Taught a Lesson at The Globe

I am often embarrassed by our people's total disregard of or disinterest in "culture".   I admit I use this term loosely because it means different things to different people. 

However, tonight when a bunch of what I would have assumed were unruly teenage girls in The Globe forced there by a school trip, went genuinely nuts with applause at the end of Henry VI Part 1, I was very pleased.

I love when I get proved wrong about my first impressions. 

Anyone had similar things happen to them?

I started to post something like this a while back.

Getting on the bus late one day I was faced with probably 40 animated teenagers. After just a few moments of hearing their conversations, I realised that they had been to a technology symposium and were revved up over all the stuff they had heard. It was a group future programmers.

 

This isn't exclusive to Americans obviously, but I just notice them more often because of the accents and my husband rolling his eyes and saying "your people again".
