Saw If/Then tonight. They had posters for $200 and were out of signed playbills. Anthony announced that they've only been fundraising for a few performances, but have already raised $30,000. I bought a poster - it's for a great cause and I made sure, it really is the entire cast including swings. You also get the full Idina signature, not the squiggle that she signs at the stage door. Definitely worth it and there didn't seem to be that many left.
I saw "The Phantom of the Opera" tour in Philadelphia on Thursday. They were selling posters signed by the cast for $60. I bought one. They were also selling printed notes actually used as props in the show -- the notes from the Phantom to the managers, to Carlotta, etc. The notes, which the actor playing the Phantom autographed, were going for $100. Interestingly, the Phantom was played by a cover on Saturday, and I think he was the one signing the notes, although the posters contained the signature of Cooper Grodin, the regular Phantom, because the posters need to be pre-signed.
In the fall 2012 and fall 2013 campaigns, POTO on Broadway was selling a variety of items. In fall 2012, I spent $10 to get my picture taken with the then-Raoul. For $5, they sold pink-ribboned pins (breast cancer) and red-ribboned pins (AIDS), each with the mask logo. Posters signed by the whole cast were, I think, $40 each. At the end of each show, the Phantom (Hugh Panaro in 2012, and Greg Mills, a cover, in 2013) signed one music-box monkey, which was available for $500. I think there may have been one or two other items, but I don't remember.
Audrey, the Phantom Phanatic, who nonetheless would rather be Jean Valjean, who knew how to make lemonade out of lemons.
This is the Last week to pick up the limited edition prints from The Lion King and from A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder. All signed limited edition prints.
Wicked's 2nd national tour (Munchkinland) had "go green" bags for $20, aprons (don't remember the cost), backstage tours for $60, signed window cards for $100, and sheet music signed by Stephen Schwartz for $250.
Usually the very end of October and runs until the early part of December (ending either on the 1st or 2nd Sunday depending on how the calendar works).
Anyone finding out anything new? Is Bullets Over Broadway doing anything?
You need to get a receipt. (Can't speak for Canada)
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
