Noel Coward once asked in song, "Why Must The Show Go On?" That thought might have been on the minds of Neil Diamond fans that, according to this article, walked out on his concert Monday night when the singer, who was diagnosed the next day with acute laryngitis, performed a complete concert in a raspy voice. Diamond has offered refunds for anyone making a request.

While stars like Harvey Fierstein and Elaine Stritch are often praised for their high attendance records, would you feel entitled to a refund if you saw a performance by a Broadway star that was obviously under the weather or vocally tired? Let us know in our new poll.
