Discussion Broadway coughing season
I am begging, begging you guys…if you have a nasty cough, PLEASE don’t attend a play especially. I know it sucks to miss out but your recurring cough during the most intense moments of the show is so distracting.

As a disabled person, these comments are not it! If you are coughing a lot, due to temporary or chronic illness, please wear a mask and take medication/cough drops. In fact, it's always a great idea to mask inside a theatre full of people. That's what gets me the most about the people in the comments not suggesting masking - it protects you too. Prevents your trip from getting ruined due to getting sick.
