Has Pokemon Go worked its way into theaters yet?

I don't play the game, but obviously lots of people do. I've read articles about people playing it in all sorts of inappropriate places, including Arlington National Cemetery and the Holocaust Museum. Has this craze made its way into Broadway houses yet? Are people "battling" or "powering up" at inappropriate times (i.e. during the show)? Our local performing arts center (Dr. Phillips Performing Arts Center, here in Orlando) has embraced it, and announced on their official facebook page where the Pokestops at the complex are.

How long before Pokemon Live gets revived for a Broadway run? Maybe Andrew Rannells and Dee Roscioli could reprise their roles.

As I was walking on 8th Avenue tonight, I noticed lures had been set at Studio 54, the Samuel Friedman Theatre, and the Majestic Theatre, and it was about 7:45.



I knew it was only a matter of time. What's a lure, by the way? Is that something you do in the game? I just learned today that my job is a gym.

I haven't done this myself yet, but a lure is something you can do to a Pokestop to attract more Pokemon for half an hour. You have to get to a certain level to be able to do this, though. http://www.inc.com/walter-chen/pok-mon-go-is-driving-insane-amounts-of-sales-at-small-local-businesses-here-s-h.html

These are the Pokestops with the pink hearts floating around them. I guess they could be bored employees of nearby business (or of those businesses).

With all the other b.s. to distract those at a show, we now have to put up with these mindless idiots.Maybe they can play it while walking over the railing of the GW bridge or over the railing at the Empire State Building. Some of these mindless robots would probably do it without hesitation.

Note to those that don't know anything about the gyms/stops: there is no need to go inside the buildings..anything that happens, happens outside.



That doesn't mean there might not be a pokemon hiding inside a theater, however. I'm looking forward to be in NYC next week to see if there are different pokemon there then what I see a lot in my own neighborhood! But we won't have our phones on during the show....because we never have our phones on during a show.

Waitress retweeted someone who found a pokemon inside the Brooks Atkinson the other day.

A high school friend currently in PHANTOM posted about this today. If it was going to happen during the show, let's face it, it was going to happen at the Majestic first.

I do want to say that the app is not all bad, it's getting people walking, talking and out of their house. While there are the ones who need to realize that they need to look around and be respectful, those are the onew tainting what otherwise could be a force for good.

no wonder ISIS hates us.

The Waitress Twitter account retweets everything, if you mention Jessie, the rest of the cast, the show, or Sara, you will surely get a retweet.

When ;there's a pokemon in your building/home it can easily be captured by being on the sidewalk outside.

Yes, ISIS hates us because of a game.

Funny you mention POKEMON LIVE: I've actually been trying to reach out to Nintendo about a different theatrical licensing item.
