Recently I recieved a very special package in the mail from Brooklyn the Musical. I had sent a long letter along with a bunch of pictures to have signed and returned to me by the cast. Iwas so thrilled to get all my pictures signed and returned to me! What is the coolest thing you have sent to a stage door or have recieved from one?!

That's nothing, WonderBoy, once Norbert Leo Butz sent me some of his hair follicles for an 'experiment' I'm doing!
Idina still hasn't returned my question for her under-roos.
Me, I like to laugh.
Me, I like to love.

Sutton Foster sent me a care package for my "millie corner"
But I think the coolest thing I ever got was on opening night of 1776- jennifer garner sent me the nicest card!

Posted: 7/13/05 at 5:30pmAssuming it's the actors and not the actual stage door who's sending the mail, I received a signed playbill and letter from Carolee a couple days ago. But I'm fairly new to the whole fan-letter thing, anyway...

Toilet paper from Adam Pascal's dressing room. But I took it. He wrote a note to me on it first.
I have a real answer, but that was just better; it was more fun to write. And the first part of it... well, someone did apparently do so, I believe. ah, sanity. How I treasure thee.

Posted: 7/13/05 at 11:09pmI sent Barrett Foa my shoelaces to be signed (since the cast of Q signed my shoes lol, and he couldnt stay to sign / take pictures) and he sent them back about 2 weeks later with the signed shoelaces, a cute letter, a picture signed that I sent him in January which he still had, and a signed playbill :)

The long-ish letter Stephanie D'Abruzzo sent me with a signed head shot was cool. It was unordinary because it was a good size letter and the stationary it was on was awesome

There's a tie between two, both from "Wicked" stars.
-After I sent Saycon a care package as a congrats for going on as Elphie for the firs time, she sent me: two signed pics, her calendar signed, her cd, and a handwritten thank you card.
We have emailed back and forth ever since..
-Carole Shelley sent me a handwritten note, a signed pic, and a playbill signed by her, JLT, George, Sho, and David.

I got banged by a stage door once.
Yeah, the person exiting wasn't watching carefully.
Heh heh heh. I just had to seize the opportunity to say something that moronic.

Posted: 7/14/05 at 10:20pmAt one time I had an 8x10 photo of the original cast of Hairspray that was featured in Entertainment Weekly. It featured Marissa Jaret Winokur, Harvey Fierstein, Dick Latessa, Matthew Morrison, Kerry Butler, Corey Reynolds, Mary Bond Davis, and Jackie Hoffman. I was sending the photo back and forth getting it signed by each cast member. First Harvey, then Marissa, etc. They'd sign it, send it back to me, I'd send it to the next person, and so on and so on. Well, it was very close to the time when Corey was leaving the show. I sent my photo to Corey and then I waited...and waited...and waited. Three months went by, so I figured that my photo was lost forever. I was really disappointed and just put it out of my head. Then one day about a month later (4 months since I had sent the photo), it was returned to me. And not only had Corey signed it but all the remaining cast members that hadn't signed it yet, had signed it as well. I was so excited and was so thankful to Corey or whoever took the time to go to each cast member and have them sign it for me.

Posted: 7/14/05 at 10:42pmWhen I was much younger (10), I wrote a short letter to Patti LuPone telling her how much I loved her performance is Evita. Two weeks later, I got a three page handwritten note from Ms. LuPone (which I still have), and signed and personalized headshot, and a playbill signed by the entire cast. This was the only time I have ever sent a note to a performer.

Posted: 7/14/05 at 10:45pmI got slammed into The Shubert Stage Door by an actor friend of mine.... so I guess you could say the big ole bruise I had on my arm was the best thing I've gotten from a stage door.

next coolest thing ever, in '98 or '99, i got a handwritten letter back from Marcy [Harriell] from when she was in Rent, it took several months, but was worth the wait.
