Hamilton was scheduled for a string of shows at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC next year

The hit Broadway musical Hamilton has cancelled plans to stage an eight-week run at the Kennedy Center next year, amid US president Donald Trump’s takeover of the national performing arts centre.

Jeffrey Seller, the producer of Hamilton, wrote on the play’s official Instagram that political debate and disagreement are “vital expressions of democracy,” but that the Kennedy Center should be “protected from politics”.

“However,” Seller continued. “In recent weeks we have sadly seen decades of Kennedy Center neutrality be destroyed.

“The recent purge by the Trump Administration of both professional staff and performing arts events at or originally produced by the Kennedy Center flies in the face of everything this national cultural centre represents.”
