Who is going to Hamilton tonight? — Page 2

Auggie27 said: "So let him buy a ticket for 2018 like everybody else. Why should house seats be provided to him? If the company loathes his policies, fascism and racism (and why shouldn't they?). He's not being denied access, just not given priority seating via producers/others' house seats..



Who's providing him house seats? It wasn't him going tonight. It was just a hypothetical, philosophical discussion. Get a grip, dude.

Sorta sounds like the kind of society we can expect if Trump gets elected....

I have a grip, generally, thank you. I'm responding to someone above, somewhere, suggesting that he was awarded seats by the producers. Jeez, who cares? Maybe he'll go, for whatever fee, and learn something, I loathe him, loathe his effing ascendancy, and test my "grip" whenever I see him get anything. My grip is actually tenuous, okay, there, I admitted it.

Worst thread ever.

Allegiance had a seat reserved for him at every show and he never showed up, so I doubt Hamilton will see him anytime soon...

BroadwayConcierge said: "To Trump's credit, why should he have cared about or even have been aware of Allegiance even existing? Hamilton is a bit of a different story."

Because he commented that he might have supported the Japanese interment camps, which got a lot of press, and since that was in the news while Allegiance was playing, the show was written up as a result, which is why they reserved the seat for him.... and since Trump is a total narcissist, and is always online, why wouldn't he totally know about it?

Anyone who says this is the worst thread, ever, might want to revisit some others. Maybe about "Gigi," for starters.
