Did I Miss Something?

Charles Isherwood recently wrote an article in the New York Times about the experience of public viewing of theater.  When seeing a play, everyone has had the experience at least once of sitting in the theater when everyone around them is having a smashing good time, laughing and cheering, but you just sit there trying to figure out what just happened on stage.  Isherwood discusses the many permutations of this syndrome and I think he does a pretty cool job of mapping it out.  Enjoy!
