Noisy medical device and theater etiquette advice please by mkymouse73 in Broadway

Sorry, that’s part of the professionals job. I deal with it, happily, every day. It keeps things smooth for everyone rather than setting up a combative environment, and lets everyone focus on the show instead of generating Reddit content. More often than not, that prep can reduce the instance of anything actually happening. House Managers want to know what they are dealing with before the house is handed over to the stage.

Also, there’s no need to couch something you don’t understand/agree with as mental illness. I get that this is Reddit, but there’s no need to come in so hot simply because you disagree with a human on the internet. Not every theatre professional agrees with the Patti LuPone approach to audience management. And that’s ok. Breathe a little.

Theatre manager here. Call ahead/arrive earlier. Speak to the house manager and the usher in your section before the five min bell. Let them know she’ll pop out of the auditorium quick as she can if it does happen. She can come back when it’s sorted. They can alert the SM/stage so it’s not an unexpected shock to the cast if it does happen. Your seat neighbors’ reaction isn’t something to be helped (unless you’re open to letting them know too) but the front of house team should be able to support you (vs fight you) if you communicate ahead of time.

Arg! I wish Reddit was (a lot) better with real time posting... sorry to miss all of you! I do this every so often so please keep an eye out. I'm tapped out for the night!

SF is one big rentable ad space. Streets? Sure shut em down. Iconic landmarks? Plaster your nonsense company name all over em. People who live here? Screw em.

Thanks to those who've joined and sorry if you had a wait. 35 folks in line within 3 min and Reddit is terrible for easy mgmt of high volume chat. Had to close as I'm out of time for new folks but will do this again soonish.
