    I heard a short interview with the opera houses intendant (if I recall correctly) and he was pretty unphased unfazed by this story. He said that it was not uncommon that a few of the 1400 guests of the opera house get nauseous during a show especially on hot days when air gets stale…

    Sounded like he wasn’t convinced the nausea during the Santa performance was because of the play itself.

      “fazed” means “disconcerted or perturbed”, just FYI, and I will take my downvotes now
