A few years ago, I attended a performance at the Shubert and an usher chased women out of the men's room and told them it was a health code violation for them to be in there. Whether that's true or not, I have no idea, but it got them out.

now that you mention it i think this was the excuse they used when they - usually unsuccessfully, and often in carolina btw - tried to run men out of the women's room in gay bars years ago. there used to be this great gay bar in charlotte called the odyssey where the women's rest room was especially hopping.

it may even be true.

as issues around trans-folk using the restroom increase i expect such regulations will increase, especially in highly public places like theaters.
