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.

Um, the director isn't offended at all. Just us actors. It seems that they aren't doing it because we are crap, merely because they 'don't get it'. As far toughening up goes, I think we've all got pretty tough hides as it is. I believe this debate was started to gather other opinions about the subject. This is the first 'different' piece if theatre I have ever done, and consequently the first time I have ever had walkouts (Earnest doesn't count, the woman was having a heart attack). Naturally I personally am a little curious, obviously I'm not the only one. But I genuinely believe that if you do not understand something, but the show is good, stick around and see what happens.

PS I couldn't say exactly how many walk outs we've had, but I know it's reached double figures at least.
