Rosamund Pike sparked debate at the weekend after calling out an audience member for texting during her performance in Inter Alia in the West End – and now other leading industry figures have weighed in, with one top director calling for phones to be banned from theatres altogether.
Inter Alia star Pike, who recently won an Olivier award for her performance, told off an audience member during the curtain call at Wyndham’s Theatre in London on Saturday, revealing she had seen someone texting during a pivotal scene.
