I sent a letter and a IRC to Sir Ian McKellen to: -

RSC
The Courtyard Theatre
Stratford-upon-Avon
Warwickshire
CV37 6BH
UK

as I didn't know that he would be performing in Australia! :mad:

I received an email awhile later: -

Dear Mr _____
Thank you for your enquiry. We can send you a copy of the programme for King Lear with Ian Mckellen but unfortunately we can't get it autographed for you as he is no longer at the RSC. If your request had come a little earlier then we would have been able to have left it at stage door for him to sign. However we will send the programme out to you in the next few days.
Assuring you of our best attention at all times,

Sarah Holt
RSC Mail Order Supervisor.


Today, I received the unsigned programme.

Better than nothing, I guess :neutral:

Ok it's not an autograph, but it's nice that they send you a programme.

Sad is, that I send a letter in June to the same address (when Ian was still there) and I never got something back. Well maybe he took it with him and signs it letter. I hope the best. ;-)

Angel45,

I hope you get something back - if not, a programme at least! {thumb2}
