Hi,

i am visiting NYC soon and was wondering if it is possible to ask the theatre for a playbill of a closed show (American Idiot). Do you know if theatres in general will carry them?

I'd be willing to make a charity donation or pay for it.

I am also looking to ask for a phantom playbill, preferably with Hugh Panaro (since that is who I saw a couple of years ago, my first broadshow show ever ) So please let me know if you know whether the Majestic theatre allows that.

Thanks for the help!

Unfortunately the theaters do not have playbills for closed shows or past casts. Try eBay or a playbill trader.

The St. James won't have one. Try eBay, as Marianne says.

Although often more expensive than EBay, Playbill.com sells opening night and special event issues of Playbills from many shows.  They are mint condition.

They don't have Idiot, though. It was six years ago.

The Flea Market is probably your best bet if you're looking for one on the cheap. However, it only happens once a year.
