Did anyone bother to read the info? The Twitter people were in the last row..no lights or clicking noises happend when texting..no on knew they were there.
It's about time theatre did something new and shocking to generate interest among the tech friendly younger set.
Theatre is about controversy. Everyone always hates the new...and then gipes that no one is talking about theatre.
Well..finally people are!

There's an intesting discussion happening on the Berkeley Rep Facebook page (they created "American Idiot") about the SF Playhouse (an Equity theatre company in SF) doing nights where selected audience members can Twitter during the performance:
I love this idea. How cool to see instant reviews happening and you'll get younger people who wouldn't usually think about theatre. I wish I could do this!
