Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) was escorted out of a Denver theater in the middle of a performance Sunday night for allegedly ācausing a disturbance,ā according to a new report in The Denver Post on Tuesday.
A spokesperson for Boebertās campaign office confirmed to The Denver Post that Boebert was escorted out of the theater, but denied some of the behavior alleged in an incident report that The Denver Post obtained from venue officials.
The incident report, which did not include any names, said two patrons were asked to leave the theater about five minutes after the second act began of the touring Broadway musical āBeetlejuice.ā It claimed the two patrons were vaping, singing, recording and ācausing a disturbance.ā
Boebertās spokesperson, according to the Colorado newspaper, said the congresswoman denied vaping, but she admitted she took a photo during the performance and said she was not aware that photos were not allowed.
āI can confirm the stunning and salacious rumors: in her personal time, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert is indeed a supporter of the performing arts (gasp!) and, to the dismay of a select few, enthusiastically enjoyed a weekend performance of āBeetlejuice,āā Boebertās campaign manager, Drew Sexton, reportedly wrote in a statement to the newspaper.
According to the incident report, the two patrons were warned during intermission to stop certain behavior after three audience members complained. The report said the patrons were escorted out after security received another complaint āabout the patrons being loud and at the time (they) were recording,ā The Denver Post reported.
The two patrons, even after being escorted to the lobby of the theater, refused to leave.
āThey told me they would not leave. I told them that they need to leave the theater and if they do not, they will be trespassing. The patrons said they would not leave. I told them I would (be) going to get Denver Police. They said go get them,ā an usher said in the incident report, according to The Denver Post.
Police reportedly arrived and stayed in the lobby until the two patrons left.
The Hill has reached out to Boebertās office for comment.
Sheās paid by the GOP to be a loud actor on the political stage. How are people missing this? Theyāre literally on a payroll and each told how to act.
Thatās why we are all kinda confused when the GOP gets an Uncle Tom who throws their own under the bus.
Sometimes the simplest explanation is the right one. Sheās just an entitled idiot.
This isnāt going to help either her or the GOP.
ikr, itās like āfren? no wait, itās a trapā
