You need to go but you don’t want to miss a moment of the film you’ve been dying to see in case something pivotal happens in your absence. You check your watch, there’s at least another hour and a half to go of the film. Then it dawns on you that you need the toilet. You’ve eaten all your popcorn within the first hour of the film and you’re about to drink the last of whatever is in your oversized cup. It’s a hotly anticipated release that has got everyone talking. You’re at the cinema to see a film that you’ve been wanting to see for a while. When everything eventually wraps up, everybody goes home at the end of the night.
You feel refreshed, rejuvenated and ready to see how the production will come to a conclusion. The bell rings and it’s time to go back into the auditorium and take your allocated seat. You top up your drink, use the toilet, briefly discuss with your company about what you’ve seen so far. The first act goes off without a hitch and you are given a 15 minute break before the next act. Could be a play, a musical, an opera or a stand up comedy show.
