Dear Annie:
Last week, my husband and I went to a wonderful concert. But I knew I was not going to enjoy it to the fullest when the woman beside me started to hum. We had great seats that were costly1. I wanted to ask this woman to keep quiet, but decided2 against it. I thought of having an usher3 speak to her, but I didn't want to stand up and interrupt other people's enjoyment4 of the concert.
This is not the first time something like this has happened. Once, during "The Nutcracker," a mother sitting behind us explained the whole play to her daughter, yakking5 throughout the entire performance. What is the best way to deal with annoying people at a public performance? - Hummed Out in Prospect6, Conn.
Dear Prospect:
We're going to give a semi-pass to the woman who explained "The Nutcracker" to her daughter because that performance is intended for children and it helps if they understand what is going on. However, she should have done it more quietly. As for the Hummer, it is OK to say politely, "I'm sure you don't realize your humming is audible. I'd be grateful if you'd tone it down." If she won't stop, it's worth finding an usher. Some people arrogantly7 believe the price of a ticket entitles them to disturb everyone else. It does not.
