Isa Briones, aged 27, posted on her Instagram Story on Saturday to reprimand fans who yelled during her Broadway performance over the weekend. Briones portrays Connie Francis in the production at the Circle in the Square Theatre. She stated, 'Once again, Broadway is not a circus.

’ is f—ing disrespectful to the performers onstage and your fellow audience members. The post has since expired. Representatives for Briones did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

This incident follows a similar reprimand Briones issued on April 11. Briones addressed a specific fan interaction in the April 11 post, stating, 'And don’t talk to me on stage and call me Dr. Santos.

I’m not Dr. Santos. I’m not even Connie Francis. I am Isa Briones, one of the actors in the show you have paid to enjoy. Briones made her Broadway debut as Eurydice in 'Hadestown' in 2024. She joined 'Just in Time' as Connie Francis last month.

The immersive play follows music icon Bobby Darin’s rise to fame, with Jeremy Jordan starring as Bobby Darin. Away from the stage, Briones stars as Dr. Trinity Santos in 'The Pitt' since it premiered on HBO Max in April 2025.

The procedural medical drama also features Noah Wyle as senior attending physician Dr. Robby and Patrick Ball as senior resident Dr. Frank. Season 1 of 'The Pitt' received 13 Emmy Awards, and Season 2 premiered earlier this year.

The band announced a concert in Paris on July 8 at the Accor Arena. Def Leppard's last concert in Paris was nearly 30 years ago. Joe Elliott, frontman of Def Leppard, appeared on arts24 ahead of the July 8 show.
