President-elect Donald Trump is calling for an apology from the cast of the Broadway show “Hamilton,” after they issued a public statement to his running mate, Mike Pence, following a performance Friday night.
The evening started with several audience members booing Pence as he entered the theater and made his way to his seat.
“We welcome you and truly thank you for joining us here,” Dixon said. “We are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us. Our children, our parents all defend us and uphold our inalienable rights. But we truly hope that this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and work on behalf of all of us.”

Mr. No Safe Spaces wants the theater to 'be safe'.
I love irony so I made a little wee when I read that.

As I have been told over and over here on ATS, they are at work. Shut up and do what you are paid to do, be good little boys and girls and do what you are told.
In other words shut up and sing.

Let's see if the liberals will eat some crow and do it.
Why should they? What is there to apologize for?
Hamilton' musical runs into trouble over 'non-white' casting notice
The producers of the hip-hop historical musical "Hamilton" have run into trouble over a recent open casting notice seeking "non-white" singers for Broadway and upcoming touring versions of the hit show.
Actors' Equity Assn. criticized the notice, which appeared on the official "Hamilton" website, saying that the race qualification is inconsistent with its policies that provide for equal opportunity throughout the theatrical industry.
The "non-white" casting calls were set to take place in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco over the next two months. The original notice read that producers were seeking "NON-WHITE [sic] men and women, ages 20s to 30s."

Calling the VP a racist and homophobe bigot when there is no proof is about as rude as it gets.
