The ASO has the Force!
by Cardigan Queen on 5/18/23Atlanta Symphony Hall - AtlantaQuick review! The ASO is awesome. These movie events where they play the score are so much fun. Sometimes I can’t decide if I want to stare at the symphony performing or watch the movie. We go about once a year to these events so if you are debating on going, our family are big fans. We have been taking the kids since they were elementary schoolers. Complaints…Symphony Hall was REALLY warm this year. It was a packed house and it was uncomfortably warm and stuffy, so much so that my husband, who even had an aisle seat, was considering leaving. As the movie began and the lights went down, and everyone went silent in anticipation, the Star Wars opening lines began scrolling on the screen, one of the ushers screamed out “NO PHONES OR RECORDING!!” completely ruining the sense of wonder and excitement. My family was so mad. It was uncalled for and that female usher who was on the left loge needs to be reprimanded for spoiling that moment for so many people.
