I thought some of the Pippin pricing was a little high. The board that Fastrada stands in front of during the knife part was originally priced at $800, which was too much. I didn't understand how the tambourine thing worked -- was it a silent auction? It wasn't really labeled. And I wasn't sure why they had Priscilla ping pong balls at that table -- was a cast member in Priscilla before?
The Kinky Boots signed boots were awfully expensive at $500, but the price was for a pair and they are all leather, so the boots probably cost quite a bit to manufacture. I wonder if they sold any at that price, though. I noticed the Annie table was selling signed Jane Lynch sneakers for $500 also, which I doubt they got.
I actually thought all of this past season's shows that had a table (Annie, Matilda, Pippin, Cinderella, Motown, Bountiful, Kinky Boots) did a nice job, particularly Cinderella and Pippin. But part of what was missing is that there's usually a decent amount of stuff from recently closed shows, which I didn't see in general (except for Hands on a Hardbody and Bring It On). I didn't see much of anything from Drood, A Christmas Story, The Assembled Parties, The Heiress, or Virginia Woolf, for example. A lot of the Tony promo stuff was for last year's Tonys (I saw a lot of Clybourne Park and Nice Work stuff).
