The number of press releases that flow through a newspaper or a radio station in a single day is in the hundreds. There is no harm in dropping a follow up email or placing a telephone call to back it up. The key is definately having something special to sell, why should your production be covered (probably at the expence of another). Is it a new play? Is it a rarely seen play?, Is the next big actor or actress in it? Does it have something rarely seen on the stage...yes, there has to be an additional 'why should a journalist care' ellement. If it's yet another production of 'The Importance of Being Earnest' or 'Much Ado About Nothing' there's less interest - naturally. There is always the challenge of not enough collumn inches or minutes of air time, but if your show has something interesting, and you make sure it's noticed, it'll break through. ..and don't just send press releases, send an invitation or tickets.
