First Broadway preview of "Lestat" - signed by the full cast
The record-breaking performance of "The Phantom of the Opera"

And, not a Playbill or Broadway...but a signed program from a Russian ballet company that performed "The Bluebird" here during the Gorbachev era. I was eleven and it was one of the loveliest things I'd seen.

Mine would be the closing playbill for Doyle's Sweeney Todd, which I dipped in "blood" during the intermission.

The most valuable piece of theatre memorablilia I own is the program (not a "Playbill") from the original Off-Broadway production of Rent at New York Theatre Workshop, signed by all the principals.

Also, though I certainly wasn't there to see the production, I'm fond of my (unsigned) Playbill for the original Broadway production of Kiss Me Kate with Alfred Drake.

All the playbills (Big River and Mary Poppins) that were autographed by Daniel Jenkins. Each has a different personal message to me

For the 1960 Alec Wilder musical, "Kittiwake Island", which ran for only 7 performances, starring a young Lanie Kazan. But my most prized playbill is the programme my grandfather gave me from the Palace Theatre, Manchester, of the world premiere in 1950 of Noel Coward's musical play, "Ace of Clubs".
