cell phones

Antonio Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" was on the bill at Tuesday morning's Chamber concert at the Dock Street and the ensemble (headed by flutist extraordinaire Paula Robison) was just about to launch into "Summer" when a cell phone began to ring in the audience. Paula would have had every right to be furious but she handled it with grace and humor by pretending to hold a phone up to her ear and saying "Hello, Antonio. It's going  well."   Why can't people remember to turn their cell phones off when entering a theater? Maybe we need something like a metal detector at the entrance to make sure all phones are off!
