[As part of a charity auction](https://www.charitybuzz.com/catalog%5Fitems/498504), a fan and a friend will be able to see one of the final performances of _No Man’s Land_ or _Waiting for Godot_ and then take photos with the cast. You could be that statue: > [](https://twitter.com/SirPatStew/status/393070455495876608) You could be that soccer…er…_foot_ball (don’t offend your new besties): > [](https://twitter.com/SirPatStew/status/429274877884121089) You could be one of those party blowers: > [](https://twitter.com/SirPatStew/status/418063614944481280) You could be SANTA: > [](https://twitter.com/SirPatStew/status/413352995297189888) This is the only time you’ve ever been jealous of a Times Square Elmo: > [](https://twitter.com/SirPatStew/status/378569295417987074) While co-stars Billy Crudup and Shuler Hensley will also be available for selfie photo opps, auction organizer [Charitybuzz](http://www.charitybuzz.com) indicated via email that the real draw is “everyone’s favorite bromantic couple.” In our wildest dreams, Patrick Stewart would come in his [lobster costume](Does Patrick Stewart keep his lobster costume and a tub of Wet Ones on hand at all times? Is there a makeshift ball pit hidden in the wings of the theater? ). The auction ends March 25\. And while the current highest bid is at $2,750, it’s expected to hit $5,000\. Proceeds go to Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/30431/patrick-stewart-ian-mckellen-selfie/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/30431/patrick-stewart-ian-mckellen-selfie/"},"headline":"You Can Now Take the Selfie of Your Dreams with Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen","datePublished":"2014-03-19T17:58:53.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:07:56.873Z","description":"(For charity.)","url":"https://time.com/30431/patrick-stewart-ian-mckellen-selfie/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Internet","broadway","selfie"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Laura Stampler","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/laura-stampler/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/30431/patrick-stewart-ian-mckellen-selfie/","name":"You Can Now Take the Selfie of Your Dreams with Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen"}}]}] ```
