"Did anyone write to Bebe Neuwirth?"
I wrote to her about a week ago. I'm not holding my breath though.. but it would be nice to hear back!
Just got a signed headshot back from Julia Murney with a lovely note on the back. Took under two weeks!

I wrote Bebe. But I'm not sure if I'll get something back. My letter way waaayyy cheesy anyway haha.
Just recieved a signed photo from Nigel Planer of himself as the Wizard in 'Wicked' in London.
It took about a month and a bit for him to respond but at least I have something rather than nothing :)
Got a signed photo back from Jonathan Groff with a little note on the back. :) Can't wait to see him in Spring Awakening!

I also just got a signed headshot from Jonathan Groff today. His note was so sweet. It took him about three weeks, which rocked.
I got mail from Jon Groff today as well. Took a week and a half!
Anyone heard from Saltzberg, Howard, Craig, or Gemignani lately?

"Has anyone received a signed window card (poster)? "
That's a little much, don't you think?
I mean to ask for a playbill or a picture is one thing..but to ask for a poster that would require extra packaging? I highly doubt the actors have unlimited access to window cards.. they cost like $20.

I was planning to send my own window card with a self addressed envelope with prepaid postage. What are my chances for a signature?
LionKingfan, I guess you will hear from folks who might have done that and they will tell you whether they got it back. IMO, it is huge undertaking both for you (finding a mailer for the poster to the theatre as well as including a mailer for the poster to be returned, all with adequate cardboard and postage to keep it safe) and the actors. If you do send it, I wouldn't get your hopes up. IMO, it is an imposition on the actors, not that I am judging you or your motivations, which I know are good intentions. I just think it is too much to ask.
I think it is better that you go to the show and have the actors sign the window card as they exit the theatre.

Staples sell flat envelopes that dont bend. So I wont need any cardboard. So I was planning to use two envelopes.
Well give it a whirl and let us know how it goes. I wish you the best on it. :)

I've sort of given up on this kind of thing. I'd do it more but there are just so many I don't get back.
I really want a signed headshot from Jesse L. Martin. I sent him a letter and a SASE a while ago but I kinda gave up hope.
The same for Adam Pascal.
Anyone have any contacting information for those two, I'd appreciate it!
Edit: And Sutton Foster who I've written to twice. Once in Little Women and once in Drowsy. I know most people have had luck with her...not me
Megan Hilty has sent me a picture and a note. I sent a letter to Kristin Chenoweth, but she hasn't responded yet and it has been like 7 months. That doesn't matter because I met her at The Apple Tree stage door and got her autograph which is better anyway.

John Tartaglia! I got mail from John Tartaglia! This made my day! It's a picture of him as Lumiere. It's quite cute. :)
I got mail from Julia Murney today!
She sent me a signed picture of her in her Act 2 costume...with a nice note on the back. It only took her about a week and a half! I love her!!
mrs felciano, When did you write to John Tartaglia? I wrote to him on January 10th but haven't heard of him ever writing back to anyone. This is a first.

Traci - I don't know exactly when I wrote him.. but it was a few weeks after he started in Beauty and the Beast. I'm not sure when that was.. I didn't think I was going to get anything back! I was very happy today when I opened the mail! :)
Lucky you Mrs. Felciano! I mailed him around the same time you posted mailing him, so hopefully I will get something in the mail soon...
I got mail from John Tartaglia today! He sent back the photo of he and I, signed, as well as the promotional shot of him as Lumiere with a cute little note.
I also got mail today from John Tartaglia. I thought it would never come, but it did. His picture as Lumiere makes me laugh...Yay!
Just recieved 2 photos from Kendra Kassebaum :)
