Drinking the Night Away - A Cautionary Tale

So, I'm sitting in the Geary last night, watching the first half of At Home at the Zoo, and I keep getting these random whiffs of scotch in my nose. Very confusing--I wondered if someone around me was simply at the performance so much against their will that they had to get drunk first, or what. But it turns out the explanation was much more mundane: there was guy with a full-on two inches of scotch in a glass two seats down, sipping it nice as you please.

It made me wonder, in this era of trying to break down barriers to attendance (things like allowing people to bring drinks into the theatre) how do we identify and deal with the unintended consequences? Not that the guy was belligerent or unpleasant in any way--not even that he spilled or broke his glass or whatever. Simply that snorting scotch in the theatre wasn't something I'd envisioned with my Albee, and it took me just slightly out of the experience every time I caught the smell. As a marketer, this unintended consequence gave me pause--I'm a big proponent of things like drinks in the theatre, texting during shows--anything that is, generally speaking, a relatively minor change to theatre etiquette--but how fascinating when a "minor change" so directly and unexpectedly affects others.

  29. Assignments are assigned by professors and teachers at colleges and universities to help students gain knowledge in a specific area. They are graded and are crucial as they will be included to the student's academic score. Students today don't have enough time to complete their assignments because they are in a variety of activities, such as getting ready for exams, writing notes on various topics, taking part in sports and concerts, or making money or working, etc. So, they forget about their assignments and are stressed when the deadline for submission comes up. Nursing is among the assignments that require effort and is demanding in time.

    "Drinking the night away can seem like an enticing tale, a fleeting escape from reality. But remember, every glass is a chapter in your story, and every shot is a plot twist. Be the author of your night, not just a character lost in the pages. A cautionary tale: moderation writes the best ending, where memories are cherished, and regrets remain unwritten." 🍻📖 #DrinkResponsibly
