Betty Buckley Addresses Cell Phone Ringing During Monologue in HELLO, DOLLY!

[quote]Buckley reportedly paused and said "Is that for me?" in response to the phone going off. She paused before continuing "You know, there is a button to turn it off."

[quote]At the evenings curtain call, she also mimed talking on a cell phone.

While I was watching the play [italic] “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf”, [/italic] with Katherine what’s-her-name, and a phone went off. George has been speaking but he make a long pause.

Frank Langella said that when he thinks the audience is losing interest, he takes a long pause to regain their attention..
