“Benedict Cumberbatch urges fans not to take photos during Hamlet play”

This is why we can’t have nice things. For fuck’s sake, fangirls and boys, behave yourselves. You shouldn’t need to be asked.

share and enjoy

Phone/camera lockers. Like a cloakroom, but smaller. Or you can keep it turned off in your bag if you like. If you’re seen with a phone, you get thrown out. Simple enough, for any venue prepared to treat its patrons like grown-ups.

Clever boy, telling them right up front (in essence), film this and share – maybe the word will spread.
