During a recent performance of Broadway’s Cabaret, Adam Lambert, portraying the Emcee, confronted an audience member who laughed at an antisemitic lyric in the song “If You Could See Her.” Without breaking character, Lambert addressed the patron, stating, “No. This is not comedy. Pay attention.” Witnesses and social media users supported Lambert’s actions, expressing concern over the audience’s reaction. Lambert later emphasized that the production aims to provoke thought and foster empathy towards marginalized groups.
