1. The Power of Surprise

One of the most memorable audience reactions comes from the unexpected. At a performance of Sweeney Todd, a loud "WHAT THE HECK" echoed through the theater when the Judge proposed to Johanna. Similarly, during Hadestown, the collective shock when Orpheus turns is palpable, with reactions ranging from gasps to exclaiming, "what a fool!". These moments remind us that live theater is about shared experiences and communal reactions.
