Ba’al Koreh and Managing the Noise

The ba’al koreh should remain quiet until the noise dies down, as the congregants will not hear the Megillah. If there is a lot of noise and the ba’al koreh started reading the Megillah anyways, he should go back and repeat those words to make sure all people present hear the entire Megillah. It is a good idea to read the Megillah in case you miss a word or two.
