Posted: 8/18/06 at 7:06pmI emailed Stephen Schwartz and got a reply. Nothing in writing, though.
The rain we knew is a thing of the past -
deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

#255re: Who have you gotten stuff back from?
Posted: 8/18/06 at 10:17pmI haven't written to her since she was in Wicked, but I got a letter from Adinah Alexander about 2 weeks after I sent it.

Posted: 8/18/06 at 11:28pmDo you put the return address of the theater on the SASE, or do you just leave it blank?
#257re: Who have you gotten stuff back from?
Posted: 8/18/06 at 11:31pmI usually just leave it blank...

lately ive left it blank so then when i get something back, i dont know who i've gotten it back from till i open the envelope...sort of like a suprise
but i was wondering, does JLY still send headshots from email requests? i requested a signed headshot for my sister as a suprise for her in an email to him like a month ago, and havent gotten anything, so i was just wondering...

I usually leave the return address blank, but I know some people put their own address there, so they are sure to get it back either way.
I don't think JLY accepts any e-mails anymore. This is what he posted in his blog a little less than a month ago:
"I took another stab at e-mail. I'm sorry -- I don't think I can keep up! I have 42 pages of unanswered e-mail from friends and fans, and I intended to answer it, but I have to stop promising. So I appreciate all the warmth and support, but I can only answer if you send me a letter. Look for my mailing address on my contact page, and I look forward to being in touch: the old fashioned way."

Posted: 8/19/06 at 12:27pmHow do you send things to be signed by people who are not in shows anymore? Is it possible? For example John Lithgow and Kristin Chenoweth. Thanks.

Posted: 8/19/06 at 12:45pmI've only written to Alan Menken. I sent two song books and a BATB lobby card and he signed all three (even wrote out a couple of bars of "Beauty and the Beast" on the poster.) They were returned to me rather quickly.

Posted: 8/21/06 at 3:05pmI prefer to hand deliver envelopes at the stage door. I usually write them a letter and tape it to a SASE and hand it to them after we talk. I have had good relationships with the Sweeney cast, so most of them have had headshots for me when I see them at the stagedoor, like a surprise, and then would say "I knew you'd be back. Here, I'd like you to have this, but for people like Patti, I gave her a letter and got a nice personalized headshot 3 DAYS later.

Posted: 8/22/06 at 8:29pmDoes anyone know if you hand a letter to someone at the box office, it'll get to the person you wrote to? I'm going to try that with my letter I wrote to the cast of Spelling Bee, since it didn't get to the theatre when I tried mailing it.

That's really weird that you got it sent back to you. I believe that's the same address I used, because I got mine off of either playbill.com or broadway.com.
If you're worried about the letters not making it to the actors maybe you could give it to them personally after a show one day? Even if you don't go to see it. I've done that before when I've been to NYC. It's worth a shot!
