Feature: Christmas Gift Ideas for Broadway Fans!

Now that it's beginning to snow and rent is paid off, it is time to think about what you want for Christmas! Share this list with your loved ones to give a ever so subtle hint of what you'd like to find under the tree this year. There are many gifts to choose from whether online or at the Theatre Circle Stores in the heart of the theatre district. Here are my 8 favorites that I want to share with all of you!

1. Through the Window: Dear Evan Hansen book

You already have the Grimeree, the Rent bible, the Hamiltome. Dear Evan Hansen: Through the Window is an essential book for the theatre lover's bookshelf. Stories of the creative process, cast, libretto and lyrics are included in this hardcover book. This book can be found at Barnes and Noble online and instore. For Canadian fans, visit chapters.indigo.ca.

2. Broadway Goes Pop

Broadway Goes Pop is a company started by artist-extraodinare Amber Kempter! Kempter creates her own vinyl pop figurines inspired by the great Broadway stars and characters of today! Amber's creations have been shared not only by fans who adore the characters, but also the actors themselves from Hamilton and Dear Evan Hansen. She has a selection of premade figures and also has auctions and lotteries on the go weekly. For more information, join the Facebook group Broadway Goes Pop.

3. Playbill Pajamas

You know how there are some Christmas gifts that never go out of style - like the classic teddy bear or socks that you don't admit you need but are secretly stoked? The Playbill pajamas are a hit every year with Broadway fans. Sizes range from Small to Xtra Large in men and women. Visit Playbillstore.com today

4. Coloring Broadway Goes Pop Coloring

Broadway Goes Pop and Coloring Broadway have collaborated on a page "Coloring Broadway Goes Pop" will feature not only original artwork based off Hamilton and other fan favoirtes, but of Kempter's pop figures! So far there is one page created and will be more in the works! Join Broadway Goes Pop to see how you can get your hands on a copy!

5. BroadwayCon

The room where it happens! In the middle weekend of January, Broadway fans, actors, creators, visionairies gather to celebrate the shared love of the Great White Way. It is an opportunity to give love, share love and learn about the everchanging world of Broadway. For tickets, visit broadwaycon.com

6. Broadway Cares Collection

Everything that Broadway Cares sells is literally gold. The Broadway Diva Ornament Series, Broadway Cares: Carols for a Cure, other ornaments - it goes on! Not only would you make your Broadway fan in your life do a NEWSIES jump, you will also be supporting Broadway Cares: Equity Fights AIDS - an organization that helps individuals within the entertainment industry who are suffering from HIV/AIDS and need necessary resources. Visit BroadwayCares.org today!

7. Intermission Beauty

This is my ultimate Broadway favorite at the moment. Matte wear, cruelty/paraben/gluten-free, long lasting lip sticks named after Broadway songs and shows. There is even a MEAN GIRLS line called "Army of Skanks" with a makeup bag included! Just looking at the pictures on Instagram makes you want to melt. Retail for around $20 each with shipping. Visit intermissionbeauty.com or follow them on Instagram at Intermissonbeauty.

8. Thespian Swag

The home of the puniest, yet most desirable clothing line any fan could ask for. They have ugly HAMILTON sweaters, coloring pages, crayons named after shows. So pretty much every type of merchandise you could ever ask for that details the life of a theatre nerd - even mugs that tell you which way is stage left and right. The perfect way to make the Broadway fan in your life (or, yourself) geek out Christmas morning. Go to Thespianswag.com today!
