Hello! new to the Board. Just received a signed playbill and photo from Sierra Boggess, and a signed photo, letter, and playbill from Jessie Mueller!

I sent to Caissie Levy and the stage Manager of Violet about 6 weeks ago and to the stage manager of Beautiful about 3 weeks ago. Since Violet has closed I'm not holding my breath there but just wondering if anyone has had success on the other ones and how long it took.
Beautiful does respond. It should be any day now.
They get 50+ requests a day. Yours should be soon :)
^ 50+ requests per day?! I highly doubt that is true. When I stopped by the office at the theatre one day, there were only like 5 envelopes in the mail. (I was there when it was picked up.) Granted, that was before the Tony awards, but I can't imagine that things would have picked up that drastically. Plus, as of a couple weeks ago at least, people were still getting Playbills with the original cover, which changed months ago. If they received that many requests, I would think that the original cover Playbills would be long gone.
I was basing my knowledge on how much Heathers was getting. It might not be 50+ but I guarantee it's probably a pretty hefty stack.
Heard back from Neil Patrick Harris today- Sent him a photo Via Hedwig and he sent it back signed and also included a cast signed playbill too (even though I did not ask for one or donate)- Pretty awesome!! Took 38 days.
I should have written straight to him. I wrote to the stage manager and sent my own playbill hoping it would make a difference but alas they just sent it back unsigned. However I did hear back from Pippin today! I got a cast signed playbill featuring the current cast except it is signed my Potts not Lopez. Also Miss Rene signed my Big Fish playbill and CD cover!

I just got back a response from Lady Day signed by Audra McDonald. I sent it to the stage manager and it took about 3 weeks.
Got a signed Finding Neverland playbill back from Jeremy Jordan today! About 2 weeks or so.
Anyone have any luck with norm lewis at phantom? I sent a playbill about 3 weeks ago but haven't heard anything back yet.
I also got a signed Playbill back from Lady Day! Took over two months, but it is signed so I am so happy!
Just heard back from Caissie Levy :)

Wickedmonkey332 when did you send mail to Caissie Levy? I sent to her mid July so am curious
I sent to Caissie in June I believe- took over two months
Today I got home and had a letter from "Newsies", with trading cards.... such a delightfully awesome surprise! Also, recently heard back from James Monroe Iglehart, Caissie Levy, Sierra Boggess (who sent a photo of her as Christine-- didn't ask for it so it was also a nice surprise) and Joshua Henry.
Had anyone ever tried to send to a performer at 54 Below? I would love to send to Donna Vivino when she is there in October.
Got a reply from Marc Kudisch today!!!!Took about 2 weeks.

I sent my Newsies playbill to Jeremy Jordan at the theatre where his new musical, Finding Neverland is playing and last Friday I got a reply! He signed my playbill and send it back which I am so happy about, especially since Newsies has closed.
No I was sure. I copy and pasted that post and for some reason some question marks decided to tag along. Lol.
