I think refusing to let anyone leave is playing a risky game with the equality act/those with hidden disabilities. It’s hard enough to ensure theatre is accessible without enforcing a rule where everyone needs to remain seated for over an hour at a time. That said, we’re all spending a lot of money to see these shows and a lot of work goes into putting the show on. There’s also a difference between having additional needs and being a wino who drank too much.I don't think its fair to stop people leaving the auditorium during the show. Not everyone can hold their bladder until the interval, even if they haven't been continuesly drinking. Especially in shows with long act 1s or ones without any interval at all. maybe holding them at the back until a scene change or something.
I think part of the problem is the types of shows, many of the problematic ones are more like concerts. Which then makes things a grey area.
Never a bad photo of this beautiful man
I used to do PR for a UK theatre and when Dirty Dancing was on, we would actually see drunken women falling down stairs and slumped over after the matinee after too many drinks.I went on Thursday and Friday to see the bodyguard. Alcohol is a massive problem not only does it also stink I had someone beside me drink a full wine then was up and out at the loo twice in act one and twice in act 2
When I went to Back to the Future there was someone not far from me who had a giant pair of headphones on and left about twice in each act. He was on the aisle though and didn’t return in the middle of a number, I imagine he had autism/some kind of sensory disorder and the staff let him back in when he would not disturb anyone. I don’t have a problem with something like that but it’s different when someone is getting drunk or bothering othersI think refusing to let anyone leave is playing a risky game with the equality act/those with hidden disabilities.

I try and book the seats on the end of the row and near the doors, and if I absolutely need to go, go in between songs etc. I couldn’t imagine disturbing an entire row!
I haven’t been for a year or two but it’s been cabaret seating every time I have visited. Small tables, a few booth-type seats against the walls. Lovely and cosy wherever you sit!Has anyone been to Crazy Coqs? What is the seating plan like please?
I saw it end of last year, got some very reasonably priced tickets and took my two daughters. I was expecting it to be ok, it was much better than ok it was fab! Would def recommend.Not gossip, but I saw Mrs Doubtfire last night. It was SO funny. Absolutely brilliant! I really recommend it. I did feel like I was cheating on Operation Mincemeat, but we've all got to branch out
I wonder - Is it MJ? Jeez. Whomever it is should be ashamed of themselves.Just saw this posted in another thread
