Maltz Performing Arts Center — Attraction in Cleveland

My husband and I visited tonight with a group of friends. Two gentleman sat in front of us and about ten minutes into the production as my husband whispered to me the gentleman turned around and said “if you can’t control yourself see yourself out”.
