Ice cream is chosen because it's a quiet food.
That said, I didn't think the service at the Lyric was obtrusive or anything. Once the show started, it stopped, and at the end of intermission.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 3:34pmWhat a terrible thing, people will be eating this food long after intermission ends. If it was just a before the show and during intermission thing, it would be different. Yuck.

I wish I could have skipped The Anarchist and had a chicken dinner and wine at home.

That menu sucks.
They need to have Xtra spicy BBQ wings, Cracker Jacks, and pepperoni 'za.
You know, foods more appropriate for the thee-a-tah.

When enough food, soda, wine needs to be cleaned off the carpets and seats might they reconsider?
Would being a klutz help the situation?
Might be worth the investment.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 3:54pmHopefully they'll incorporate a full Indian menu in there.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 4:14pmI've always wanted to have a kati roll stand - maybe this is my chance. I'm calling the Lyric now!

Posted: 10/7/14 at 4:43pmI think we should go back to the ushers selling rotten vegetables and fruit that we can throw at the actors when we don't like their performances.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 4:46pmSure, you load up on the chimichangas at the pre-show and then let rip at the curtain call.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 5:00pmI hate the idea of it, and I hope it isn't a trend. That said, it was fairly non-intrusive at last evening's performance.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 5:21pmI'm surprised they don't sell bottles of hard liquor and specialty espresso drinks.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 5:25pmWhat section in the theatre is designated as the "peanut free" zone? Peanut allergies you know.

Well, as someone has mentioned, ice cream has been a staple at West End theatres forever. I remember seeing SPAMALOT shortly after it opened in London and at the interval (as they call it), they sold Spam sandwiches...wrapped in wax paper!!
Ahhh, the smell of Spam wafting through the stalls of the Palace!

Posted: 10/7/14 at 7:28pmI'd go to a show that sold fleshlights and cotton candy!!

Posted: 10/7/14 at 7:34pmI was at the show last night as it was really not obstructive. Maybe it's the acoustics, but last night was the first time in a long time I've been to a show and didn't hear rustling wrappers, sippy cups with ice clanging, smell popcorn (like at Movin' Out or Hairspray), and didn't really see a lot of mess afterwards. I didn't see the little menus in my seat, but i saw them across the aisle in the center section. Maybe it's a Premium Seating thing only now.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 8:28pmWhen purchased my tickets online, I had the opportunity to purchase drinks and the premium chocolates for the show.

Posted: 10/7/14 at 10:14pmI don't think it's On The Town so much as The (new but old) Lyric Theatre. At least that's the way it seemed to me...

Posted: 10/7/14 at 10:21pm^It's definitely the theater management, not the production. Presumably these same things will be in place for any production that goes into the theater under that management.
