'The Pitt' Fans Heckled Isa Briones During 'Just in Time' Musical

The Pitt fandom is a passionate one. They don't hold back their opinions of the medical show's characters online, and apparently in person. Isa Briones addressed fans about their behavior during her Broadway show, Just in Time.

Isa Briones Calls 'The Pitt' Yellers 'Disrespectful'

Briones, 27, plays Dr. Trinity Santos on The Pitt. Her character was introduced, making harsh comments to other medical students in season 1. She also rightfully called out the bad behavior of multiple characters, which made her a polarizing character.

The actress is playing Connie Francis on stage between seasons, and used her Instagram Story on April 2, to address fans in the audience, according to Variety.

"HEY HEY HEY!: started the message in white texts over a black background. "Once again, Broadway is not a circus. Do not yell whatever you want at the performers. Yelling 'when are you going to finish your charts' before I sing 'Who's Sorry Now?' is f---ing disrespectful to the performers onstage and your fellow audience members. Y'all are pissin' me off."

Season 2 ended with a nice surprise for Santos. She blows off steam with Dr. Melissa King (Taylor Dearden) by singing "You Oughta Know" by Alanis Morissette at karaoke. It's unlikely The Pitt fans will get to see Broines' singing abilities again.

The heckle about Briones finishing her charts was in reference to her character's struggle at the task throughout season 2. It was a somewhat funny subplot against the chaos of the hospital

Fans of the HBO show weren't happy with Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle) either. The character was criticized for being too harsh on Dr. Mohan (Supriya Ganesh).

Briones replaced Sarah Hyland in the musical at the Square Theatre. Her Broadway debut was playing Eurydice in Hadestown in 2024.
