I participated in the audience of a show in Los Angeles a few years ago. Cringe City guys. You'd hate it.

There was a cheery gee-up guy came on first to get the audience warmed up, then he explained how the signs worked. Laugh, cheer, groan, etc. Then he got people to compete against one another for loudness.......oh lordy, I tried to shrink under my seat from embarrassment.

And the Yanks...?? They just lapped it up.

Guess it takes all sorts.
