This is my opinion on the Hamilton issue:

Oh . . . so now the anti-safe space right wants a safe space for Mr. Pence? I kid, partially.
I might agree a bit with that article if Mr. Pence said something to the extent of: I thank the cast for their opinion, but I went there for a show. Please call my office at XYZ, and I will discuss their concerns.
But, nope, Mr. Pence had Mr. Trump overreact, fight his made-up battles, and demand an apology from a polite cast member (he even asked the audience to not boo). The cast member was respectful and chose to address Mr. Pence as he is allowed to (and arguably encouraged to do so as it was a peaceful address from a constituent - Pence is going to be VP for all Americans).
So, if actors can't voice their opinions because you/your article wants a safe space in theatre and from "those people", who can voice concerns to politicians?

Pence says the boos and cast member's address are "what freedom sound like." And he said he wasn't offended. Maybe his boss can learn from him. (Edited to add this last part)
