[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been to a lot of musicals, in NYC, London, Toronto. The ushers wait for a suitable break, between scene changes. They wouldn’t wait until intermission, that would be too long.
I was at the ballet seeing Swan Lake and even then, people were entering after scene change. I was seated near exit, decided never again to sit close to the door.

About the seat assignment, it’s rude to not sit in your assigned seat. I once booked seats exactly in the middle, front row of mezzanine, months prior for a special occasion. When we arrived, someone was in one of our seats, before the show had started. They were a group of 3 and wanted to sit together, which would require taking one of our middle seats. Otherwise she had to sit two seats apart from her two friends, I said sorry no, this is where we want to sit, and she reluctantly got up but gave me the evil eye.  I don’t know what her problem was, I’ve gone to shows and sat by myself and it’s not like you’re socializing together during the show.

So OP I don’t think your complaint will go anywhere. The tickets aren’t cheap, why would they make people miss half the performance if they’re 15-20 minutes late?

[/quote] The tickets not being cheap is why I am annoyed. It's not right to have people who bothered to get there on time have their experience affected by people who didn't. We left the house early to make sure we'd be there with plenty of time. I can't say that they waited until breaks to let people in because we were not near an exit and there were so many looking for seats for so long that i felt constant.[/quote]
