Walking Out Of Performances at interval.
Sun, 29 July 2001, 05:48 pmWalking out of a performance at interval or at any stage is serious bad form. Not only is it disrespectful to the cast, crew and anyone else associated with the show; it is a waste of money. The first act of travesties, for example, is confusing but the second act ties up most of the confusion. There are medical conditions in which case it is perfectly fine to leave at any stage(Unless they are faked), but I have no respect for anyone who leaves a performance because they don't understand it.

Mon, 30 July 2001, 11:40 amI don't even think it is a case of being offemded by an unsatisfied audience. Audiences seem to expect the same old drivel show in, show out (whoops vicar there seems to be a naked woman in your closet what what) and if you dare to give them something just a little different, they walk out at interval. Are you perhaps suggesting that we should cater to what the audience wants alone and leave ourselves, as actors, unchallenged and therefore ultimately unfulifilled? Keeping in mind that the reason we do this is for fun? I think that if a show isn't bad, the acting is good, but you just don't understand it, stick around and see what happens.

PS Although I am in the aforementioned Travesties I don't really appear until the second act, so my post here is not because of sour grapes.
