Second Empt. Yes. Of course, one ought to listen to what's going on, even if you don't care what it's all about.
Fourth Empt. Quite so. Not that it isn't pleasant to look round the house.
Rest of Audience (angrier than ever). Hush! S-s-s-h-s-h!
Third Empt. Yes, I often think that this side of the curtain is quite as amusing as the other.
Fourth Empt. I wonder what they are doing on the stage? Oh, I see that the Act is nearly over! Well, I daresay it has been very amusing.
Rest of Audience (furious). Hush! Hush! Hush!
First Empt. There descends the curtain! By the way, what a noise those people in the pit have been making! I wonder what it was all about?
Second Empt. I haven't the faintest notion. However, when the play begins again, I hope they won't make any more noise. It is so disrespectful to the Audience.
First Empt. And the Company. Why can't people behave themselves in a theatre?
Second, Third, and Fourth Empt. (in chorus). Ah yes! Why can't they?
