In September of 2015, a mother and her young son sat in the audience of “The King and I” on Broadway.


During a particularly emotional and violent scene, the woman’s son began crying and screaming. Embarrassed, she began to panic as the other audience members grew angry about the unwelcome interruption. After a few minutes, she had to pick up her son and take him out of the theater.

As it turned out, the little boy is autistic.

While many people were furious that their Broadway experience was ruined during a powerful scene in the musical, one of the actors on stage took to Facebook to express a very different opinion. “I am angry and sad,” his message begins.


“Just got off stage from today’s matinee and yes, something happened. Someone brought their autistic child to the theater. That being said — this post won’t go the way you think it will.”

Kelvin’s Facebook post went viral with tens of thousands of shares, but wait ’til you see why. Scroll down to see what Kelvin wrote to the child who interrupted his performance…
