Eagerly awaiting this information as well, especially for Mean Girls. Last year I got a bit of my holiday shopping via donations/sales, and did some very early during the Easter Bonnet collections.

HOH has an angel investor keeping it open for the sake of the art/message, though; I don't think Torch Song has the same.
A few questions I had, mostly on the merch/swag side: Did they give out anything, like a wristband or something? Was the Playbill any different than the usual one?

Wait, what? How did this work? (This isn't snark, I'm genuinely baffled as to what happened.)

The flip books of Bette's dinner scene? I got one for $1 and that was at the beginning of the day! What else was included
So happy I was able to go to this. Despite the (loud) crowds and people having a habit of stopping in the middle of the sidewalk so you couldn't walk (which, to be fair, happens at every flea market ever LOL), I had a marvelous time and it was definitely worth the 3 hour drive. We will be going back next year, definitely. I didn't get a chance to stop for the poster, though--does anyone know if BC/EFA sells any of the leftover posters later on in the year?
This might be a dumb question, but as a first-year flea-goer, what time do the tables open up for sales? Is it at 10am when the autograph/photo sessions start, or is it before that for some/all of the tables in people's experiences? I'm driving in from New England so I want to make sure I plan enough time for the trip!

BroadwayConcierge said: "I still think the only thing they need to work on is the ending/final 10 minutes. It’s a glorious show and a stunning production. Can’t wait for when it (eventually) arrives."
Yeah, same here. And after the Brantley love letter/rave, I'm optimistic nothing will change with the cast either.
