Now hear this: Kevin Kline stops 'Cyrano' to answer audience member's complaint

Garrison resident Kevin Kline was a show-stopper in more ways than one for a recent staging of “Cyrano de Bergerac,” according to a report by Cindy Adams in today’s New York Post.
In the middle of a packed house for a Wednesday night performance of the Broadway revival, a “little bald old man” in row Q yelled “Speak up louder!”
Reports Adams:
Kline never faltered. In character, right in the middle of his scene, he adlibbed, ‘Methinks I hear ghosts in the theater.’ The audience broke up. They applauded. And the play moved right along. But from then on, the speech level didst indeed kick up a notch.
Personally, I would have preferred if Kline broke into mime for the remainder of the show, but he’s a classier guy than I am.
