Who Have You Gotten Stuff Back From?#4200
Posted: 8/28/15 at 5:18pm

Does Mamma Mia respond? I've heard back from every long running musical (either with a signed playbill or a donation request) except for Mamma Mia.

I got a Something Rotten signed Playbill in the mail today. I think I sent my original request in April and then a check for $30 in May.

This week I replies back from Betty Buckley and Patti LuPone. I sent both of them some CD inserts and they returned them signed. I also got a personalized Playbill from Patti.

Has anyone sent a request to Hamilton lately?  For those who have, is there a donation required and how much is it?  I'd like to send one with the donation already included if it's requested.  Also, is The Kind and I sending out and do they require a donation as well?

 

Thanks in advance.

I don't know if this helps much, but off-Broadway, Hamilton was requesting $60 for a signed Playbill.  So I'm guessing you better be prepared to make that much in a donation, if not more now.

I just heard back from Peter Gallagher. I sent him the booklet to the "Idolmaker" CD I bought my mother for her birthday about three months ago and he sent it back signed and personalized for my mother.

I got a signed playbill from Marlee Matlin! I sent it to her right when previews started and I got it back on Friday. I also sent to 2 other people, so hopefully I will hear back from them soon.

I'm so excited, because about a week ago I get a reply from Rachel Bay Jones! I sent to her a couple weeks before Pippin closed, so it took almost 10 months. She signed my Christmas Story Pre-Broadway tour playbill!

You should! :) I got a Playbill back signed by him with a personal message (if your letter is of a personal nature) in three months. I sent in mid/late July and received an August Playbill in mid/late September. I did not however get a response from the stage manager in regards to my cast signed Playbill request (possibly because me being at NYU prohibits me from making a donation to BC/EFA of any amount :/ Of which I stated in the letter.) I wish you luck on a speedy return, but as he tweeted just recently, he's about three weeks being on emails, if that gives any inkling of how long it would take. But again, fingers crossed! :)

Heard back from Fool For Love and Hamilton today. Fool For Love sent me a cast-signed playbill (no donation request) and Hamilton sent me an unsigned playbill with a letter requesting a minimum $40 donation (that's unusually low considering their popularity) to BC/EFA for a cast-signed playbill. Nice of them to send me an unsigned playbill too instead of just the letter, though.

Did you send the request for Hamilton recently?  I just sent one two days ago without a donation.  Just wondering if I could follow up today with a check/note referencing my other envelopes.  Thanks for any suggestions!

@musicman_bwayfan I sent to Therese Raquin and Old Times yesterday, but I'm not really expecting anything to come of it. In the past year, I have yet to receive a response from a Roundabout production. But, I'll post it here if I do get something back.

Has anyone had an experience with a check donation to BC/EFA in exchange for a signed playbill being cashed, but you did not receive a signed playbill as indicated by the SM? That happened to me when Hamilton was Off Broadway. SM wanted a $60 donation to BC/EFA in exchange for a playbill and a couple weeks later I noticed that the check had been cashed, but I never received a playbill. It's too late to do anything about that now, but, in the future, if that were to happen again, what should I do? The money still went to a good organization, but I was very disappointed that I did not receive what was promised to me.

I sent a letter to Alex Sharp at the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night time in August. Then in September he said on twitter he had recieved it and would read it later in the week. Its now the end of October and I have still not heard back and yes I included an envelope with postage addressed to me.

I asked for a signed playbill, since mine was lost. Very sad.
