'Anti-social behaviour, plain and simple': Palace Theatre boss speaks out after Bodyguard row
The Palace Theatre in Manchester is the city's most historic and arguably most famous theatre. It has played host to some of the world's biggest stars, and theatreland's biggest shows.
He adds: "I think this is an issue not just in Manchester but theatres around the country have been trying to tackle for a while now. But I think there may be some misconceptions in the public discourse about what's actually going on. "We want to create an atmosphere and environment which is inclusive of everybody - everybody can come and have a really good time. It's not like there's some complicated set of rules you have to follow or theatre manners you need to know about in order to come to a show here."
"But in terms of audience participation it does vary from one show to the next. If it's a serious drama yes there's no place for that [audience participation], but in a show like Greatest Days that we've just had here, there are obvious points in the show when the cast are inviting the audience to be involved in an appropriate way that doesn't disrupt the show or disrupt the experience.
The majority of staff across the theatres are shift workers - with over 400 people on their books. Robin says all staff are trained and equipped for "all circumstances". "So it's not that everyone is coming here and drinking way too much, but we have to ensure we have those robust measures in place to appropriately manage the sale of alcohol to people who might have had something to drink before they get here too."
