Who have you gotten stuff back from?- Page 204

Has anyone gotten back cast-signed Playbills from Lobby Hero, Three Tall Women, Escape to Margaritaville, Frozen, Angels in America, Farinelli and the King, Carousel, and Mean Girls?

I also want to send to Rocktopia, but I'm not sure if any of the cast members will sign since shows like these (ex: Home for the Holidays) don't reply to fan mail.

I sent to Farinelli way before it closed and I haven't gotten anything back yet. I sent to Lindsay Mendez asking for a signed preview Playbill and have been wanting to send to the stage manager asking for a preview Playbill.

Somewhere else on this board, someone said they sent to Angels in America and haven't received anything yet, but I want to hear from other people.

As well as Carousel, I want to send to Three Tall Women asking for a signed preview Playbill.

Someone on this board said they've heard back from Escape to Margaritaville, but I want to hear if anyone else has received back from them.

I don't know if Frozen asks for BC/EFA donations, but I feel it's unlikely considering Disney shows don't ask for them, but I just want to hear if other people have gotten notes asking for donations.

And finally, in a different thread, someone said when they were going to stage door at Lobby Hero, the security guy just handed him a cast-signed Playbill. So I believe they do those as well.



sorry this was sooooooo long.

3.5 months later, I got a signed playbill sent back from Anastasia’s Derek and Christy!
In large part I was glad to get it back because I knew it meant they’d gotten the letters I sent.

That was a fantastic thing to see when I checked my mailbox!

I don't think Lobby Hero has any set plan for what they do at the stage door- was there on Wed, Chris and Brandon signed (Chris was very quick and got as many as he could and was very kind) , Bel signed for one person on the opposite side of the barricade that asked her to- don't know if Cera ever came out, they definitely did not give any playbills to anyone.

I’ve heard back from Lobby Hero and it was rather quick, about a week or so. Also finally heard back from Spongebob this week after sending at the end of  November

I FINALLY received a cast-signed Playbill from Spongebob after sending on January 27 of this year.

A week before Frozen’s opening, I got a individually signed Frozen playbill in the mail from Patti Murin (no donation requested).  Pretty quick turnaround (as I had sent out my fan mail at the beginning of March).

Has anyone heard back from Rachel Bay Jones lately? I sent to her in September and have yet to hear back from her.
Also, any tips for sending to West End shows? I’m planning on sending to Kelli O’Hara once The King and I opens in London.

Received a signed playbill from Dame Diana Rigg today, exactly a week after I sent out my letter! Fastest turnaround I've had with fanmail!

What shows do NOT ask for donations?

Come From Away, School of Rock, Aladdin, Phantom, The Lion King, TBOM, Wicked, The Play That Goes Wrong, Spongebob (They should be sending out cast-signed Playbills now), and Escape for Margaritaville. These shows should not be asking for donations.

Also, does anyone know if Waitress and Beautiful ask for donations? If so, how much?

And does Hello, Dolly! still ask for donations?

Thanks!

Has anyone sent to and received a reply from Daphne Rubin-Vega before? I really want to send to her while she's in Miss You Like Hell, but I don't want to lose the sticker I'm sending her to sign because it has another signature on it and I don't want to lose it. Thanks, guys!

I will be seeing Hamilton in Chicago in 10 days!!! I will probably not stage door, does the Chicago company respond to cast-signed playbill requests?

Sorry, but what's the address for Miss You Like Hell? Also wanting to send to Daphne. Thanks!

Great mail day. 

Heard back from Glenda Jackson who signed my Playbill and also got a cast signed Mean Girls.

I'm hearing from others that Lindsay Mendez replies to fan mail. I sent to her at the beginning of previews, but haven't heard back yet. Has anyone sent to her and heard back?

Also, does anyone know if Carousel, Mean Girls, and Frozen ask for donations? If so, how much?

And does Waitress and Hello, Dolly! still, ask for donations? If so, how much?

Thanks!

Has anyone heard back for In the Heights (Kennedy Center)? I sent on March 19th and have not heard back. I have heard people have gotten a playbill, but I have not. I sent it to the stage manager.

I have. I forgot the date I sent it, but I believe it was a few days before the show opened or the day it opened. Don't lose hope though, it took a bit for mine to get back as well.

I heard back from Lindsay in less than 2 weeks! Dolly requires (at least) $100, and Waitress is a hit or miss. I received a cast signed Playbill without donation but I have heard of others requesting for one and being asked for a donation.

Thanks!
