A performance of “The Bodyguard” was cut short this weekend in Manchester, England, after audience members disrupted the show by singing along loudly to “I Will Always Love You.”
The truncated performance took place Saturday at the Palace Theatre and Opera House, which released a statement saying that “the last 10 minutes of the show needed to be cancelled due to disruptive customers refusing to stay seated and spoiling the performance for others.”
In video footage of the incident captured and shared by theatergoer Karl Bradley, at least one audience member can be heard shouting the lyrics to “I Will Always Love You” over the singing of “Bodyguard” star Melody Thornton. Another clip shows security guards removing two people from the balcony before police arrived on the scene.
