Posted: 7/15/07 at 10:52amI have not received anything from Ms. McDonald either and it's been 4 months. However, she's going to be at Ravinia in late August so I have a chance there.

Posted: 7/18/07 at 10:58amHas anyone ever gotten anything back from Angela Lansbury? I'd love to get an autograph for my grandmom.

Finally, I got my signed Playbill back from the Spring Awakening cast. It took a while, but it's here.
Still waiting for:
Avenue Q CD insert from John Tartaglia
Carosel CD insert from Audra McDonald
Jersey Boys Playbill
110 in the Shade Playbill
Inherit the Wind Playbill
The Year of Magical Thinking
I realize some of those are probably pipe-dreams....but I still hope for the CD inserts and the Jersey Boys Playbill.
For the record, all of these autograph requests were made because I was inspired by this thread. Even if I don't get any more things back, it was really fun reading this thread and then contributing to it.

Posted: 7/18/07 at 3:40pmI too would like to know about if Angela Lansbury signs. I have a few things I'd love for her to sign, but I'd rather not bother her for it outside the theater in case there are throngs of people.

Posted: 7/19/07 at 12:06amchinkie- I mailed the letter a couple days before 110 went into previews. I asked her about it when I met her at 110 and she said she likes to write back to letters she receives, so I don't know what the deal is.

Posted: 7/19/07 at 1:37amI sent a letter to her more than two weeks ago, so let's see what happens. I also sent letters to Raul Esparza, Curtis Holbrook, Angela Lansbury, and Lea Salonga. Nothing has come yet.

I believe Spring Awakening waits and sends out loads of mail at one time. Because some people get things in 2 weeks (Including me) and for some, it takes time.
Recently I have received a playbill signed by the cast of Wicked and a Playbill signed by the 4 seasons in Jersey Boys.

Posted: 7/20/07 at 12:51amI have only ever written once to a broadway show. I wrote to Will Kemp after I saw him in Swan Lake. I didn't even ask for anything. Then like a week later I get a personlized letter in the mail, with a little swan drawn on the back of it. Yes, it was a letter from Will Kemp, along with a signed little head shot. Very sweet. I still have to this day in my swan Lake Program

Posted: 7/21/07 at 5:05pmI just got a signed Deuce plabill and a typed note from Angela Lansbury in the mail today!
#1038re: Who have you gotten stuff back from?
Posted: 7/21/07 at 8:00pm^ Awesome! Did you send her a self-addressed envelope or simply write her? I take it you didn't send her the playbill, she just took one and sent it off to you, right?

I didn't send a SASE, she sent the playbill in one envelope and the letter in another. The note said:
I thought it was interesting that it said it has renewed her energy to continue acting after there was that playbill.com article about her retiring. I can't tell if the autograph on the note are real or not because it's a form letter. But it's still really nice of her! It took a little over two weeks for her to respond.

It doesn't quite look like my autograph from the stage door - but maybe she scribbles more when she's in a rush to get a bunch of autographs done. Either way, very nice of her to send the letter.
Yes, in an interview with NBC Today she said she has absolutely no desire to retire. I think when she is talking about Deuce being a conclusion for her, she means she is retiring from the stage. Even on "The View" this spring she said she plans to make a "good two-hour" Jessica Fletcher feature. So we'll see.

Posted: 7/22/07 at 1:20amToday I got a signed headshot from Laura Bell Bundy :) She is gorgeous!
#1043re: Who have you gotten stuff back from?
Posted: 7/22/07 at 9:57amThat's odd, I wrote Lansbury about a month ago and two weeks later I had me a headshot.

I got a signed Playbill back from Xanadu yesterday but I think it's missing the signatures of Mary Testa, Kerry Butler and Cheyenne Jackson.
Is anyone a sleuth enough to tell me if those three are on there? Most of them are fairly easy to check off....but of course, those 3 are toughest.
Thanks.

Posted: 7/22/07 at 7:03pm^ I know I'm out of the loop but I didn't know Mary Testa was in Xanadu and I think she's just great. I may reconsider seeing this now, provided she stays in it.

Pc - Who did you write to for the Xanadu playbill?
