Gillian Anderson sparks debate over front-row theatre request

Gillian Anderson urged an audience member not to sit in the front row at her theatre show, saying it was distracting, according to a report by Metro. The exchange has drawn a divided reaction, with some defending the actress's need to focus during live performance and others criticising her treatment of a paying theatregoer.
Why now: People are debating whether performers can fairly ask audience members to move seats during a live show.
