They scream when Veronica and the heathers come on, during I say no then sometimes throw scrunches during curtain call
I saw it a couple of weeks ago mainly screamed when the Heathers appeared otherwise they were fine. Lots in cosplay which was cool to see.
Don’t worry, leading vegetable isn’t in it, shouldn’t be too bad.
I feel like screaming/applauding for an entrance is fine. i’ve seen plenty of celebrities on broadway where people scream for the entrances and then are fine and normal for the rest of the show.
what carrie doesn’t seem to understand is her line of work is a hobby that she’s lucky to get paid for—people are allowed to enjoy doing theatre without being a “professional.” it’s definitely not the same as trying your hand at dentistry. (ofc I agree with the initial issue at hand but the way she goes about contradicting things is just so ridiculous)
also she’s the ripe old age of 30, been working in theatre professionally for 10 years and STILL brags that she can’t read sheet music???
I like this take. Performers are still getting paid regardless of what happens. The audience are the ones who are spending money and time on that night. This isn't a luxury every Tom, Dick and Harry can frequently spend on, especially in this economy.
I did a FOH stint for years (not at a theatre) and whilst the majority of audiences were lovely, I experienced verbal and physical abuse for things beyond my control (ie if an act was late or the queues were long for the bars). We got paid barely minimum wage. Met some utter arseholes who absolutely ruined the job for me. I was the one who had to deal with hideous people because my colleagues were waaay younger and couldn't deal with the amount of abuse they hurled at us. It's nice to see an actor actually stand up for all FOH workers rather than Little Miss Me Me Me and her stupid dentistry analogies.
I have to say that as FOH staff, it’s lovely to see the amount of people backing us and realising just how tough our job can be
It was tough when I did it 15 years ago, can't imagine how bad it is now
This is great and what it’s about - glad he isn’t taking the opportunity to make it all about him and how he is a professional. Carrie is just so up her own arse,
SCREAMINGI feel like people are more entitled now - it’s got worse since lockdown I’ve noticed too
Oh absolutely!! Its terrible
100% up until recently worked public facing role and since the pandemic its definitely got worse. But I also blame the individualistic society that has been created in the last decade.
Hi Carrie! Since you agree that learning sheet music is an important skill to have, here you go!
Knowing how to read sheet music doesn’t mean you have “privilege” since there’s literally dozens of free videos on your own platform that teach you how to do it. So, what’s your excuse for not learning it?

Agreed, in my old job we noticed a big change in entitlement pre and post-pandemic.
As much as I feel for performers when the audience is being disrespectful (like someone using their mobile phone), most of my sympathy lies with FoH staff and other audience members
And that is reason number 34688653578 my friend why Crabbie is a Narcissit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And so is her
When Carrie enters any discussion
This
she loses even the tiniest point she’s trying to make by not being able to properly express herself and then always resorting to aggression and condescension. Every single time.Agreed with FOH staff discussion, I was at a play yesterday and an elderly couple had taken a picture of their tickets incorrectly (just the barcode, no seat number but it was half cut off and taken from a distance so there was no way that the FOH staff could scan it) and they started screaming at the staff member who politely asked them to go to the box office where someone could print off their tickets for them so they could be scanned properly.
Sometimes I think FOH staff should be paid more than the performances, or at least have a bullshit tolerance pay - more than the Lead Carrot at least

‘I’ve always insisted I’d have a green engagement ring though. I don’t care who my husband is, just a green engagement ring or I’m saying no’
Love Joel literally posting that his wife settled for him all because he got her a *green engagement ring
*And by green I assume she means emerald.
