【kaka礼节美语】057 剧院里的礼仪
去剧院也有一些讲究呢，你都知道哪些呢。看看今天的节目吧陈豪在北京的ABC美国公司工作，他到办公室去找美国同事Amy。
(Office ambience)
C：Amy, 今天晚上的表演你去吗？
A：Yes, I'm looking forward to it. Our new boss, Mr. Brown, is being kind to take us all to celebrate the success on our last project. Are you going?
C：去。可我从来没去过剧院。你给我讲讲要注意些什么。我可不想在老板面前丢人。
A：---1---.
C：我本来约好了跟朋友吃饭，然后再去。既然老板已经买了票，我们为什么还要提前到呢？
A：---2---.
C：反正已经有票了，表演开始前到不就行了吗？
A：---3---.
C：如果我坐在边上，里面的人后到，我该怎么做呢？
A：---4---.
C：如果表演开始后，坐在里面的人才到呢？
A：---5---.
C：谢谢你，Amy, 我们晚上见。

晚上表演中场休息。
C：Amy, 你觉得今天的表演怎么样？
A：The play is excellent, but I am having trouble seeing and hearing.
C：为什么？
A：Well, the woman in front of me has on a big hat. I am having trouble seeing. She wasn't being thoughtful when she decided to wear that monstrosity.
C： 什么叫monstrosity?
A：The word relates to monster. I suppose she wanted to dress up, but she overdid it. And by the way, what were you thinking when you decided to dress casually?
C：去剧院看表演还要穿西装打领带吗？
A：---6---.
C：可我去看电影的时候，从来都穿得很随便的呀！
A：---7---.
C：其实，我去之前也犹豫了一下。
A：---8---.

First of all, you do as the boss requests. Secondly, it is inconsiderate to arrive just as the curtain goes up
That is exactly the point. If your seat happens to be in the middle of the row, you will have to climb over everyone else
You might want to remain standing until those people turn up. Once the lights go down to signal that the show is beginning, take your seat
Ushers generally will not seat people after the performance has begun until there is an appropriate break. Be courteous and stand to make it easier for them to get by
Absolutely, the theater is a special event and people should dress up for the occasion. You should at least have worn a coat and tie
This isn't the movies. It is a sign of respect to the actors and the other theater goers to look your best
I wish you had asked me. Since you didn't, keep in mind that it is always better to dress up rather than dress down
