Hamilton etiquette
Went to see Hamilton tonight. Outstanding. 10/10 for everyone. Totally blown away.
But friends, what the fuck. Has theatre etiquette gone to the dogs?
Why did I experience someone beside or behind me singing along in the first few songs? Thankfully they soon caught on to how annoying they were and stopped.
I had to throw a dirty look to the people beside me for talking in the first 3 songs. I know. It’s great. Leslie is there! Shut up. Talk about it in the interval.
There was a row of 3-5 people in front of me aggressively bopping to every beat. I mean genuinely rocking backward and forward.
Are we incapable of sitting somewhat still? In silence? I could not believe it. I’ve never experience anything like it at a theatre show. I expect it during movies at this point but there are people on stage performing and you want to ignore that?!
