Power cut to school play as parents clap and cheer too loud

A school play in a village hall was cut short — after parents clapped and cheered too loudly.

The Jungle Book show was halted when triggered a noise-limiter which cut the power.

The incident sparked outrage among the 130 audience and performers in award-winning Waltham-on-the-Wolds, Leics.

A children’s disco and a charity race night were also plunged into silence when the noise-limiter cut in.
