Inappropriate Theater Behavior - An Incident at THE NORMAN CONQUESTS Tonight — Page 2

Actual thoughts on the play, WAT?

I totally agree with you Bettyboy. The fact that this was in the round made it SO much worse. I couldn't watch the action on stage without noticing them in the background, especially since so much took place right in front of them.

Thank you, Chris. As I stated above, I'm glad that at least some people agree with me on this...

This reminds me of this young couple who was directly in front of me at Gypsy one time. They were cuddling and kissing throughout the entire thing. Not full-on making out, just giving each other kisses during the blackouts and during some scenes. I couldn?t see at all. The only way I could see was between their heads, but because the guy had his arm around the girl and they had their heads on each other?s shoulders, I couldn?t see. The PDA that you guys described at Norman Conquests sounds even worse.

It was VERY annoying and distracting. I definitely agree with you, WAT.

It's not as extreme as the people having sex at Legally Blonde, but still, come on... it's inappropriate.

I was there too, they were in my peripheral vision, and he was holding his hand so hardcore that I literally thought he might be jerking him off, until I actually looked over. Literally. No joke at all.

HAHA

If CapnHook is gonna be stripes, can I be purple?

I've met WAT too but don't wish death on him. Unless he doesn't help with my BC/EFA goal and then all bets are off (lol jk).

If we cast Hook and Eug as the dastardly duo can we write this into BWW.com: The Musical?

For the record, they weren't making out. Just literally holding each other the entire show. As in, arms pretty much wrapped around each other the whole time, whether they were laughing, quiet, etc, whatever.

They laughed and clapped at a comedy? Shoot them.

I was the "poor guy sitting next to them" that you enjoyed watching so much. Yes, they were distracting. Yes, they were loud. Yes, they whispered to each other throughout (well, a very loud whisper, punctuated by large movement of his entire body to get close to the other ones ear.) Yes, they were obnoxious. During intermission they taunted the ushers because they were fat.

The word subtle was lost on them. One kept commenting on what the actors were wearing and pointing with his full arm at the offending item of clothing. They were literally on the stage - one foot away - and this guy was pointing "Look, she has grass stains on her sneakers!"

He also spent most of the show turning around in his chair "star-hunting". When he found someone, he would excitedly pull on his date and point across the theater at the actor trying to enjoy his Monday night off at the theater.

I finally had to sit with both hands up on the side of my face to block his constant movement. It WAS that bad.

It sucked to sit next to them, but at least I could try to block them out and look at the action on stage. The entire other side of the theater had to look at their constant wriggling and pointing through the whole show.

"He also spent most of the show turning around in his chair "star-hunting"."

I did notice that he kept turning around, but I had no clue what the hell he was looking at!

I'm so sorry you had to sit next to them and endure that through the entire show. I only hope and pray they are not there this evening and Wednesday evening.

All things aside, glad you liked the show and hope you don't have to go through that again for the next two.

Thanks, CyCoSpAz2. We will surely let you know if they are there again tonight.

As you stated, Marianne2, hopefully they will just stay home!
