The show must go on — unless audience members wo n’t stop singing along to the songs , causing a small riot to fall apart out in the aisles .
AsVarietyreports , that ’s on the nose what take place at a output ofThe Bodyguardin Manchester , England , on Friday , April 7 .
Not only does the musical covering fire songs from the1992 Whitney Houston – star movieit was found on — which boasts thebest - selling movie soundtrack of all time — but it also feature a bunch of other Houston hits that were n’t in the cinema , including “ How Will I Know , ” “ economise All My Love for You , ” and “ I Wanna Dance With Somebody . ” In short , it ’s no surprise that theater patron incline to know all the word . What ’s a flake more shocking is just how hell - bent some of them are on partake in that knowledge with everyone else .
Friday ’s Manchester performance at the Palace Theater , with former Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton in Houston ’s role , was first break in Act One because audience member were singing along . Though the show continued after that gush die out down , another upswell during “ I Will Always bang You ” proved tougher to defuse . As the gang ’s “ untuneful howl ” filled the auditorium , perVariety , Thornton ’s mike was turned off and the sign of the zodiac light were turned on . Footage from the fit demo security system guards forcibly ousting some rowdy frequenter who test and failed to reject their removal . Other patrons ask to societal sensitive to identify the “ mini riot ” and “ engagement in the gangway . ”
This time , the remainder of the show — only about 10 minutes — was cancel . Thornton and Ayden Callaghan , the titular bodyguard , both apologized and expressed their dashing hopes on social media .
Manchester does n’t have a monopoly on unruly musical lover : A runnel ofThe Bodyguardin Glasgow earlier this year prompt similar behaviour , which many Edgar Guest attributed totoo much drinkingbefore and during the show . If you desire to drink and sing , possibly forfeit the theater of operations in favour of the nearestkaraokebar .
