Mother bans children from private Wicked screening over no-singing rule

A mother in Illinois rented a theater for a private screening of "Wicked," but banned her own children due to a strict no-singing rule. She created guidelines for the event, including costume requirements and no loud chewing. The film adaptation of the popular musical, starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, premiered on November 22. AMC Theatres has also reinforced its no-singing policy for all screenings, emphasizing the importance of a quiet environment. For fans wanting to sing along, special sing-along screenings will be available at about 1,000 cinemas starting December 25.
