The performance was great, but the parents in the audience did not expect their children to behavior in any type of polite manner.

The performance was excellent as always. My only comment is that they have separate performances for children matinees. My experience was awful because I missed significant portions of the show because of children being allowed to walk back & forth in the aisles, bounce up & down on their parents laps, eat out of potato chip bags(during the performance).I sat in front of a family that was allowed to bring in a coolie so that their children could break out the sandwiches and drinks. I would expect this type of behavior at the movies but didn't expect it at the Wang. Definitely a disappointment. I don't think that it is reasonable to pay exorbitant fees to sit next to someone's child that was just plain bored and didn't know what to do about it.I think that it is wonderful for a child to experience the ballet, however, it would be more appropriate if they had special performances where it wouldn't matter if they were disruptive.It's not the child fault, but the adult. I will never visit on Sun. Collapse
