I also sent my donation in at the end of April for Something Rotten and haven't gotten a Playbill back yet. They haven't cashed the check either. I'm guessing they will do it in batches.

Heard back from The Way We Get By and Wolf Hall Parts I & II today. The Way We Get By closed on Sunday and Wolf Hall took about two months and the playbill is signed by 20/23 cast members (including all leads). No donation request.
"Mostly, I loved the size of these people's emotions. Nobody has emotions this size anymore. Outsized emotions. Operatic emotions. Kushemski and Vanda are like Tristan and Isolde, they're Paolo and Francesca. Nobody's in total thrall like this anymore. Nobody's overcome by passion like this, or goes through this kind of rage."

I also heard back from THE WAY WE GET BY and The King And I. TKAI sent me an unsigned pride playbill but didn't ask me to donate..kinda weird but it's better than not getting a response at all! glad I requested it! I recently sent for It shoulda been you ! Also Jesse Eisenberg at The Spoils :) hoping for success
I wish I would have known about this, I would have done this for Newsies on broadway, and Cinderella.
Since Gigi has closed, I doubt anyone will ever hear back from them.
What about shows at 54 below? Is there a stage manager or someone to contact there about getting a show cast to sign a playbill or play card? There are a couple of shows coming up that I cannot see but would love to get something from the cast signed? I would be happy to make a donation to BCEFA?
It wouldn't have mattered if you sent something to Gigi. They weren't responding.

I actually got a response from Gigi, took 3 weeks. It was sprayed in perfume and just wow so elegant. Also got a response from Matthew Morrison and Erika Henningsen. Erika took two weeks, Matthew 3 weeks.
Does anybody know if An American in Paris replies or required a donation.
Also does Kelli O'Hara, Gavin Creel and Sierra Boggess respond? Plan on writing them this week.

"I sent an autograph request to Patti LuPone the first time she did a week there and received my items back and it was signed. The last time she was there (last month) I send something again and it was not returned. So, I guess the answer is yes and no. It's not a theatre so perhaps they are not set up for mail like that. Live and learn....."
So your talking about below 54? Who did you adress it to? I have to aleast try
Hi guys i'm quite new at this and need some help! I sent Idina Menzel a letter to the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall where she was performing on the 24th of June and have not received a reply so is there still a chance it could come? Also thinking ahead i am wanting to send to her while she is doing the if/then tour and i don't know either to send it to the cast or just her also which venue would you recommend to send to to get a reply?

Also, has anyone sent to The Public for Shakespeare in the Park? Any success?
