Overview
- Video recorded by theatergoer Derek Kahle shows a man during intermission calling for security over disruptive behavior at a Broadway performance of Mamma Mia! at the Winter Garden Theatre.
- The man alleged the group behind him had been "loud and obnoxious" and using profanity near his teenage nieces, drawing a swift hush across the auditorium.
- Security spoke with those involved, the women exited before the second act, and the man returned to his seat apologetic.
- Witness Amy Cannella described the women as rambunctious and said they responded with expletives to requests to stop, while actress Carly Sakolove said she heard audience singing during "Money, Money, Money" from the stage.
- The clip has millions of views, a social-media poll tallied roughly 55% support for the man’s response, and the production has not issued a comment.
