& Theater - NYC2WAY
How to behave during live
shows!
2. This presentation contains several tips & Do’s and Don'ts on
how to behave when going to a Broadway or theater show in
New York City. However, most of these tips apply to almost any
event such as a Broadway show in any part of the country.
NYC 2WAY Transportation provides quality services every day
to people visiting many of these places or anywhere else in the
five boroughs.
Broadway is one of those streets in New York City where
you can easily be blown away by the lights, billboards and
people around you.
3. For anyone planning on going to the theater district or
a Broadway show then you have to read these
important tips on what's the proper sociably
acceptable way to behave during these performances
lest you get thrown out or have a bad experience.
There are certain rules to follow which can make your
Broadway experience (as well as those sitting around you) a
very pleasant one. Take a look at this etiquette guide and
handbook from NYC 2 WAY Limousine Services. .
4. The first thing you must do (in case you forget
to) is to make sure you turn off your cell phone.
Anyone whose cell phone rings or uses it during
a live performance will most likely be asked to
leave and be escorted out of the show.
5. One of the worst things that can happen to
someone going to a concert, Broadway show or
an event is to sit behind someone with a huge
or giant hat! This is why it is not wise or prudent
to wear them to any show. Doing so may
impede the people sitting around or behind you
from seeing the show and enjoying the
performances.
6. It is better to buy and eat your snacks or candy either
during intermission or before the show begins. The
last thing anyone wants to hear during a
performance is someone opening any loud wrappers
or containers.
While it is understandable to get hungry when
going without food for an hour or two, eating
snacks or food during a show is a BIG NO NO!
7. One of the most important things you should do before
sitting down to watch the show is to make sure you use the
bathroom first before you take your seat. The last thing you
want is to have an entire row of people having to stand up
during the show to let you get by.
8. Do NOT wear excessive perfume as it may
bother the people sitting next to you and
or around you. While your fragrance may
smell endearing and pleasant, it can be
bothersome to others; especially if they
are allergic to it.
9. On the other hand, you should also make
sure that you smell pleasant enough for
someone not to mind sitting around you.
No one wants to sit next to a person who smells
really bad for more than 2 minutes let alone for
a few hours.
10. It is totally normal and actually welcomed to
applaud (when applicable) anytime you are
watching a live event or show. However, yelling,
hollering or whistling is not something you want
to do since many people consider whistling and
cheering in bad taste. This is according to
systemic theater etiquette rules followed.
