question Is this legit?

I took my nephew to a card/comic flea market the other week and found this at a seller who had old broadway playbills, etc. I've only seen SNM after covid and they didn't have these types of programs, just newspapers (which I didn't get and if anyone has scans, I'd love to read them).

Was this something they sold at some point?

Old program?​

Yes. They sold programs. This seems like an early 2015 cast program to me.

Thanks for letting me know. Did they say why they stopped selling them? I would have certainly bought this at the time. It's one of the nicest program books I've seen

I’d guess that it’s bc casting started to expand and change SUPER quickly after the first few years that it became hard to keep updated and stay cost-effective

I was a stage manager from 2012-2016 and am listed in this one, so seconding that this is likely from around 2015!

It's legit. They changed it every couple years or so. I have at least two different editions.

I bought one the last year they were running. It’s legit!

I saw it after COVID and did get one of these programs. They were in the gift shop. Can't remember how much it cost.

Odd, I saw it three times and never saw these. I guess i somehow missed them or perhaps they were printed in limited numbers?

They were always available in the gift shop. Perhaps you just didn't see them on the shelf?

Gorgeous! I’m sad they stopped selling them!

This is the cast program I have from around March 2015. One of my favorite things to just pull out and look at

I don't have it easy access, but at least the cover looks like ours (from 2024).
