The envelope you put the SASE just has to be bigger than the SASE itself. It all depends on what size you get. You just have to make sure the playbill fits in one, and the one with the playbill fits in another.

As far as what type of paper to use when asking for a PlayBill..?
I use basic lined paper and hand write a little note. If a performer will actually not send me back a playbill because I didnt use stationary, or typed paper, etc I dont think I would even want their autograph anymore.

Thanks saveusmike! :) I think I'm ready :)

But one last question.. how many stamps would I need? I'm from CA, and the envelope would be around the same size of the playbill.

saveusmike-- I would just give it some time. I have heard of some people getting stuff back from her. Alot of people (especially if they are celebrities who are not typically on Broadway) can take several months.

Post here if/when you do get a response. I forgot to add--- Alot of celebrities who are on limited engagement runs will go through and send out out all of their mail after they are finished with the show. That has happened several times for me.

I received a very nice, handwritten note from Lynn Ahrens (Ragtime lyricist) in response to a letter I recently sent to her.

Marcia Milgrom Dodge (Ragtime director) gave me a Ragtime opening night pin last Friday evening when I told her how many times I had seen the show in DC and on Broadway!

She may get it after she is out of the hospital or if it clearly a get well card, the agency may send it to her.

So if I wanted to send to a show on tour it would look something like this... btw none of this info is right just making sure I have the right setup

The Providence Performing Arts Center

I just got a signed playbill from Cheyenne Jackson, says "Much Love, Cheyenne"

Sent it Jan 5th, took 11 days. Nice of him. I'm just wondering since I sent him, Christopher, and Terri letters, if the others will send anything back.
