Theater Uses Live Ninjas for Noisy Moviegoers - as part of the news series by GeoBeats.

We’ve all seen TV shows and films featuring angry movie ushers, quick to scold rowdy customers but most real-life theaters aren't so strict.

Hi, this is Matt and I want to tell you about a theater in London that has come up with a fun approach for disciplining noisy movie goers. The Prince Charles theater has partnered with Morphsuits, a company specializing in skin-tight body suits to create a base of theater ninjas, who will crack down on disorderly patrons. Although the ninjas won’t be trained in any formal martial arts, they will be there to deliver the signature “shhhhhh” sound and issue a warning if needed. The ninjas are volunteers and as an exchange for their security type of work, they will receive free admission into movies.

A spokesperson for the theater states “The ‘Cinema Ninjas’ may sound ludicrous, but they have been a real success in clamping down on those ruining films for everyone else.”

The ninjas hide in the darkest spots and corners during the film, watching and waiting to pounce on unsuspecting, rude customers.

What do you think about these ninjas - good or bad idea?
