Well, after fearing that I lost my "Les Misérables" in concert CD insert because I got the dates for Philip Quast's appearance in "La Cage aux Folles" wrong, my worries were put to rest today when I received the envelope in the mail, accompanied by a lovely new black and white photo. The CD insert will be sent out promptly next week to Jenny Galloway, who played Madame Thénardier in the concert and is currently appearing in "Mary Poppins" on Broadway. Unfortunately, the arrival of this autograph brought some news to my attention: the price of postage in the UK has increased, and I just sent out a fresh batch of letters yesterday with the old postage on it. I put my own address as the return address, so hopefully they'll get back to me safe and sound, but still... I won't stop wondering until I get them back! For the time being, though, I'm very content with my CD insert which, thanks to Mr. Quast, is slowly working its way to completion.

NOT SURE IF THE ADDRESS IS STILL VALID... TO BE SAFE, I'D ASSUME IT'S NOT

Hi !

NiCe SuCcEsS !

Congratulations on your Philip Quast success - I also have his and Jenny Galloway's signatures. I like the new photo, as well. Of the dream cast I think I'd probably like to get Alun Armstrong and Lea Salonga next.

It's not.

I lost a multi-signed item earlier this year which put me off a bit (understatement). I hope you get it back safe and sound.

I still have to get Colm Wilkinson, Michael Ball, Alun Armstrong, and Lea Salonga added, although I hear Wilkinson is fairly easy to get. I'm with you, though, in that Armstrong and Salonga are my two most-wanteds.
I'm so sorry to hear about your multi-signed loss... I've lost a few myself, and the feeling of going out to get the mail every day hoping to get it and then finally realizing it's not going to come really sucks. The only thing that really keeps me sending multi-signed things out is how awesome they look when they're completed. That and I always send a letter beforehand making sure they sign TTM. I hope you have great luck sending multi-signeds out in the future!

Oh, I didn't know he signed. I'll have to try him.

Thanks . I was 99.9% it would come back, and then I opened the envelope only to find it wasn't there. I don't want to give up on multi-signed items altogether, though, because they do look amazing and they're worth the effort.

Good luck

Colm Wilkinson's contact page (http://www.colmwilkinson.com/contact.html) gives an address and then says below that if you send along a SASE you'll get a signed photo. I'd assume they wouldn't promise an autograph if he didn't sign TTM, so that's why I say he's easy to get. Let me know if you get something back from him as I probably won't get my letter out for a while.

Thanks for the info. I'll put him on my list!
