| 100 years ago (re: the 90s) I had a slew of friends in the Les Mis national tour and for Christmas they got me a coveted personalized Les Mis cast jacket. I feel like I’ve not seen those in forever. Are they still a thing on Broadway or on tour? Does anyone remember the Easter Bonnet song about cast jackets from 97-98? |

| No. And if you see someone wearing one, beware. |

| I have a show Jacket from PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. It was bought and given to me by Judy Kaye as a gift with my initials embroidered on it. The sleeve are real leather. I got THE RINK Broadway Cares Ebay. I t has leather sleeves and is purple. and I got another of MAMA MIA which I won from Ebay from the Touring Company. I love them. |

| Didn't someone ask this exact same question here about a month ago? I remember envying people with show jackets. I got so excited when I finally got one and then another. The first one is now way too small for me and the second one makes me look fatter than I am. So they're both in storage. Maybe I should sell them? Randomly, I had one for "The Simpsons" at one point. It might be in storage too. | |

| I've won several beautiful cast jackets on ebay. Black wool with black leather sleeves and stunning embroidery. | |

| They aren't really a thing any more. Some shows may give light jackets or vests with the show logo on the arm or front breast for a gift, but the show jackets from the 80s and 90s are pretty much a thing of the past. | |

| I was bidding in a charity auction for a show jacket from the last SWEENEY TODD revival. The total went over $100, and I told my husband, “That’s it. I’m out.” He said, “Shut up and keep bidding. And happy anniversary.” I love that jacket. Laura in LA, still relieved it didn’t go too much over $100… |
