Theater Tickets Observations

Posted by Cindy on August 4, 2009

I found it’s necessary to make some observation and comments when it come to attending a theater show. Once you’ve purchased your Theater Tickets, make sure you have plenty of time to go back home and change your clothes if you bought the tickets in the clothes you just slept in or mowed your lawn in. Those clothes are not appropriate for the theater, plus you smell. One should wear clothes that covers a good portion of your skin too. You are not going to a strip club.

Stop shifting in your seat, stop sucking your teeth during the play because you want to show disgust about what’s going on either with one of the audience members or what’s happening on stage. Pay attention to what’s happening on stage and not what someone is doing 5 seats away. If you actually pay attention to the play, you really won’t even notice what other audience members are doing.

Comments: It’s a waste of time to stand in line for 20 minutes and pay $15 for a tiny 3 ounce glass of wine, and then have to swig it down fast because intermission is over and the lobby lights are blinking on and off. Either sneak in a little bottle in your purse, or wait. The play should only be about 2 hours long, surely you can wait that long. Don’t pay for a box of candy either unless you plan to share it with me, and I will ask you to share it with me. And please, please don’t take a stupid group photo in the Opera House. It’s in bad taste, instead do it in the parking lot. Really, how silly to pose like you’re doing something eventful enough to get a photo in the theater for, theater going should be a natural event in your life. Not some spectacle.
