Yesterday I received a cast signed In The Heights playbill.
^ Did it have Jordin Sparks on it or Corbin Bleu?
Heard back from Elaine Stritch this weekend (picked up my mail this morning). She sent back my SASE with all four CD covers signed: GOLDILOCKS, COMPANY, ON YOUR TOES, and SAIL AWAY. What a wonderful way to start the week!
Today, I got back my Mary Poppins poster signed by the entire cast, including Gavin Lee. It really started my day!
How did you send a whole poster (I assume it's a standard 14x22) to Mary Poppins? I would LOVE to do that with A Little Night Music.
I have a bunch of those cardboard things from buying posters off of ebay and what not so, I took one of those,taped up 3 sides of it, stuck my poster in it. I wrote my address on it and put on 13 stamps and wrote Priority Mail as well. I then stuck my letter to the cardboard so they could find it. I then took brown shipping paper and wrapped the whole thing up with that, addressed it to the Cast of Mary Poppins, and brought it to the post office and paid the shipping cost through them. This is my second time doing this as I have done this with my Legally Blonde tour poster and it hasn't failed me yet.
My ITH playbill has Corbin's signature on it.

Just received mail from Elaine Stritch. Sent back my "At Liberty" CD along with ALNM playbill both signed. Took a little less than a month.
Today I got a signed picture and note from Tom McGowan, who plays the Wizard in the San Francisco production of Wicked.
Today, I got a signed picture from Andy Karl as Fiyero, a signed headshot from Seth Rettberg from Avenue Q with a nice note, and a cast signed playbill from In the Heights.
I just got a charming postcard from Alan Bennett. Lovely man.
Today I got the signed Wicked photos from the show that I donated money to BCEFA for. The photos included Stephanie J. Block, Eden Espinosa, Jennifer Laura Thompson, Erin Mackey, Rue McClanahan, and Carole Shelley. I also got a signed picture from Alli Mauzey as Glinda, and a signed photo from Jody Gelb (Madame Morrible, Wicked SF)

I'm being tacky, but how much money did you send for the photos? I was considering doing the same. Feel free to PM me.
Take care,
Katarina :)
^ If you are talking to me and about the Wicked photos, I originally sent a letter with a SASE and got a letter back that they did and they sell them at the flea market for these prices, 1 for $10, 2 for $15, or 3 for $20.
Today I got a signed headshot from Idina Menzel!!!! Also, I got back a signed picture from Marcie Dodd as Elphaba.

wdwfreak - Thanks! :) I'll have to try that. Congrats on the Idina photo - how long did it take? I sent mine a long time ago...
It took about 3 weeks. Did you send to the address on her website?

No... I sent it to some address I got off fanmail.biz. I'll have to try the one on her site! Thank you!
Yeah. There are only certain people I use for on fanmail.biz, especially if there is no address on their official site, which I always use first.
I just got a signed playbill back from Stephen Sondheim himself. It says "To Joseph, with best wishes, from Stephen Sondeheim"
So happy. :)
^ How long did Mr. Sondheim take to respond?
less than two weeks.
Has anyone here had any luck with any actors at Second Stage Theatre? I want to send mail to a couple of cast memebers in Trust, and I am curious if the theatre passes on fanmail.
Thanks for any help! :)

I sent to Ari Graynor a couple of weeks ago, and have yet to hear back. It might just be her though.
If I send Sutton Foster my Shrek Playbill, is it possible that she'll sign and return it?
