"In theater, the process of it is the experience. Everyone goes through the process, and everyone has the experience together. It doesn't last - only in people's memories and in their hearts. That's the beauty and sadness of it. But that's life - beauty and the sadness. And that is why theater is life." - Sherie Rene Scott

My biggest purchase of the day however was the HAIR Swarm-In sign which was signed by the entire cast ($50)
I was paid $20 for the TDF booth. I won Lion King Tickets, then traded them for Phantom of the Opera AND Mary Poppins tickets, then traded the Phantom of the Opera for The Fantasticks.
This is all I can remember. I definitely bought more though
i got tons of things from phantom, wicked, and some random stuff here and there, but i went back to phantom table before i went to see memphis, i saw the tony backdrop from the red carpet for the tony's. It said make offer, so i offered them 50 bucks, and they thought there was 2 but it was this huge!!!! one and them gave it to me !!! i was supper pumped!! i think im gonna make shower curtains out of it!
"Also bought some FOLLIES props which are damn cool. They're the guests invitations personalized to the characters and signed by the actors who played them. They were out of Bernadette (Sally) when I saw them so if anyone has one and is willing to part with it, I'll be your best friend FOREVER! I want to frame the 5 that I got and would love to add that one to it. :) "

"And that was that or so it seemed.
Is this the end or the beginning?
All I know is, she was right.
I am an idiot.
It’s even on my birth certificate in so many words.
This is my rage.
This is my love.
This is my town.
This is my city.
This is my life."
HI, I won tickets to The Addams Family, Mamma Mia, Mary Poppins, The Submission, Bessie Smith and Voca People and would be willing to trade if people have tickets they were looking to exchange.
showchoirguy, would you mind uploading a pic of the Spiderman shoes? I sat front row from rush and if they are the ones I'm thinking of that would actually be so cool.
My roommate (and flea market partner-in-crime) is unfortunately in the hospital right now so I shopped for some stuff on his behalf as well. A pretty successful day and probably the most I've ever spent at a single flea market.

- I don't even own a record player? But the HAIR record was $2, so I bought it. - the baseball cap from the 8 reading was item #3 (items #1 and 2 were never found) that I was actually looking for; the windowcard too was just bonus - my best waiting game was for the War Horse autographed bag, which started the day at $75, when it hit $30 I bought it
Oh, and was at one table accused of stealing the Wonderland hoodie that already owned and wore to flea market; that was fun.
I got Bernadette's earrings from GYPSY, Bernadette's earrings from FOLLIES, and the FOLLIES opening night gift (blanket with embroidered logo and the date)
I am.a happy girl :)
