Three Penny Opera (gun shots?) other shows 2

Jersey Boys: Yes, in one scene there are gunshots, but no one actually dies

Threepenny - No gun shots, but a lot of foul language, simulated sex, sexual innuendo, and penile exposure.

I think I understand what Jon means. For years I have loved theater, but have freaked out about on stage gun shots, loud pyros etc. (I think the noise startles me too much.)Anywho, I think he probably just is concerned and maybe interested in knowing before he sees any of the shows. I may be wrong, but this is what I suspect. Also, I would imagine (although I haven't seen it) that Tarzan must have at least one gun shot. Isn't Clayton the villain supposed to be a poacher. I may be wrong.

As a theatregoer whose phobia is loud noises, I too like to be warned of any gun, pyro, or bomb noises. so I can see where JaredBway is coming from.

Boy - I can think of several classic plays where the ending would be RUINED if the audience knew there was going ot be a gun shot. I mean, the warning isposted oin the lobby, and all through the play you're thinking, "when is the gunshot going to happen?" Then, when it's OBVIOUSLY very close to the end of the play, the lead character walks offstage, very depressed... BANG!!!!! Gee - I didn't expect that to happen... oh wait... of course I did!

You might as well have signs saying:

HEDDA GABLER - warning - she kills herself at the end.
ALL MY SONS - warning - he kills himself at the end.

et cetera, et cetera...

There are no gun shots in History Boys.

(See it!)

"Threepenny - No gun shots, but a lot of foul language, simulated sex, sexual innuendo, and penile exposure."

Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah... penile exposure?

Oh, my.

All that and full-blown countertenor, too, huh?

I hope that this gets recorded.
