HAMILTON's Lin-Manuel Miranda turned to Twitter last night to make it clear that while he and his fellow cast members are pouring their hearts out on stage every night, they are also well aware of rude behaviors among a handful of audience members.

The musical's star and creator posted a series of tweets calling out "illegal photographers" in the orchestra section of the Richard Rodgers Theatre and explained how he reports them to the stage manager offstage who then has an usher approach the offenders and make them delete their photos. Check out the tweets below:

Our illegal photographers tonight: white guy black cap, 3 rows back, 3 seats in.

Older woman 9 rows back, 7 seats in.

We. Can. See. You. - Lin-Manuel Miranda (@Lin_Manuel) May 11, 2016

They're that specific because I report them to SM offstage. Then an usher comes to make them erase their pics. https://t.co/K3wXY98mek - Lin-Manuel Miranda (@Lin_Manuel) May 11, 2016
