It may have started already. On Saturday afternoon, while walking on 8th avenue, I saw a person with a heavily signed Lion King poster and a few yards behind her was another person with a signed Spring Awakening poster. Those could have been the products of stage-dooring, but it was so soon after the matinees had let out that I doubt they could have gotten all of those autographs in such a short period of time.

It's a go! Brooks A was adorable at THE RITZ with his speech. I hugged Seth out in the lobby as he collected...he's so dang talented, I could eat him up.

Okay, so let's start the annual "What are they selling" thread!

Phantom's new item this year is a 2007 calender with photos of the ballet dancers.

Legally Blonde is also selling, though I don't know what yet, as is Mamma Mia & Spelling Bee with their usual items.

The new Carols For a Cure CD is also being sold at all shows for $20.

When are they selling until this year? I am not sure when the benefit is, so I was wondering if they were going to run this fund-raising sale a little bit after Thanksgiving.

The Gypsy of the Year celebration will be December 3rd & 4th, so the fundraising will continue probably until Sunday Dec 2nd.

If anyone goes, or has gone, to the show recently, I'm curious to hear what YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN is selling or might be selling :)

Shows that are in previews generally don't participate, but it's possible that Young Frankenstein may after opening.

And there is always the danger of Mel Brooks sneaking in one night on YF and snatching all the donations LOL

As of now, Legally Blonde is selling signed posters for 100$, and that's it. Originally, they were 80$, but they completely sold out so now they upped the price.

SPRING AWAKENING is selling cast signed posters for $100, the Melchior letter to Wendla signed by Jonathan Groff for $50, and the letter from Melchior's mother to Moritz signed by John Gallagher, Jr., and Christine Estabrook, also $50.

Shows in previews do not participate, even if they open during the time frame.

Can anyone tell me what style poster Spring Awakening is selling. Thanks

Xanadu had Cheyenne Jackson out in the lobby and he'd take a polaroid with you (and sign it) for only $20. They also were selling signed window cards for $50.

Avenue Q had their standard “It Sucks to Be Me” and “Everything in Life is Only for Now” buttons -- $5/piece.

Both shows were also selling the Carols for a Cure CD -- $20.

SPRING AWAKENING is selling the window card with their generic logo. However, it is the reprint with the horrible "Winner! 8 Tony Awards Including BEST MUSICAL" tag line on it.

Not really sure why they nixed the old window card, but they now sell three at the theatre that are unsigned (Generic, Full Cast, and John Gallagher, Jr. one)

Spring Awakening is also selling Carols for a Cure CDs. I forget if they're 10 or 20 bucks.

Legally Blonde is now selling the Carols for a Cure CD. Picked up my copy last night, haven't listened yet though.
