Cast of Hamilton address vice-president elect Pence.
Spokesman for the cast said:
"We, sir, are the diverse America who are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us, our planet, our children, our parents, or defend us and uphold our inalienable rights,"
If "we" and "diverse" means a cross-section of all America then wouldn't you expect that half the cast would have voted FOR Trump. But if all the cast had voted against Trump then the cast is neither representative or diverse.
Naturally there is a flaw in my logic (blame it on the boogie).
Mikey, //Why shouldn't the cast of this very successful musical show their concern ?//
They can – just not there. People pay to go to the theatre and they expect to be entertained – not to be subjected to the political opinions of the cast. That was neither the time nor the place. I would find it to be in extremely poor taste.
/// The cast of Hamilton should be ashamed. They have no right to lecture Vice President-elect Mike Pence or challenge his space in the theatre. It seems to me, those who preach tolerance have become the most intolerant of them all. ///
