Face Front or Back? Theater Etiquette


To Face or Not: The Great Theater Squeeze

I’m sure you all know that proper theater etiquette dictates that you should arrive on time, turn-off or silence your cell phone and save the loud unwrapping of candy and chit-chat for after the production.

But, did you know…….

When you need to exit/enter a row and squeeze by  those already seated at a performance, you should FACE them? Most likely, they would prefer to see your smiling face saying “Excuse me, please” instead of your back side. Most likely.

Happy Summer and Mind your manners,

  1. That’s a really good point and something I rarely do. I’m asking myself why? I think I’m afraid of falling backwards down a steep rows of seats. Remedy for myself…get to the theatre early!
