They failed at that by feeling the need to deliver a partisan political message.

Which part of that message was partisan? That was a direct statement of their feelings and fears to the man who has been elected vice president.

They didn't challenge his legitimacy. They didn't refuse to perform while he was in the audience.

They did their job, and at the end of the show they used their opportunity to ask him to make sure the administration he is a part of represents them, as well.

Did they deliver the same message to Hillary when she was in attendance? No?
It was a partisan message. And, not appropriate.

Were Hillary's proposed policies threatening them?

Sorry, completely inappropriate. The man was just trying to have a pleasant evening out with his family, and he has to be subjected to that.

Too bad. It's a show about politics performed by people Pence would send to electroshock therapy to "convert."

If he can't stand the heat, he should get out of the kitchen.

How the hell could they possibly deliver that message to Hillary when Hillary's policies did not negatively impact immigrants and minorities and women?

Nothing Trump does is appropriate. So you can stop using that word like it means something to you.

First of all, there was nothing disrespectful in the post show comments.

Second of all, if Pence is too thinned skin for that feedback from fellow Americans, then he is in for a very rough ride as Vice President.

i have no problem if the cast member delivered the same message privately after the show (or before). But to do it publicly makes it a partisan and inappropriate statement.

What's next, will national anthem signers at ball games make personal statements in front of 40,000 people after singing the anthem. Will metro train drives start making annoucements over the intercom on the Red Line? Is that also appropriate? No, because that is not the time or place for expressing their personal opinions.

Do you think that most of Trump Nation can afford to spend hundreds of dollars for Hamilton tickets? This is a show by liberal elites for liberal elites. And 'diversity' is obviously overrated!

Again, find a new word! Your new president has clearly shown he doesn't GAF what is "appropriate." Don't like it? Should have voted in someone else. I'd just get used to it if I were you/them.

Agree. You didn't see this level of disrespect (or riots!) when the Republicans lost.

So you are not interested in discussing the question rationally. Ok.

I simply disagree. Well, maybe the WMATA one, because it is quasi-government, but otherwise, entertainers, athletes and regular Americans have the right to express themselves when and where they want. Just because you are uncomfortable with the message doesn't make your opinion right. You probably agree that is ok for a town to display a manger scene at Christmas time (I do), but possibly object to Channukah lights as well? It isn't dis-similar, other than the religious component.

If you don't like it, then don't go to the play or download its soundtrack.

Um yes you did. Or do you not recall the "not our president" protests by people who insisted on calling him Barack Hussein? There absolutely was disrespect when Obama won.

It's not rational to say this speech was "inappropriate" but Muslim registries, or building walls is not. That is my discussion of it.

People save up for months to go to NYC and splurge. People wait in the TKTS line for hours to get discounted seats.

You make this statement and ignore that "most of Trump Nation" also doesn't live in penthouse apartments with gold-plated toilet seats, or can afford to stay in a Trump branded hotel, or play on a Trump-branded golf course.

Instead, the republicans spent 8 years challenging that the President was an American with the corresponding digressions of basic human respect.

We are all in this society together. Thousands of people are having their pleasant day/evening interrupted by graffiti stating "Trump Nation with swastikas." Why should the men who ushered in this hate have their night interrupted?!
