    When I was in “Elf” at Madison Square Garden... at the end of the show “buddy” is trying to get the people of New York to sing and “Jovie” is supposed to come on and sing the final part of the show with him. But when Buddy said “Sing! Anyone?” Some woman in the audience started screaming “GOD BLESS AMERICA” and she sang the whole song of god bless America from the audience during the final scene of the show. It was crazy and everyone onstage was DYING! 😂

    My grandma is the worst for talking loudly in the theatre (she’s going slightly deaf so I don’t think she realises how loud she is bless her). She came to see me in my uni performance of ‘Posh’ and was commenting on everything from the costumes to the amount my character swears. If I’m in a show my mum turns her phone on in the interval to say we’re doing great because she’s lovely like that and I had to text her back saying “thanks. Can you remind Gran-Gran that she has a very carrying voice and the theatre is small? We can hear everything she’s saying. Please make her stop” 😂😂😂

    When Lin-Manuel Miranda came to Puerto Rico to do Hamilton, the audience would give him a standing ovation every single night during the first number. Lin would stay in character and would just put his hand on his heart as a “thank you”. It was incredible, we Puerto Rican’s were just so excited and proud of him, we had to interrupt for at least a little bit.

    When it was the most recent big cast change at Everybody's Talking About Jamie (when Layton left to go on tour), when the actors came on at the start there was a literal 10 minute applause, it was crazy. Then later on in that show, most of the cast began to cry at certain scenes, which just made the entire audience sob even more! The energy at that show was insane, as me and every other crazy fan was all there, and it was just amazing to see!

    My mum had to take me out of Joseph during Close Every Door because I was sobbing, I was about 6!

The most memorable bad experience was in American Idiot when Johnny was sat in silence during an emotional moment and you could have heard a pin drop and some idiot shouted "get on with it!" Oh and some drunk women treating Bat out of Hell like a karaoke night!

    Regarding eating..... this is why you aren't allowed to bring any foods or drinks into the theaters here and you have to store your jackets as well. Less distracting. Show stopping happened to me at Les Mis in December 2018. Right at the beginning of the barricades scene (first shot) someone in the audience got sick and the companion started yelling... at first the yelling blended in with the scene so it took a while for everyone to realize that there was a situation. Cast was ordered to leave the stage while the audience was staying. I felt really uncomfortable.

    I often take my shoes off at theaters but hear me out. Firstly, I always have socks. Secondly, I like to sit cross-legged, and I feel like it's more polite to not have my gross New York City shoes on a seat. What do y'all think? Also, I think the craziest reaction I have ever seen was the OG cast of Hamilton. Lin came on stage for the first time, and the applause was like a solid 5 minutes before the show could go on. It was crazy but really cool. A thing I find in broadway theaters is people with loud snacks, especially in quiet/serious moments. Like, why?

    I’ve left secondary school now, but I did shows there every year. We used to have one show a day from Monday- Thursday on the week of the show. On Monday we’d do a kind of matinee which was more like a rehearsal with an audience, but it would be the first time we’d have a full audience. Usually the audience would be another secondary school and they would be far too cool to react or laugh or applaud to anything, so they’d just stare at us for the whole show and talk to their friends the whole time, which made the show so lacklustre and drained of energy because we had nothing to bounce off of. The evening shows were always so much better because everyone wanted to be there, they hadn’t been dragged to go and see it by their teachers. Although to be honest if someone took me out of a lesson to go and watch a musical for free I’d die of happiness!!

    I watched Waitress on the final night for Katharine McPhee, Laura Baldwin & (maybe) Jack McBrayer. During dialogue between Dawn & Ogie, a man in the audience did the LOUDEST sneeze!! At a pivotal moment in the dialogue, we're all in suspense, and we hear a huge sneeze. The audience were in fits of laughter, Laura & Jack just stayed silent, staring at each other, trying not to laugh for ages, then they started laughing.... then finally, they finish their dialogue and Jack does a huge fake sneeze just like the man in the audience did - hilarious! 😂 I love it when different things like that happen. They're the things you remember the most! Haha x

    When I saw Avengers:Endgame in cinema for the first time, I cried from the very first scene until the end credits. But there was one moment that got me in particular and I let out an audible sob, and suddenly, during this very sad scene, everyone in the cinema started laughing at me 🤷‍♀️ very glad this didn‘t happen in a theatre. But when I saw Les Mis, the lady sitting next to me and I cried so much that we started consoling each other and we held hands for Emty Chairs at Empty Tables. That was a weirdly wonderful moment.

    We had a pop up Globe come to Sydney 2 years ago (it was amazing!). When I saw Macbeth it was a really hot day and someone collapsed in the groundlings pit and started having a seizure. It was so scary! Macbeth was giving a very intense soliloquy (the actor was so in the zone) and the he saw the person and stopped and still in a low voice said “is everything alright?” and then when it was confirmed the person was ok he went “alright, let’s continue” still in character. He did such a good job at staying in character and maintaining composure.

    It's not my own story but Emily Skeggs, who played Medium Alison in Fun Home, said that there was one time when, right after Big Alison says, "and I became a lesbian cartoonist," they all heard an old man whisper very loudly in a strong New York accent, "what did she say???" and his (also old) wife whispered loudly in an equally strong New York accent, "she said she's a lesbian cartoonist." Which obviously is correct, but it must've been pretty funny especially in that theatre, which is in the round and TINY so I'm sure every single audience member could hear it too! Ben Platt also has a story, which I think he told on Colbert or another late night show, about an audience member during Dear Evan Hansen, so anyone who hasn't seen that interview should go watch because it's HILARIOUS and he tells it perfectly. (Also, as someone who tends to cry VERY hard at shows, when I've been in smaller venues or had a closer seat and I'm crying I've definitely felt like the actors will see me sometimes and make eye contact with me, so it's good to know that I'm not just imagining that and that people really do notice crying audience members!)

    I was there on opening night for Back to the Future and yeah, some of the cheers were a bit much. At the entrances it was fine, but just before George punches Biff, it was a bit nuts how everyone was cheering him on. Same with Johnny B Goode. Could have done without that... But when Hugh does his first lines as George, that moment was absolute magic. That was the exact moment I knew the show was gonna be fantastic (not that it was bad before that, but , like you said, that performance is SO award worthy).

    I was doing a show in a black box theatre where it was possible to see to the back row of the audience if you tried really hard. We got a few scenes into the show and realized there was a couple doing some heavy petting in the back row. It was a laugh backstage talking about them, and it didn’t bother us too much because it wasn’t super noticeable. We got to a little over halfway through Act I and they left the theatre to go continue their business. This was a small black box, so they had to walk across on the front of our stage to exit. We found out later from the ushers that they are known for doing this sort of thing and that they do it several times a year (!!)

    A weird audience reaction was when I saw Les Misérables at the Stadsschouberg in Antwerp about 20 years ago - Hilde Norga was Fantine and she later understudied in London and I thjnk was the factory girl. Same cast (who were mostly Dutch rather than Flemish) did half the week in French and half the week in Flemish as I understand it. The audience hardly applauded at the French-language show we saw (same lyrics as the 1991 Paris album with Louise Pitre as Fantine) - they were very quiet. Then Gavroche died and they went into rapturous applause - they must love dead children!!! I’d seldom ever had much of an outpouring in Les Mis before other than in the “live again in freedom in the garden of the Lord” verse of the finalé (as that builds it always sets me off) - but Fantine’s death had a verse modified from Fantine’s original “L’air de la Misère” which I’d always found heart-breaking and suddenly that verse demolished me and I went into floods of pathetic snotty tears!!!

I was taking some weed oil for my chronic pain which I had a fair bit of that day and it was really easy to take too much (I took about the size of the head of a pin instead of the end of a toothpick). The first half was fine. And the second half. Was so not oh my god it hit me way too hard around "nobody cares about santa clause" I've never been so terrified by santa clauses in my life. The room was spinning, I was faint, I tried my hardest not to throw up, I was surrounded by children. I debated about making a run back to the car but I thought if I faint in the aisle I'm gonna scar these children for life. I gotta grit my teeth for the children. It was wild. I got back to the car after it ended and cranked the passenger seat back all the way and rode home like that.

    Eating in the theatre is such a foreign concept to me. In the theatre I work at people are prohibited from eating and drinking in the hall. Like we have a bar in the foyer but once the show is about to start they need to quickly down their drinks or leave them outside. So I can't imagine people actually going out of their way to eat during a show.

    I remember going to see Wicked on Broadway when I was 16 and I was so surprised by how much more vocal American audiences were than in the West End. I'm used to applause and maybe some whistles but I couldn't get over how after each number people would be whooping and shouting 'yeah!' at the theatre! Also, I went to see Matilda a while ago and there were two women sat behind me talking but it really sounded to me like one of them was doing simultaneous interpreting of the musical into another language! (I did interpreting at uni so recognised the way she was repeating each line in her language) but it started to be really distracting so I glanced round a couple of times, but then they left during the interval and didn't come back which I thought was odd!

    The worst incident I ever had was when I saw Emma blackery live. This girl had a massive anxiety/panic attack right in front of us! It was a small venue so quite crowded and packed in so I completely understood. But she ended up on the floor then people closed in around her so (I felt bad doing it) I shouted at people to back up and give her space. I kinda held a clearish area until security came and my friend gave her her water. Emma just carried on as 80% of the audience ignored her and it was near the back. Quite scary but her and her friend could not thank me enough. But worst experience was my colleague who when she saw the staged version of les mis the couple next to her well the lady was singing along, badly. My colleague got an usher who told her to stop but she carried on so they kicked her out and gave complimentary tickets to my colleague and her partner and the 4 people behind for the disturbance! Then when I saw it had the lady in front of us constantly leaning forward affecting the view of me and the lady on my right. She pretended she didnt understand English then had a conversation with her friend in fluent English 😂 Usher sorted it out for us! Great video was really interesting to learn how much you can see into the audience!

A doctor and I helped get the guy out into the foyer and I was able to sneak back in for the end of the show.

    After Aladdin me and my friends where waiting to be picked up And we happened to be near stagedoor (nobody seems to wait at stag door where i live) and while we waited one of the cast came out and said "oh you girls where front row" and just walked off. When i saw Book of Mormon for the second time i had won some lotto thing for front row seat and got given a pin and was told to wear it because the cast liked to know who had won the lotto thing

    When I went to see Les mis, the concert version at the Sondheim there was a moment in bring him home and the woman behind me was crying so loudly. She did one of those vibrato intakes of breath right in the pause. I feel like I shouldn’t have been annoyed but it does really take you out of the performance.

    I was very bad (I feel guilty now) when the late Sacha Distell was Billy in Chicago 20 years ago. He was totally miscast and incomprehensible - sang beautifully but the dialogue was mumbled. It was a 6 week contract and so the producers just left him in situ knowing the issues. The cast were struggling, it was palpable. He came to his bow and I just could not applaud him - it felt like a lie, but I also felt sorry for him. He saw it. I feel bad now!

    One of my teachers was at cats with her sister and her sister took ill mid show. The only exit was at the bottom of the stage so she was walking out with her sister and her sister collapsed right at the bottom of the aisles at the stage. So the teacher is on the floor with her sister and an usher came along and said “you can’t sit there” obviously not noticing the unconscious sister on the floor thinking they moved to the isle to get a better view of the stage.

    I'm surprised you've experienced so much food in professional theaters. The theaters I've been to in the US always security check bags and throw out food and drinks, so the most I've seen is some snacks from someone's pockets. Trail mix, a snack cake, etc.

    Drunk audience members in jukebox musicals are the WORST. During Jersey Boys, there were two drunk couples singing at the top of their lungs and I had already asked them twice to quieten down. Eventually, we got a call from backstage saying the actors were complaining saying it was distracting and when I spoke to them for a final time, one of the men started screaming "What do you mean I can't sing? IT'S A F**KING MUSICAL". Doesn't help that my duty manager that night was useless and refused to give me backup so I just had to leave them eventually.

    Last time I went to see American Idiot some audience members really ruined it. It was the opening of the second half and (SPOILERS) the person in stage was injecting drugs, it was complete silence on stage and in audience except for a couple of people talking and making jokes. Everyone was trying to shush them and just wish they'd been thrown out. We were also sat next to someone who was filming the show. But we were sat in the circle and we could see what was on her screen and it was the worst footage ever! You couldn't even see a person it was just a wierd back-lit blurr!

    When we came to watch BTTF the guy next to me was clearly not a regular theatre goer. During the first Delorean scene he pulled out a bag of bbq flavoured chicken strips and I mean this is up in the gods in the Opera House, we're already practically sat on top of each other. It stank and I felt so sick. It gets worse, cause he then went and stood up about ten mins before the interval to go idk where. We were sat right in the middle right at the front of the upper circle, and the doors are at the back. Everyone in our row has to stand up to let him past, meaning everyone in the stall would have been interrupted. To make it worse, we had to do it again to let him back to his seat. Then two minutes later the interval happened. So annoying. I get that it's great BTTF is drawing non theatre people to attend but some theatres in London email out guidelines and expectations prior to your ticket date, maybe the Opera House could have done the same because its just not fair.

    When I was in school we went on a class trip to London and went to see Ghost on the West End. Some of the students were sat in the front row but my friends and I were sitting further back, and at the interval our teachers came and asked us to swap because apparently the actors had complained about the students sitting in the front row. No idea what they were doing -- probably just being rowdy teenage boys, but yeah my friends and I were the "good kids" who wouldn't be disrespectful I guess. Have you ever complained about someone in the audience and had them kicked out/moved?

    I always worry so much about my facial expressions when I'm watching a show, especially if I'm near the front because I know that they can see me. I saw Once in Liverpool in January and was on the 2nd row and all of a sudden these people on the front row just started yelling at each other and we were all like "what the hell is going on?" I honestly don't know how the actors managed to carry on as if nothing was happening, it didn't seem to phase them at all even though it was happening right in front of them. It only lasted a few seconds and then they stopped but it was crazy and some of them left after that. I really hope that BTTF comes back with the same cast because it really does sound incredible and definitely deserved so much better than what it got. I still regret not going when I had the chance.

    The second time I went to see BOM on the west end we had really good seats towards the front and centre of the balcony. But the guy directly behind us must have drank way too much at the interval because he shouted and clapped out of time for the whole of the second half and stood up clapping way before the end of the show! It’s so frustrating when you’ve paid so much and been so excited to see a show to have a bad audience member sitting near you

    Is it not a thing, that if you try and bring in hot food/ a main meal/ takeaway food like pizza, pasta, sushi etc or even like a sandwich to eat. You’d be stopped, & won’t be allowed in? unless you were to get rid of said food item. Surely in bag searches at the entrance you could notice that. I thought it was actual etiquette that you just don’t bring outside food into a theatre, like you’re not allowing to bring outside food into a cinema.
