the collecting bucket for him. He claims that "actors and buckets make him nervous".
At last night's performance, he handed the $20 bill to me :) I felt very honored...but felt a bit cheated when I saw on the $20 that it was marked in red pen "DC 20" (Drowsy Chaperone, $20? my guess). I guess it's the prop they use to make sure they get the $20 back.

What is Grey Gardens Selling??
They were still out of posters at Spring Awakening as on 4/14.
Saw Mamma Mia over the weekend and they are also participating in the spring pleas. They are taking donations and in return for the donations you get Mamma Mia golf balls. They are also selling signed posters and pictures of you with Donna and the Dynamos.

I know this is the last weekend that they are collecting. Does anyone know if Spring Awakening has signed posters for sale again and if Grey Gardens is selling anything. Thanks
As of last Sunday April 15, Spring Awakening had signed posters for sale.

Saw "Altar Boyz" on April 9 and they were doing onstage $20 Polaroids with all five guys.
Jim Daly was subbing for Landon Beard but it was Landon's signature on the cardboard "frame" they handed out with it.:)

Sorry to keep asking this but does anyone know for sure that Spring Awakening was selling signed posters in the last 2 days. I really want to get one but I have to make a 2-hour car trip and I am worried they won’t have any since this will be the 3rd time I have tried. Thanks in advance.
