| I see what you mean, but I used the word embarrassing because it was all they talked about. I stayed in the lobby awhile after the show. I was hoping to hear what the audience thought, as always, particularly with this amazing play, which is deeply moving, and as the OP points out, the first to puts Covid into some sort of unique perspective. But you would have thought that some crime had been perpetrated on them. Seriously, no one mentioned the play itself, and many were angry, etc. Sure, I get it - it was a long time to sit without an intermission. But I found the lack of interest in this work of art disappointing, and yes, embarrassing. And I am among the people who have all three of the reasons you mention. |
