Obviously the terminally ill person agreed to it, and I think it's noone's damn right to take away that person's right to die in the manner they wish to die, Society has this horrible idea with keeping ppl alive at any cost. Of course it's right to protect those who wish to live or are being killed by another person against their will, but I really don't understand why the terminally ill have to go thru emaciation and intense pain just to follow blind belief in the "sanctity of life".
Is it a stunt? Of course.
Should they be allowed to do it? Absolutely. The only person that should be considered is the person dying. If a theater doesn't want to host it, they are in the right not to, but they shouldn't be barred by law from doing it at all. This person wants to die the way they have chosen, and why should we keep him captive to our ideals when we're not the ones slowly painfully dying? If it's at a show everyone paid a ticket to get there so the suicide isn't hurting an innocent person like someone killing themselves with a gun in public could. Just more crap to keep us from being free. You can bet If I wanted to make an early exit for ANY reason no law would stop me. You're given a life, and you should have the freedom to end it.
