- Footage from intermission shows a man shouting at nearby patrons for being “loud and obnoxious,” invoking his teenage nieces and calling repeatedly for security.
- The clip, shared on Reddit and Instagram on Jan. 3, has since been covered by outlets including People, BroadwayWorld, and TMZ.
- According to the Reddit poster, event staff walked the man away and he later returned and apologized, while the women he confronted left their seats.
