Too Old? (fans, not performers)

I saw someone post on social media that someone appeared to be too old to be a fan of a show (wasn’t clear on tv or Broadway). But either way-that’s insane. If it’s Broadway, we don’t dictate how old fans are!! It was insane. How could you try to control how old fans are? That’s the beauty of theater-it touches people of ALL AGES. There’s no age limit (unless it’s material that would not be appropriate for a younger audience, like

a 10 year old seeing Heathers the musical). Otherwise, how could someone try to control that? Insanity.

Heartbreaking how people truly pay attention to crap like this. If you want to be a fan of Disney’s THE LITTLE MERMAID at age 72, so be it. No one is paying your rent, or your taxes, or your bills so who cares what you do or what they think? People and their unsolicited judgment and opinions.

This person on social media was obviously not a producer LOL

I agree. People should stop being fans once they reach the age of 30.

Two words: HELLO, DOLLY! You, of all people.

In a similar vein, I've heard people tell others that they shouldn't like certain music because of their skin colour !!! As in in your white so you can not like rap music, etc

The melodies are fantastic and the lyrics some of the cleverest ever written. There are different tastes, not different fans.



one of the few Disney products that I really enjoyed.
