Adele left Jeremy O. Harris devastated when she left his play before it even started because it was too long.
The playwright was stunned to learn the Easy on Me singer was keen to see his Off-Broadway production Daddy and managed to obtain tickets for her at the last minute, but he was horrified when she walked out of the theatre 10 minutes before curtain up because the smell from the swimming pool used in the set was making her feel nauseous.
After recounting how the production was sold out but he ultimately secured six tickets for the 33-year-old superstar on the same weekend she was spotted with Jennifer Lawrence on the Joy actress' hen party, he admitted he was unsure whether to tell the cast, which was led by Alan Cumming and Hari Neff but ultimately the decision was taken out of his hands.
He tweeted: "Danya [Taylor, director] and I freak out. At this point we are still green theatremakers who've had some brushes with the kind of dream celeb shout outs in support of the work that can be life changing, but ADELE IS ADELE and this was huge.
