The cast should not apologize, if Donald Trump hasn't apologized for his hateful rhetoric, why should they?
That is what is so ironic. This is a guy who has never apologized for any of the truly rude and disgusting things he has said and done. And he has the gall to tweet out this crap and demand apologies from actors?
Not only are his actions ironic, I'm betting he doesn't even know what irony is.

the difference is Trump has defended himself when attacked first from Rosie, the Machado bimbo and the rest.
Pence hasn't attacked anybody, he went to a play in New York with his family to watch a play. Not to get lecture by an actor over his politics, that is not part of the play.
Imagine if Obama and Michelle went to a play in a deep south and a redneck actor did that on stage to ridicule Obama and the crowd started booing Obama, you think liberals and the press that have always been in love with Obama would be o.k. with that or you will hear the word racism.
"Even some artists said it was wrong to deliver a surprise political message to an audience member after curtain call. “You don’t single out an audience member and embarrass him from the stage."
Mr. Pence’s “Hamilton†seats were bought, not provided by the production as complimentary seats, according to two people with knowledge of the transaction."
I guess it's a matter of class on how they cast of "Hamilton" chose to handle this situation.
They handled it quite well, and very respectfully. But you can't tell the knuckle-staggers anything if it's not blind obedience to Der Leader and the new regime.
While I'm not demanding an apology, I do have a problem with how the cast used this forum. You go to the theater to see a show, not to be lectured by the show's cast because they have different political views than you. But I have to give it to VP-elect Pence: he is a real class act.
Uh... this isn't the first time, second time or even an unprecedented incident. From Broadway down theatrical productions have stopped shows to interact with audience members and not always in a pleasant or even polite manner like the cast of Hamilton did.
Everyone is acting like this is so shocking and has never happened before. I think many of you should probably look into how often theatrical productions actually do something like this. It's not unusual at all, they won't apologize because they did nothing wrong. Maybe instead of dictating the rules of theater without actually knowing what goes on you should look into it a bit more.
At least the Hamilton Cast didn't refuse Mike Pence service. It's not like he's a gay couple trying to buy a wedding cake in Indiana or anything.
