The audience in the Broadway theater were on their feet in rapturous applause, but the show hadn’t even started.
They stood up to welcome President Obama and his two daughters as they entered the Richard Rodgers theater to watch the musical Hamilton – bringing the curtain down on their whistle-stop tour of New York.
The Commander-in-chief, a well known fan of theater, guided Malia, 17, and Sasha, 14, to their seats as the excited crowd took pictures on their cellphones.
The President sat in his seat while wearing reading glasses as his two daughters sat in the row in front of him with other guests and family.
He even smiled and waved to the crowd in a moment of thanks for them clapping for him. He then sat and watched the nearly three-hour hip hop based show before heading back to his waiting aircraft at JFK International Airport
His two girls enjoyed a rare trip alone with their father, having taken a number of vacations to China and Europe with First Lady Michelle.
