I got mail from Orfeh today. Unfortunatly, not headshot. But she sent me a playbill that she wrote a note on. It was a cute note. She even drew hearts all over my enevelope like I did on hers. She ended her note by saying "Bend and Snap! Love Orfeh!" She's cute. :)

I got my playbill back from Alexander Gemignani that I sent out 3 weeks ago and it's signed by the entire cast of Les Miz. OH MY GOD. I'm in heaven.
Has anyone recently managed to get something back from Celia Keenan Bolger? I sent her a letter back in February when she was in Les Mis but havent recieved anything since she left.
Also I was wondering has anyone had luck on getting stuff back from Megan Hilty, Jenna Leigh Green & Jodi Benson?
Thanks :)
mikey-
I never heard back from Celia either. I wrote to her towards the end of her run in Spelling Bee and got nothing back. But I did write to Jenna Leigh Green when she was in Wicked and got a headshot a few weeks later.
Just recieved a photo signed by Adam Garcia as Fiyero in London

Does anyone know what Celia's autograph looks like? I'm trying to find it on my playbill and I don't know where it is.
It kind of looks like Ce Ke - B (the first letters of each name). Keep an eye out for the dash. It is big.

I don't see it : (
Maybe she didn't sign it.
mikey - I wrote to Megan Hilty when she was on Broadway and I got something about 3 weeks later.

Cast of Journey's End. I saw a matinee and only about half the cast came out after it was over and it was raining so I didn't get anyone. Sent my Playbill to the theatre explaining the situation and within the week got it back signed - THANKS !!

That's great that the rest of them signed it. I don't think I would send a playbill that has already been signed partially though. Not after I lost my Drowsy playbill. I'm thinking about writting to the cast of Spring Awakening. Who's had luck with them?
I haven't got much, but I did get something. I sent the BatB cast a letter (this was back in 2005) and got two items in return.
~Signed Playbill - BatB Cast
~Signed promo photo and letter from Ashley Brown
What amazed me about the Playbill was that I didn't send them one - they just had the cast sign one as a thank-you for my letter.
Today I got A Playbill From Orfeh which is signed by her and Andy

The ones with stars are the ones I cant seem to find an address for. For JLT, should I send a letter to the Gershwin and hopefully they could forward it to her you think? If anyone here can help with the ones that have stars on or maybe give me some advice with the ones i'm losing hope on, I would be very much grateful :)
Has anyone ever delivered their mail to the theater? Just wondering.
I've done it a few times, but all under extenuating circumstances. Stage door attendants are sometimes kind of relucatnt to let you leave things if you haven't made prior arrangements with a cast member -- I think maybe it's something they're technically not supposed to do -- but, occasionally they can be convinced.
I've left letters at the theater a couple of times and haven't had a problem doing it. It probably depends on the theater, time of day, how nice you are about it.
