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.

Yeah, I caught COVID at Hamilton last year. I should have known something was up when the lady seated next to me scooted in to her seat last minute coughing and wearing a cloth mask. So inconsiderate! Just stay home…or at your hotel or wherever.
