Plays? Please help me im so confused!

[countrygal23]

I have a bunch of questions:

1) I have 6x9 envelopes. Is that ok?

2) I want a playbill and an autograph from the person. Can I write to the stage manager and put a picture for one of the actresses to sign. Or can i write to one of the actresses and have her sign a picture and ask for a playbill for only the actress to sign?

Hi!

Lets see if I can help you out a bit.

To answer your first question - yes, a 6x9 envelope is the perfect size for your SASE. A Playbill fits perfectly in one.

The answer to your second question:
~If you want the whole cast to sign a Playbill, then write to the Stage Manager and ask for a cast-signed Playbill.

~If you want one particular person to sign something, then address the envelope specifically to that person. Be sure to include a picture, as almost all of the performers on Broadway don't have pictures or things to sign readily available.

~If you want one particular person to sign a Playbill, then address your letter to that person, and ask them for a signed Playbill. Just be sure to include a 6x9 envelope for your SASE for the Playbill to fit in.

Hope that helped.

Yes, 6x9 envelopes work perfect for Playbills. If you want an autograph and a playbill signed by just the one person, write to them directly. And at the bottom ask if she can send you a signed playbill as well as sign your photo. Will Ferrell did this when he had his play. He'd sign people's photos and those who sent a 6x9 envelope or larger would get a signed playbill as well.

Hope that helps you!!

Hi Countrygirl,

If you are requesting a playbill you might want to consider putting at least 61 cents on the SASE. Playbills tend to weigh over 1 ounce and sometimes up to 3 ounces. I know many members have gotten successes with only 1 stamp but according to the USPS it costs more.

Good luck with your request!

Hope it helped! Best of luck with whoever you write to!

If you have any other questions just feel free to ask. We're all here to help.

And I do typically put 65cents or so postage on my SASEs for Playbills.

If you have questions about via venue (VV) just ask - I send a lot of letters VV.
