Be prepared for audience participation, and don’t try to hide from the actors! They’ll only be more likely to notice you if you’re obviously trying to avoid their gaze. Don’t worry about it too much, the interactive parts are generally intended to be comical rather than scary, and the actors aren’t allowed to touch guests.
