| The most riveting one I remember was at A Raisin in the Sun with Phylicia Rashad and Audra. Some one in the back of the orchestra screamed out in pain a few times and then there was a bit of a commotion to get the person out of the theater. I was close to the stage and Rashad was so calm. She attempted to restart her speech a few times but there was so much noise from the back of the theater as the entire row had to get up to get the person out. You could see the younger actors just focussing on Rashad as to when to restart the dialogue. I remember Audra just kept cooking and cleaning the kitchen thru the entire incident. Then eventually when things calmed down Rashad continued. |
