I haven't read the linked article, but the comments on this Metafilter post are devolving into theatre stories, if that's your bag.

But it happens to the best of us - I read once that during a production of Shakespeare in Central Park that Denzel Washington was in, he had come down to the front of the stage to deliver his opening monologue - and suddenly a mama raccoon jumped up on stage, her three little babies trailing behind her, and trotted across the stage right in front of him before disappearing into the wings. The audience completely lost it, and Denzel had to also turn upstage for a few moments to get it together before he could go on.

This was the 1990 Richard III and that absolutely happened. (Not that I remember, I probably wasn't even there, I was two, but my mother does!)

Cool! XD

I have seen a goose crash Macbeth, but the cast did an impressive job of ignoring it and the raccoon sounds funnier.
