| I totally agree, whether it's a screaming child or a chorus of phones, it ruins the audiences experience. I think those that can, have duty to intervene because most of us cannot. And remember, when the disruption begins, we, as audience members, are put on edge because we don't know how long the disruption will last. Will the child scream for one song? Two songs? the entire show? I would MUCH prefer a brief 'intervention' so that I can relax and get back into the show | |

| The bigger question, where the disruption is a screaming child, is why the parent doesn't immediately take the child out of the theatre until it calms down. And, of course, the base question, why did a parent bring a child to see such an adult-oriented show? | |

| Some parents are just on a different plane than the rest of us. When I saw Saving Private Ryan in the movie theater, there was a 4-year-old in the audience, who of course was shrieking throughout the bloody and violent opening portrayal of the D-Day landing at Normandy. And the parents did not take the kid out of the theater. |
