Isaac talks about this, as it's been discussed all over the place for some reason.
Is it just a slow summer?
No, it's not okay to boo. It's just bad manners. Does that need more explanation? Perhaps an online survey?

The only show I can possibly imagine myself booing is one that is blatantly prejudiced - not merely offensive or provocative, but unapologetically racist, or homophobic, or sexist, or the like.
A show I directed was booed by an audience member who took a comment on racism for racism itself. I was strangely thrilled - at least I provoked a strong response in him.
My 1 minute play was booed in Chicago. The title of it was, "Babies Are Dumb & Nobody Cares."
