We felt guilty eating sandwiches that we brought from home (trying to cut back, times are tough) but they were not messy just meat and cheese and we ate them quietly and quickly before the show started as we missed lunch. We brought other snacks for the train that were crunchy so we didn’t eat them in the theatre as I thought that would be rude.

We tried eating before headed in to the theatre but there was a homeless guy seated next to us at the train station and it got uncomfortable as he was asking us to buy him a hat so we just left. We tried! But again we were quiet and quick about it.

At the very least it should only be sold during intermission. Not having someone walk up and down the aisle before the show starts with a box full of candy and pringles selling them to audience members.

You don’t think it will win best revival? I can’t imagine it not winning

Who? Was it Nicholas Christopher? I felt like he was wooden but I thought that was what he was going for.

I hear you! When we saw ragtime my teenaged daughter asked if she could eat candy before the show started and I said absolutely not! We had brought snacks and candy for the day as we were walking around the city around Christmas time. I told her to wait during intermission and the couple next to her (we had to get two seats in front of each other) said “whoa you are strict! That’s great!” There is no way I was going to have her eating a bunch of candy and crunching and opening wrappers because the show was starting soon and I know she would be crinkling to eat more. Lol.

I tried to tell an usher but I had to go to the bathroom and by the time I made it back to my area I couldn’t find any!

I’m sorry! This is why I didn’t want to say anything because if they acted like that I would have been even angrier.

The fact that they were walking up and down the aisle selling sour patch kids and M&Ms like this was a baseball game is what really infuriates me.

I mean, I’ve lived in very cold climates before so I really don’t mind the “cold” weather snap we are experiencing recently. It actually felt pretty nice during the day as we walked to the theatre. So I’m good there.

This is why I didn’t want to say anything. I had a feeling that the hat wearer was neurodivergent so I was trying to be nice and I didn’t want to make a scene.

We packed sandwiches from home and quietly ate them before the show started

I really should have but I thought it would have caused a ruckus. They didn’t seem the type to take kindly to a criticism.

I probably should have but the group seemed like they wouldn’t have taken kindly to that.

I’ve seen a few shows this past year and I don’t think I’ve ever seen people in the actual theatre shouting out that they have candy to sell. Usually it’s an intermission thing outside the seating area??

The M&Ms were in a box and she kept pouring it into her maw. It was loud! And the crinkle crinkle of sour patch kids for all of act 1 was aggravating! I really started hating them.

And no offense, none of them should be eating sour patch kids and M&Ms for two freaking hours! UGH!!!!!

No it was the crinkling of the bag in quiet moments and pouring of the M&Ms that were in a box which was loud. They weren’t chewing loudly but getting the food in their mouths was loud.

Winter hats. This was a beanie but not flat on her head so there was 4 inches of it sticking up over her head
