| I have 54 Playbill binders in my living room filled with Broadway playbills filed by date. I don't have the programs from the first three Broadway shows that I saw (The Sound Of Music, Here's Love and Oliver!) but every Broadway show that I've ever seen since. The first one is Baker Street--Matinee on October 9, 1965. The Broadway Theater. Seat J 11. $6.25. Since these are binders with posts, it's easy to keep the ticket stubs too. I do look at the programs periodically especially if I'm seeing a revival of something that I previously saw. Many of the shows I don't remember (Vivat! Vivat Regina!) but it's a lifetime of memories. The programs are one of my most prized possessions. Yes, they will go in the garbage one day. No one wants them. But they mean a lot to me. Off Broadway programs and Lincoln Center programs are in shoe boxes filed by date. |
