The smell was 'yikes' inded. I was lucky enough to get to see how it was done a few days later though and considering they only use real and sharp weapons in Stratford (Canada, not UK) and have to re-rehearse all scenes involving said weapons before every single show, I shouldn't be surprised by their shenenigans anymore.
It actually switched to 'Rooster' after a few hours and yes, there are definitely way worse tunes to be stuck on
