What Are Playbills?
Playbills are programs handed out at Broadway shows and musicals. They measure 5.5 × 8.5 inches. Inside, you'll find the cast list and show info.
Fans collect playbills to remember great shows. Each one marks a special night, a cast, a date, a memory worth keeping.
Why Shadowbox Frames Work Best
The right frame keeps playbills safe for years
Deep Frame Stops Damage
The extra depth keeps playbills away from the acrylic. No creases. No moisture damage.
Framer's Grade Acrylic
Blocks light that causes fading and yellowing. Pick standard or non-glare.
Acid-Free Mat Board
Stops yellowing and keeps paper safe over time.
Fits 5.5×8.5" Playbills
Mat openings sized for standard programs with even borders.
Ticket Stub Openings
5.5×2" slots for tickets. Show the whole night together.
Add a Brass Plaque
Engrave the show name, date, or a message. Great for gifts.
How Your Playbill Is Protected
Your playbill slides into a nesting foam board and is held flush and flat, no adhesive, no tape, no risk to the cover or binding. The 7/8" shadowbox depth protects the full booklet thickness without compression.
A precision-cut beveled mat frames the cover with clean, even borders. Protective acrylic seals the front, and foam core backing locks everything in from behind.
Five layers of solid wood, acrylic, mat, foam board, and backing work together so your playbill stays centered, protected, and looking the way it did opening night.
