Trump Demands Apology From Hamilton Cast
President-elect Donald Trump says the cast of the Broadway hit Hamilton should apologize to his Vice President-elect.
Mike Pence attended the blockbuster show Friday night. After the curtain call, he got an earful from star Brandon Victor Dixon, who spoke from the stage, saying the multiracial and multicultural cast is ``alarmed and anxious'' about the new administration.
On Twitter Saturday, Trump said Pence was ``harassed'' and ``this should not happen.''
In another message, Trump said ``the Theater must always be a safe and special place'' and said the cast was ``very rude.'' He added: ``Apologize!''
Dixon tweeted back at Trump, saying ``conversation is not harassment.''
Dixon plays Aaron Burr, the nation's third vice president. He said in an interview on Broadway.com that he hopes the show left an impact, saying he hopes ``he thinks of us every time he has to deal with an issue or talk about a bill or present anything.'' (Associated Press)
