As a seasoned movie-goer who has witnessed the evolution of audience engagement from whispering sweet nothings to strangers during romantic dramas to shouting obscenities at action heroes, I find myself intrigued by this ongoing saga of singing in theaters. Having sat through my fair share of operatic performances and musicals, I can’t help but empathize with Cynthia Erivo’s enthusiasm for audience participation.
Following Dwayne Johnson‘s remarks on theater audiences singing, Cynthia Erivo echoed his sentiments during an interview at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. The discussion has been lively ever since Wicked premiered, as many people have spoken against the notion. However, it appears that the cast members hold a different viewpoint. Erivo voiced her opinion, urging fans to enjoy themselves and express themselves in this manner, but her recent statement is causing even more debate.
Excellent! I’m on board with that decision. After all the times we’ve sung it ourselves, it’s high time others start joining us,” Erivo expressed (through TVLine).
Ariana Grande, one of her co-stars, also shows no opposition to performing in theaters. In fact, both Grande and Erivo have expressed their approval for audience participation by singing along if it brings joy during the film. Nonetheless, even with their endorsement, cinemas are still requesting patrons not to sing along during the movie screening.
At AMC Theatres specifically, they’ve implemented steps to encourage quietness during screenings. They display two different types of silence reminders for their patrons – one sign prior to entering the theater and another themed announcement before the movie commences. Ryan Noonan, a representative of the company, mentioned that this warning is routine, but due to anticipating potential conflicts with the upcoming musical, they chose to take precautions in advance.
He stated that the pre-show announcement, titled “The Courteous Showtime,” delivers the film’s main ideas in an enjoyable and interactive manner. It serves as a friendly reminder to cinema-goers to be mindful of their fellow viewers, ensuring everyone can have an uninterrupted movie experience.
One way to rephrase the given text in a natural and easy-to-read manner is as follows:
As a cinema-goer, I can’t help but express my dismay towards those overzealous singers who seem determined to spoil the magic of “Wicked” from the very first day. It’s akin to performing on stage when everyone came for Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, not for an impromptu concert in the cinema. Indeed, it might be wiser to hold off on the singing along until “Wicked” becomes available for streaming, where your audience can truly appreciate your talent without disrupting the experience of others.
Fortunately, if you’re excited and can’t wait, there will be approximately 1,000 cinemas throughout North America offering sing-along screenings during the Christmas season, beginning on December 25th.
Wicked is now playing in theaters worldwide, with Part 2 set to drop on November 21, 2025.
