When I sent to Chris McCarrell (Marius in Les Miserables), he answered in less than a week! He signed all the pictures I sent and also wrote little messages or quotes on them. He also drew a mustache on one of his headshots! A SASE was sent. 

When Sierra Boggess was in School of Rock, I sent her a picture for her to send back. In my letter, I had written about how much I loved the Little Mermaid and that it was my first Broadway show. She then sent me a Little Mermaid postcard with her on it and wrote, "Sofia, you are so enough. Xoxo, Sierra Boggess". That took a little less than 2 weeks, she was super quick. A SASE was sent.

I also sent a letter to Laura Osnes' agency, she took a little over 2-3 months to answer. She signed both pictures I sent her and wrote a little note on a post-it thanking me for supporting her and my kind words. A SASE was sent.

Also, a couple days before She Loves Me closed, I sent a letter to Laura Benanti and some pictures. Has anyone heard back from her lately. I understand she's been very busy, I just admire her very much.

Welp I tried sending my Hamilton playbill to get signed only by Jasmine Cephas Jones and Renee Elise Goldsberry before she leaves but I lucked out and I got the little paper that says they only give signed playbills during fundraising times.

I'm a little bummed but I understand since it's insanely popular. Better luck next time ??.

Has anyone on these boards ever written to Sherie Rene Scott? I would love to send her a request at The Front Page, but don't want a huge risk of not getting some stuff back. Thanks!

A friend of mine in The Lights of Broadway Facebook group heard back from the cast of The Bronx Tale (he requested a signed Playbill and had written to Ariana DeBose).

A Bronx Tale is asking for a minimum $25 donation to BCEFA for a signed playbill, and Great Comet sent me an unsigned playbill with a note saying that they are unable to accommodate requests for cast-signed playbills.

Nice. I'm going to send to them once somebody said that they heard back from them.

Has anyone tried The Book of Mormon? The cast is very nice, but do they return signed playbills?

Dear Evan Hansen is asking for a $40 donation to BCEFA in exchange for a signed playbill.

I love that show! I haven't sent anything to them, but you should at least try, since it's leaving in two weeks.

"about 2 years ago I wrote to Gavin Creel while he was still with the company  and he replied, so I'm sure others would. He took about 6 months so I'm sure others would take around the same but it's worth a try right?

I recently saw DEH and got the entire cast's signatures sans Benn Platt. If I were to send my Playbill back for just him to sign, do you think I would still need to send the $40 donation? I tweeted the twitter account and they didn't mention a donation, but I would hate to send it and risk not getting it back/not getting a signature.

 

Thanks!
