sarah, you're notorious for asking for information that can be found with a quick google search.

Doug Giffin said: "Thought I'd mention that CURSED CHILD doesn't accept mail sent directly to actors -- I sent a couple of requests that were returned with a yellow USPS "return to sender" sticker.

Same thing happened when I tried to send to "stage manager" c/o PUFFS for a signed Playbill."

This information is not true. Just like automala, I have heard of many people receiving mail back from the cast of CC - myself included. There must be something you're doing wrong, or maybe the person you're writing to just doesn't want to accept your mail and is sending it back... but Cursed Child does accept mail directly to actors.

Well, I guess I don't know why my requests (two tries to Anthony, one to Susan) were returned. I've been collecting autographs for over 20 years and I've had plenty of success requesting PLAYBILLs and other actors c/o various theaters.

The envelopes were addressed to the actors c/o the show name and theatre name, and the appropriate address. They contained photos and SASEs. They came back with yellow USPS stickers that said, "Return to sender/not deliverable as addressed/unable to forward."

Yea that’s definitely not true. I have sent to the stage manager and got a signed playbill back in like a week. I have sent to many people in the ensemble and they get back to you. I have heard back from about 4. I haven’t sent to most of the main 7. I haven’t heard anything yet, but I never received anything back saying it was not sent. I know they responded in London, hopefully they will respond before they leave.

This is a dumb q and I apologize. I googled and tried to find the answer on here but... I kept getting different answers. 

I live in the US. If I wanted to send a letter for a signed Playbill to an actor in the UK... do they charge automatically for it? Or is it similar to some Theaters in the US (as in you won't know till you mail it in and ask)? 

And.... stamp wise per usual. I normally send all my letters/SASE in a manila envelope - how many stamps should each envelope get? I really got different answers for this.. my letter is literally 1 page of a notebook paper, haha. 

Thank you!

Sorry if it's been answered before... 

I usually look through threads first to see if it's been answered, but I don't wanna sift through 218 pages ='
Anyone heard back from Christopher Fitzgerald?

Has anyone attempted to write to Jeff Daniels at TKAM? Or had success with him in the past?

[Evans2]

For the Lyceum, is the mailing address the 45th street address or the 46th street stage door address?

TIA!

My elementary chorus students are singing songs from Broadway shows for their spring program (Hamilton, DEH, Anastasia, Wicked, Newsies, School of Rock). I had the kids come up with questions to ask either the cast or specific actors/actresses. Some of the questions are ok - some I won’t use. I was thinking if some more questions to ask. What are some good questions to ask?

Quick question: has aynyone gotten anything from Be More Chill since it transferred? Just saw it Wednesday night, and was hoping to get a signed Playbill - any word on if they’re asking for a donation?

Has anyone had luck with individual HAMILTON peeps? I wanted to send something directly to Euan Morton. Thanks!

I got a couple of signed photos from Jamie Parker last week -- only took six months!

I wrote to Katrina Lenk just over a week and a half ago and got a response back from her yesterday! I sent one of the playbills I picked up when I saw The Band's Visit in January (and met her) and she wrote a note on it and signed it and sent it back to me! It was my first fanmail exchange and I'm really happy with it! It came really fast, too!

[josh147]

Just got a signed Playbill back from Be More Chill - took about 7 weeks? No donation requested. Also sent Alice By Heart at the same time - guessing that one's not going to get back to me. :)

[TheBroadwayBubble]

Anyone sent to Kelli O'Hara yet?

[10086sunset]

Can anyone help with the Circle in the square mailing address?

Is it 1633 Broadway or 235 west 50th?

Thanks in advance

I did! I sent her a Lights of broadway card and a SASE and asked her to sign it for me. She replied pretty quickly and included a little note thanking me for my letter!

[msong]

I have a tumblr dedicated to fan mail I send/receive back! It’s thebroadwayfanmail1.tumblr.com and I post whenever I get stuff back, if anyone wants to look through and see who I’ve gotten stuff back (some people include Kelli O’Hara, WIll Roland, Kate Rockwell, Ryan McCartan, etc). I also always note when I sent it and when I got it back :)

Has anyone had success with Shoshana Bean or writing to the Brooke Atkins theater during the run of WAITRESS at all? I have a poster from hairspray that signed buy some of the OBC but I would love to get her to sign.

I wrote to Shoshana on 3/14 and asked for a signed Playbill. Just got it back on 4/19!

[darreyl102]

Thank you Soo much for the info!!

[Phillytheatreguy10]

Has anyone had any luck with Jessica Vosk?  I've written twice during her run and received nothing.  I've never had trouble with Wicked and have always used the same address.

Via CIVIC CENTER in Iowa. Wrote to Betty Buckley while she was touring with 'Hello Dolly'. As it turned out, Betty when on vacation and did not perform the entire week the tour was in Iowa. I assumed I'd probably just get RTS back from the venue but today to my surprise I received both my photos back signed and inscribed!!! My guess is that they probably gave my letter to the stage manager who held on to it till Betty came back to the tour. So super excited to have these!!!!! Only took about a month.
