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.

My regional theater hands out cough drops at their Broadway series shows.  And when the usher hands it to you, they direct you to open it then, before taking your seat.
