Michael Moore has arguably performed one of the most genuinely immersive pieces of theatre in recent history. Immersive theatre is defined as a piece of artwork which transcends and disrupts the barrier between the performer and the audience and the Oscar-winning director did just that.

Moore, who predicted Donald Trump would become US President in July of last year and has emerged as one of his most vociferous critics since, stopped his Broadway performance on Tuesday night an hour and a half in to lead the entire audience to Trump Tower to protest against the president.

Fittingly, President Trump is the target of Moore’s one-man show The Terms of My Surrender.

Outside the Broadway theatre sat two double-decker buses waiting to transport the theatre-goers to the 58-story skyscraper on Fifth Avenue in midtown Manhattan where a protest was taking place on President Trump’s very doorstep.

The production even supplied their very own protest signs which included an array of serious messages such as “resist” and gags taking aim at the president such as “We shall overcomb”.

The theatre-goers made the 12-block trip to Trump Tower just hours after Mr Trump prompted outrage for his press conference responding to the Charlottesville violence in the lobby of Trump Tower.

Addressing the clashes which erupted in the Virginia city over the weekend, the president drew a moral equivalence between white supremacists and anti-fascists, saying counter-protesters were as violent as the KKK and neo-Nazi protesters and the "alt-right" groups included some "very fine" people.

He told reporters: “I’m not putting anybody on a moral plane. You had a group on one side and group on the other and they came at each other with clubs – there is another side, you can call them the left, that came violently attacking the other group. You had people that were very fine people on both sides.”

He added: “Not all those people were neo-Nazis, not all those people were white supremacists. Many of those people were there to protest the taking down of the statue of Robert E Lee. So this week, it is Robert E Lee. I noticed that Stonewall Jackson is coming down. I wonder, is it George Washington next week? And is it Thomas Jefferson the week after? You know, you really do have to ask yourself, where does it stop?”

He even managed to plug his winery during the extraordinary conference which has been dubbed his most jaw-dropping yet.
