What Did You Get at the BCEFA Broadway Flea Market? — Page 8

Haha Eris I'm so jealous! I was wondering if they had random Madame DeFarge stuff - I thought I remember seeing on ebay a few months ago one of the knitted things she held at some point at the show!

Diana was the only photo I wanted to get but I did not feel like standing in that line in that heat.

I'm looking at Playbill's store now because I was just curious about an item I did get, but found out I wanted an earlier edition, if it did exist, but it doesn't. But, I'm laughing that I bought the most recent Broadway season window card for $1, and they have it listed for $20. But, then the flea market ones were that much in the beginning of the day, and I bought one because I wanted to get it signed.

DivaBrigader- I know it's five pages later, but your Stamos pic while wearing that shirt is now one of my most favorite flea market stories ever.

Marianne2, that was a function of being indoors and not having as much room. When it's in the Alley and on 44th, it's very obvious what tables are what because of banners and so forth.

Most of the tables around the outside had signs up behind them, the ones on the center like Billy Elliot had banners, and even though n2n had a paper on front of the table saying it was Next to Normal, there were always people in front of it.

Thank you Anakela! That's sweet. :) I just liked that he made them re-take the photo so you could see more of the text on the shirt in the pic. He was super sweet.

I requested Diana's photo and then ended up deciding not to stick around but she definitely had at least one request.

It was hot, dim, and crowded yesterday, and certainly not as great as it has been in Shubert Alley in the past, but I still had fun. I did spend significantly less than in years past, though, mostly because I struggled to even get to the front of some of the tables.

I got:
Sunday in the Park with George 2006 London Cast Recording ($5)
A Chorus Line New Broadway Cast Recording ($5)
My Fair Lady OBCR ($2)
Bye Bye Birdie OBCR ($2)

August: Osage County T-shirt ($5)
Little Shop of Horrors T-shirt ($5)

The Little Mermaid Windowcard ($1)
BC/EFA 2009 Flea Market Windowcard ($1)
2009 Season Playbill Cover Windowcard ($10)

I Heart Duloc Pin ($1)
Broadway Impact Equality Now Pin ($1)

I spent $10 at the TDF table and didn't win anything. Had I known you would be guaranteed tickets for $20 later in the day, I would have just gone then (It's not too big a deal though, seeing as the money all goes to charity).

I also got a picture with Will Swenson and Gavin Creel, which I love.

And I managed to miss the NEXT TO NORMAL table, and I must have walked past it about a dozen times. I'm really upset about that, but oh, well. I did have fun seeing some actors -- I saw Ryan Steele at the WEST SIDE STORY table, Andrew Kober at the HAIR table, Christopher Sieber at the SHREK table, and Gavin Creel at the Broadway Impact table.

I heard some girl almost passed out when she scooped up a shirt of Aaron Tyveit's. I guess it could've been from the heat and crowds, though.

"Yeah, and I guess the jammed crowd made it a lot worse to look. I just have no idea how they could have made it work better inside. "

Well, considering they had less than 24 hours lead time on making it work indoors, they did the best they could. Maybe what they'll do in the year between now and the next Flea Market, they can draw up a truly workable indoor plan in the event it happens again. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't try and put at least a tentative hold on an indoor location just in case.

It was my first year going and I got some great stuff! I got there around 4:15 and stayed there until 6:50.

kellymarie - I didn't buy that poster but I definitely saw it at a couple different tables. One was in the first aisle almost all the way down.
