Theater fans have received 15 trigger warnings for a performance of Phantom of the Opera, including that it contains images of violence and death.
The theater of his Majesty has released a guide for the audience of the musical, which is considered suitable for the age of eight and older, whereby the public members are told of the potential triggers.
Viewers are warned to expect loud sounds, arms shots, flashy lights, haze, fire, pyrotechnics and images of violence and death on certain points during the performance.
The production runs until September, with tickets that start at £ 25.
The decision of the Andrew Lloyd Webber Show producers is 'Beyond Parody' branded.
Warnings in the show include 'Haze Effects' in the cave, 'flames over the stage' and even a warning for a 'flashy chandelier' only five minutes after production.
In the second act there are nine content warnings with a 'fire stick' without flashes, a shot (loud bang) and a 'pyro candle'.
The warnings also give away a part of the plot by absorbing the timings of the curtains of two characters.
