**SNIP**
After more than a year of planning by university administration, students and show producers, “Hamilton” announced on Dec. 21 — less than a month before opening night — that it was relocating the production to Centro de Bellas Artes Luis A. Ferré, the cultural center about five miles away, to avoid the threat of union unrest and campus protests over rising fees. On Dec. 27, crews came to remove the sets that had been in place for much of the month. Three days later, all that remained were the light post banners proudly trumpeting a show that no longer was coming.
“We have a breakdown,” Barrios says, describing the collective reaction to a move that left many at Teatro UPR reeling. “It was a very hard time. Some people cried. Some people don’t believe it.”
After all, Miranda announced mere weeks after Hurricane Maria that he intended to bring “Hamilton” to Teatro UPR. Ultimately $1 million was pledged to rebuild the theater, which suffered massive damage in the storm.

I hope PR doesn’t capsize like Guam. Scary stuff...
..union unrest in PR is the reason emergency water and supplies were left
on the docks during the hurricane.
The demonrat officials made sure they blamed DJT.
Why do they still have blue tarps up this long after a hurricane?
ALL DEMOCRATS! STUPID and LAZY!
They had a massive hurricane.....
....Florida had 4 medium to big ones in one year......2004
We had blue tarps everywhere and it took a long time to fix all those roofs
LOL!
So, let me get this straight, this Dude, Miranda, caved to the unions, who threatened to boycott if the musical was not run by the union?
The damned collective never reacts as it should.
Why are they not hiring Latino actresses and actors for Hamilton since they are in PR. The show since it is a wishful fantasy about Hamilton being black, why not change the ethnicity where ever it is playing except for white because that would be untruthful and racist
Unfortunately it’s the new norm. Where there is no money the blue tarp stays or if money received it is used for something else.
Am I the only person in the world who didn’t like “Hamilton?”
Really, all those Left-wingers concentrated on that beach ? It could tip over: ask Hank Johnson (grin)
WHY ISN’T THE PLAY ‘HAMILTON’ CULTURAL APPROPRIATION???
What did they do with the billions that have already been sent. One of the first things they should have done is take care of the people. I know they spent a fortune trying to get the electric up, but how much would it cost to get enough material to cover roofs.
I haven’t seen it. You can’t complain about cultural appropriation, then rap your way through my history. I just choose to not participate.
That being said, I hope some of the younger folks learned some modicum of history from it. They certainly weren’t taught much about it in school.

It’s good to read a nice heartwarming story such as this on FR every once and a while.
The move was logical. They did it “to avoid the threat of union unrest and campus protests over rising fees.”
If the Teatro UPR hadn’t self-sabotaged, the show would have taken place at their theater.
