And yes, there are indeed tons of folks who would get the jokes, it's just that I've found that the pseudo-random sampling of whomever happens to be around me here often does not, which I sometimes find weird because it's already a theater context. Whereas in NY, the random strangers around me at the theater seem much more likely to get it.
Given that what this means is that we get a lot of people who otherwise have relatively little theater exposure, I don't think it's actually reflective of anything *bad*. Except that they ought to start listening to Standing Room Only. But really, everyone should.
