In sympathy for our fellow audience members, Playbill.com offers an illustrated guide of the stages of being an annoyed theatregoer.
1. When people aren't on time for the show
2. When people unwrap candy or throat drops during the performance
3. When people yell the actors' names when they walk onstage
4. When people comment on the action onstage
5. When people sing along
6. When people's phones vibrate nonstop with text messages
7. Or even worse, when their phones ring during the show
8. When you make eye contact with the offending audience member on your way out
9. When you finally are leaving the show — and can say goodbye to the rude audience members
