An audience member at Thursday’s performance of Hand to dog at the the
Booth Theater in New York, startled crew and fellow theater-goers by
climbing on to the stage before the show started.
Once on stage, he tried to plug a cellphone charger into a power point on the show’s set which, it turns out, was fake.
Chris York, who was in the audience, said the incident occurred about two minutes before the show was set to begin.
There were no stairs to the stage so to get to it the man had to leap and then walk about 15 feet to the outlet that York said, was “clearly fake”. “The whole thing, it was very bizarre,” York said.
At first, people thought it was a part of the show, he said, but once
they realized the truth, the audience started laughing and heckling the
man, who was in his early 20s. The crew stopped the pre-show music,
removed the charger and made an announcement to the audience prohibiting
them from charging their phones on stage.
