@pc1145N2 how did you address your package to Michael Cerveris? I'm about to send to Beth Malone.

I got playbills in the last week or two signed by the casts of On the Twentieth Century, Of Good Stock, and An Act of God (with a donation) :) Very happy!
PM me if you're interested in purchasing or trading signed playbills! I have a large collection! :)
"I recently wrote to Kelli O'Hara, and her Playbill will probably be the most special to me. For one, it's from the show she won her first Tony for, so that's cool. In my letter I mentioned that I was a huge theatre geek, and in the written response (which was on Lincoln Center stationary) she said that there was no such thing as a theatre geek and said I was a "theatre badass." On my playbill she addressed it to my name, then in parentheses "Theatre Badass""
Heard back from An American in Paris today. Recieved a cast signed playbill with no donation required. Took a month :) I know some people haven't heard back, I used the address on playbill.com and wrote it exactly how they have it!
Weird. I wrote to AAIP and only received an unsigned pride playbill?

I have a question, when sending a letter to an actor or show asking for signed playbill, does anyone send cash to pay for the return shipping? Or is it not required?

Um, you should always include a self-addressed and stamped envelope if you are requesting a Playbill. Not including that is pretty discourteous. I mean, even sending cash means that an actor or stage manager is going to have to go out of his or her way to buy stamps and perhaps proper envelopes to send a Playbill.
I think, perhaps, the only time it is acceptable to send cash instead is for people who are writing from out side the United States who do not have a way to buy U.S. international stamps.
Does anyone have an address where I could send Carol Channing fan mail? I've looked online, but none of the sources seem legit. Has anyone heard back from her? I really want to send my Hello Dolly playbill to her.
Went to the mail today and found one of my SASE!! Always get excited and when I opened it, it was a cast signed Pride playbill from FN. I sent my playbill in after seeing the show in April and totally forgot about it. Bummed to see they have gone to black and white but so stoked.
Now ow just waiting for my Fun Home playbill request that I sent along with my playbill but to be honest I've kinda given up hope on that one
I got my playbill from FN today as well and was happy to see that it was a pride playbill. I gave up hope on them a long time ago and bought a cast-signed playbill from them for $20.

How long ago did you both send a request to Finding Neverland? I sent mine 2 months ago do you think i will get one in a few days? As i live in the UK it would take longer to get to me
I just got back my program from the Phantom 25th anniversary RAH performance that I sent to Ramin to sign. I sent it last September so overall it took around 11 months.
You got something back from Ramin Karimloo today? I sent to him a few weeks ago and its funny you posted that because I was curious as to when he would respond.
Okay, awesome! That's what my guess is too. I sent to him mid July so hopefully he sends me back a Les Mis Playbill soon before he leaves the show. Congrats on getting your program back after so long!
I sent to Taylor Trensch at The Curious Incident in late July/ early August. I also sent to Alysha U at On the Town in early August. I just recieved back from A and she sent a lovely note and got some of the cast to sign a playbill for me. Overall took about two weeks. I'm still waiting for a reply from Taylor though.
