Keira Is Heckled: Where’s Patti LuPone?
Miss Patti would have ripped him a new whatever. I’m talking about the boorish fan who, last night, disrupted the first preview of Zola’s “Therese Raquin” on Broadway to declare his love for the production’s star, Keira Knightley (pictured). Various accounts on social media describe the male fan as being intoxicated, shouting about Jesus, and tossing a bouquet of roses onto the stage of Studio 54 (did the heckler think the place is still a nightclub?) before being removed. It was film star Knightley’s Broadway debut. Oh, and the heckler reportedly shouted, “Christ was born of a virgin! Keira marry me!” Makes quite a change from Zola.
