Leaving Something at the Stage Door To Be Signed

Hello everyone! I had a quick question about a practice that I feel isn't very common. Has anyone had success leaving an item at the stage door to be signed, then coming back to pick it up later in the day? I'm coming into the city in a couple weeks, and I am attending the final performance of She Loves Me.  As many probably know Laura Benanti has been so gracious to send out signed playbills to those waiting to get her autograph. She really is a class act for doing that (not that it's expected that she has to do that or do anything for that matter). I like to buy a window card and try to get it signed by the cast when I go see a show. Seeing that Laura doesn't sign on an individual basis, I was going to try to buy a window card in advance of seeing the show, and try to leave it at the theatre around noon (on a two show day), and come to try to pick it up around 5 or 6. Does this seem like something that would work? I would just love to have her autograph on the poster. Any insight would be amazing!

Laura has mentioned to people on Twitter to leave things at the stage door for her to sign, so I don't see why that couldn't work for you.

I would recommend only leaving an item that you are willing to NOT get back. Anything left is not their responsibility so leave it at your own risk. Clearly put your name/address on it. Usually if it is an item that can be mailed I would suggest including a self addressed stamped envelope and just let it get mailed back but your poster is big. I also would not expect it to be signed same day. That is asking a bit much to put a time on your request. Good luck.

If you're going to do this, I would try to get a response from her on twitter beforehand, to make sure she's aware & cool with it.
