I saw Spamalot the Wed. before Azaria and Hyde Pierce left but when I got my Playbill signed Azaria and Kennedy didnt come out. So then next day I overnighted my half-signed Playbill to Lauren Kennedy with a nice note asking for her and Azaria's signatures, along with a pre-paid envelope to send it back. It has been 2 weeks and I still havent heard back from her. I hope if she didnt get Azaria to sign she can at least send me back my Playbill, because otherwise I wont be able to get Hyde Pierce's signature again.

9. How come "So-and-so" did not respond to my e-mail? I am very angry and distraught!
They probably did not answer because their lives are quite busy. Another way of contacting them is through regular mail via the USPS.
10. How the heck do I do that?
Send your letter to the care of the theatre that the actor/ress is currently performing at followed by the address of the theatre. It's common courtesy to include a Self Addressed Stamped Envelope for the performer to put their reply in. If you requested a sign headshot, include a bigger envelope, around 9x11 and include some cardboard backing as well and a fair amount of stamps. The cardboard backing is optional, but it really helps from wrinkles and folds.
11. Okay. I wrote my letter, but I don't know where to send it to! Where is the Gerswhin, dammit!?
I assume you're writing to Shoshana or Megan.
This is an example of how it should be addressed.
Shoshana Bean
C/O The Gershwin Theatre Stage Door
222 West 51st Street
New York, NY 10019
12. NO! I'm not writing to Shoshana! And I lied, I'm REALLY writing to Sara Ramirez.
Okay. Then replace "Shoshana Bean" with "Sara Ramirez", and "Gershwin" with "Shubert" and the address of the Gershwin theatre with the address of the Shubert.
13. But I don't know where that is.
http://www.playbill.com/events/event_detail/5263.html
It is under "Theatre Information".
And in case you decide to change your mind AGAIN:
http://www.playbill.com/events/listing/1.html
There are all the addresses to the theatres. Happy writing.

~Idina Menzel (hrrrrm, she actually signed my RENT bible twice, inner cover, and then I happen to get an I-squiggle on the over the moon page on another occasion; SWIWS playbill addressed to me [SASE], palm card from 08.04.05 (which I gave to a friend...), I never did do the Wicked stagedoor when she was around...
~Jennifer Garner (not Broadway, but I still <3 her), when 1330 was filming in NY.
~BKLYN Closing Performance - entire case
~Various casts of Wicked (Phillip Spaeth has always signed my playbill. Never had a JLT, though. *tear*)
~Mary Testa
~Aaron Stram
~Both of my RENT cd covers have the entire main movie cast sans Jesse L. Martin and Idina Menzel.
~Various cast members from RENT last summer...because after you will a Wednesday matinee there's really nothing to do after the show.
Ehh... I'm lazy to do the stage door thing half the time. My folks aren't exactly cooperative... and it doesn't help that I see most of my shows in the winter time.

Posted: 4/16/06 at 6:41pmJustChillin, headshots are 8x10, so anything bigger. You can easily find envelopes that are the size of a standard sheet of paper.
