"Briones posted a story on May 2 calling out fans who have heckled her at recent performances of the musical Just in Time on Broadway, where she's been playing the character Connie Francis since April. She specifically points out someone who yelled 'When are you going to finish your charts?' a reference to Trinity's subplot in the second season in which the medical resident has an increased workload in the ER."
"Once again, Broadway is not a circus. Do not yell whatever you want at the performers. Yelling 'When are you going to finish your charts' before I sing 'Who's Sorry Now' is so f*cking disrespectful to the performers onstage and your fellow audience members. Y'all are pissing me off."

Heckling and crowdplay content dominates social media, especially in the standup space, and it feels like a lot of people just don't understand that the rules of engagement for all of these vary."
