A woman says she was chucked out of a musical performance on her first time back in a theatre since the Covid lockdown by eight security guards after “tapping her thigh” along with the songs.
Dot Grant told how she felt “uncomfortable” when members of staff surrounded her in the lobby of the Edinburgh Playhouse following her removal from a matinee showing of Bat Out Of Hell at the historic venue.
The 52-year-old said audience members were not warned to stay silent throughout the production, adding she was prevented from seeing the grand finale despite complying with all mask-wearing regulations.
