Obama on Broadway Show, But Shakes Off

Obama has remained relatively low since last month, and he avoided most of the time on Friday night - at least as much as the former president was at Broadway.

 Shortly after the Illuminated Theater in West 42th Street, there was a short flash of a flashlight. Three men quickly retreated from the stage: Mr. Obama; his eldest daughter Maria and Valerie Jarrett, who was the president's senior adviser.

A woman sitting near a small eyelid, but most of the audience in Arthur Miller's "price" of the revival did not realize that they were looking at a Broadway show with a man until recently, the world's most powerful man. The work by Mark Ruffalo, Danny DeVito, Jessica Hecht and Tony Shalhoub is focused on the pursuit of two strange brothers and their reconnection.

"Well, I actually do not know he's lining up," said 37-year-old Laralyn Mowers, who lives in the Queen's Astoria. She sat on the right side of Mr Obama 's five seats and did not realize that he was there until a friend told her at rest. "I have a very bad day, it all changed.

Ms. Mowers said she was really excited when the three came in for the first time. "After the show began, the flashlight and everything came in, who was so rude?" She said.

Obama wears glasses during the show. At some point in the second act, he and his daughter sat in the same position: the right hand pressed their chin, and carefully observed their previous drama. Just before the rest, again in the dark, Mr. Obama, his daughter and Ms. Jarrett greeted in the background and took pictures with the crew. Once again, most people do not know his presence.

After the match, Barack Obama and Ms. Jarrett joined the crowd in a standing applause of the actors, most visible, they had been all night. A few minutes later they were gone. See the former president of the audience heard surprised, he was there.

Since President Trump took office, Obama did not see much of the time. After leaving office, Obama and Michelle Obama should be invited by the founder of the Virgin Group Richard Branson to the British Virgin Islands. Mr. Branson invited him to a kite surfing game. Mr. Obama won.

A smiling Obama kite surfing and wearing a picture of his baseball cap on the Internet and set off a joke on the late night comedy show. A common clue: did he come back? Mrs. Obama was found in the Daily Mail today to hold a spin cycle in Washington this week. On Thursday night, the former president was found in New York City's Little Italy to leave a restaurant with Maria.

Obama has shown her favorite for Broadway. In 2009, Mr Obama took Mrs. Obama out of Washington to attend a Saturday dinner and a drama date to accept "Joe Turner's coming and going". Five years later, Obama participated in the "sun raisins" performance, starring Denzel Washington.

Mr. Obama took two daughters to see the 2015 "Hamilton" performance. Last March, he brought "Hamilton" actors to the White House and conducted a workshop with high school students. In November, Mr. Obama appeared in a Democrat's fundraiser, featuring musical performances.

Of course, Obama is not alone in the politicians who are on Broadway.

Hillary Clinton has been found in Broadway's four performances since November's failure and has been welcomed.

In a series that was widely watched, Mike Pence, then vice president, received a brief statement by an actor after seeing Hamilton in November. Mr. Trump helped the Broadway play in 20s and said he was a fan of composer Andrew Lloyd Weber.

During the implementation of the "price" on Friday, Mr. DeVito's role, a furniture dealer, on the federal government's unreliable line, got the biggest laughter. Obama sat in front of the stone.

"He said he was happy when he was not in the office, Mr. Ruffalo said in an interview.
