A Trump supporter disrupted a performance of A Bronx Tale on Saturday by standing up during curtain call and holding up a "Keep America Great" flag, according to the New York Post. The action seemed to be in direct response to Robert De Niro, the musical's director, who repeated 'F---k Trump' on the Tony Awards last weekend.

The protestor was escorted out of the theatre shortly after the outburst.

Audience member Joe Del Vicario tweeted an image of the flag, along with a message: "It's sad that people can't enjoy a beautiful show and embrace its unifying message without politicizing it."

The times we live in. At the end of A Bronx Tale, a man turned around and faced the audience to show us how big of a pair he has. He was escorted shortly after.

Brian Strumwasser, a hair department supervisor at A Bronx Tale, also voiced his opinion on social media. He took to Instagram to give his thoughts, stating, "If @realdonaldtrump wants to visit @bronxtalemusical maybe he himself will learn what racism is and how we deal with it."
