When Vice President-elect Mike Pence went out for a night of theater in Manhattan, he probably didn’t expect to be the opening act.
Some of the attendees at a Friday night showing of “Hamilton,” Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Founding Fathers-themed Broadway musical, were apparently not thrilled to see the Indiana governor at the show.
They booed Pence as he found his seat.
There was some clapping and a few stray cheers, but in the video above, many of the theatergoers don’t sound very happy to have Donald Trump’s No. 2 man in the audience.
According to a tweet from Twitter user Christy Colburn, the crowd “booed him like crazy” and reacted to a few script lines in particular.
Ouch.
At the end of the show, the cast had a few choice words for Pence’s benefit too. A lesson from the past to the present.
