When children have grieving parents it's also common for them to feel an obligation to cheer them up and make them happy.
Many actors have protested about mobile phones going off in theatres, but the real menace now is people texting during a show. It may only disturb a few people around them, but for me, as an actor, when I spot them answering their emails, I am outraged.
Shakespeare wrote all there is that we need to know about dementia in 'King Lear.'
