Gotcha. I just didn’t understand why this person would get so much attention.

Anybody, of course, has the right to leave any performance they no longer wish to attend...but that right comes with the responsibility not to disturb the experience of other people. And if there was a play I was attending that turned out to be about a pro-Trump family and I felt like I couldn't continue to sit through it, I would exit as unobtrusively as possible and not go to the box office in high dudgeon.

If this theatregoer wants to avoid "the gays," they would do well to skip all musical theater and a fair amount of "straight" plays. Mqybe Netflix true crime documentaries (which I enjoy as a very guilty pleasure) would mirror their worldview more comfortably. Calling Keith Morrison--wouldn't he be a great Narrator/Mysterious Man for a very dark production of "Into the Woods"?

Most musicals don’t have gay characters.
