I’m wondering what people’s thoughts are who will be there this year. I know the last couple years have kinda sucked. But they said 60 actors are scheduled. Wondering who would people like to see this year:

Mine are

Aaron Tveit
Cheyenne Jackson
Alice Ripley
Bernadette Peters
Lea Michele
Ryan Steele.
Jonathan Groff
Matt Bomer

If the past couple years have taught us anything m, the tables will be littered with D-List soap opera stars, replacement cast members for long running musicals and the “big name” in one or two of the time slots.

I'll do the Autograph Table if Angela Lansbury, Julie Andrews, or Carol Channing participate. But seeing as how that's unlikely, I'll likely skip it again this year.

Yeah. That’s the thing. I was gonna come into the city to check out the flea market but is there realllly any point.
And yes. I would love if miss Lansbury miss Andrews and miss Channing were involved.

I’d also love if Chita Rivera and Liza Minnelli did as well!

I did the autograph table my first year in New York, which was also my first time at the Flea Market. I never went back, because it's just not my thing, but the rest of the event is!

Yes but when you get to them, the chair will be empty because they’re off taking pictures.

It sends me reeling just to imagine the rock bottom onto which one must fall in order to qualify as a D-List soap opera star.

But... as they sing in Ragtime... That's the Showbiz!

How early do people line up for these time slots? This is my first time and I really want 1 person. Any other advice?

Has the list been announced? Even if it has, It'll get revised several times before the actual date.

I’m curious of this as well.  I’m going for the first time.

Is it $35 for each celebrity? Or do you get all of them in that hour? 

 

Also it says photo prices depends on how many people want that performer. How much should I expect?

Are photos a separate line?

It's $35 for the whole session of whoever is in that hour. I've heard some people start lining up an hour ahead, which I believe. I almost didn't get in a few years ago because I showed up more towards the start of the session I wanted. The photobooth & autograph table are at the same time, so you can only do 1 or the other. And photobooth pricing I think depends on the person and popularity. Also if you end up with multiple actors if they are from the same show. I have no advice on that pricing because I've never done it.

I’d say $40 to $60 is the norm. Chita will probably be at least $100.

For photos, you tell the person manning the line and they pull you aside, until they can get that celeb to take the photo

Can you ask how much the photo is before committing to it? Vaguely considering trying for someone in particular.

They should know the price ahead of time.
