The 59-year-old said: "These two women started shouting at each other with expletives, very loudly. Everyone heard them over the actual show."It was right at the back of the stalls and after a few minutes, everyone had turned and were watching that instead of the play which isn’t great.

It was getting more and more raucous. They had to put the house lights up, actors went off stage and then all the security and staff had to come and try and get them out."I have never seen anything quite as bad as that.

I was a bit rattled and wanted to get out of there and I think everyone was feeling the same."We didn’t know how it would pan out, if we got something thrown at us then we would get sucked into it.
