===The Mike Pence appearance===
−
In late November 2016 (after the election but before taking office) Vice-President-elect [[Mike Pence]] attended a performance. While there was some hostility from some in the audience, there were no significant problems. During a curtain call at the end, while Mr. Pence was starting to leave, a cast member read a statement to him. After urging the audience to be respectful, he said "Vice-President-elect Pence, we welcome you, and we truly thank you for joining us here at ''Hamilton: An American Musical'' ... [we] are alarmed and anxious that your new administration will not protect us ... But we truly hope that this show has inspired you to uphold our American values and to work on behalf of all of us."<ref>http://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2016/11/19/hamilton-mike-pence-message-broadway-ctn.cnn</ref> The reception of the speech was quite friendly under the circumstances. Mr. Pence later said that he wasn't offended and enjoyed the musical, and he understood the message that was being given. About the occasional boos from audience members, he said that this was "what freedom sounds like".<ref>http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/20/politics/mike-pence-hamilton-message-trump/</ref>
