| Golden Rules from Stagebill,
Inc. |
| 1. Go easy with atomizer; many people are
highly allergic to perfume, aftershave, and cologne. |
| 2. If you bring a child, make sure
etiquette is part of the experience. Children love learning
new things. |
| 3. Unwrap all candies and cough drops
before the curtain goes up or the concert begins. |
| 4. Make sure beepers, cellphones and watch
alarms and other electronic devices are OFF. And don't jangle the
bangles. |
| 5. The overture is part of the
performance. Please cease talking at this point. |
| 6. Note to lovebirds: When you lean your
heads together, you block the view of the person behind you.
Leaning forward also blocks the view. |
| 7. THOU SHALT NOT TALK, or hum, or sing
along, or beat time with a body part. |
| 8. Force yourself to wait for a pause or
intermission before rifling through a purse, backpack, or shopping
bag. |
| 9. Yes, the parking lot gets busy and
public transportation is tricky, but leaving while the show is in
progress is discourteous. By leaving early, you may miss
something special. |
| 10. The old standby: Do unto others as you
would have them do unto you. |
