Patronising and infantilising.
As if a West End theatre audience is going to be any way threatening.
Performative nonsense.

Silly nonsense. It must surely be illegal under anti-discrimination law. I look forward to someone bringing a lawsuit against them.
However, it's not the equivalent of all-white performances, because historically whites have been the oppressors, blacks the oppressees.

It's not being enforced, it's just a suggestion, so there's no chance that they could be done under the anti discrimination law. The point then being that I think someone could suggest an 'all white night' on that basis- I'm not saying it is the same thing, or the right thing
