There was added drama onstage at “Eclipsed” on Saturday night.
A spy at the play said, “During Act I, a woman in the first row started video recording the performance on her iPhone.”
The insider added, “When Tony-nominated star Lupita Nyong’o noticed, she “stopped her monologue, and, in character, glared at the woman for what felt like two minutes. The audience was stunned. It sure made things more dramatic.”
We hear the offending woman’s phone was confiscated at intermission.
A rep said there’s been “chronic photo-taking and video-making during” the show of Nyong’o, which is “completely inappropriate.”
Nyong’o’s already won an Obie for her role.
