Turn your cell phones off

During the show last Thursday night, someone forgot to turn off their cell phone. It started ringing in the middle of scene 2.1a. This is the scene where Portia and Bassanio are dancing before Bassanio chooses the casket. The phone kept ringing so Bassanio stopped the show. He said "is anyone going to claim this device?" Nobody did. Finally, a lady sitting in the front row on the right side checked in her purse and then ran out of the theater. She was found in the bathroom by backstage management crying because she was so embarrassed. The moral of the story is: Turn off your phones!
