"Bristol Riverside Theatre, can I help you?"

"Hi, yeah, uh - Michael Jackson's This Is It - is that playing at like....special theaters, or..."

::sigh::

"Ma'am... we're a theater that puts on LIVE productions. With a stage? Actors? This Is It is a movie, playing at standard movie theater. In fact, at any movie theater that likes to make money. Try Neshaminy AMC."

"...o-oh?... Thank you?"

"Yes. Good luck with that."

Click.

You could read a newspaper to see all the advertisements about This Is It and see clearly that all local movie theaters are playing it?
But no... you need to actually LOOK US UP in a phone book and call US. Really?
REALLY?

You have no idea how often something like this happens...

It's kind of hilarious.
And very sad.

It bothers me that Michael Jackson stole our TV show's name!

Once more, you should have said Yes, and it's a live performance because your theater only does live performances. THat would mess with someone's brain.
