Rich Scherr is a contributing sportswriter for The Baltimore Sun. He told the newspaper that a man seated in the balcony of the Hippodrome Theatre on Wednesday night began shouting “Heil Hitler, Heil Trump” during intermission.
Scherr says people started running and he was “waiting to hear a gunshot.” But the man was escorted out and the show continued. Scherr uploaded video of the aftermath showing the audience reaction.
“Fiddler on the Roof” is based on a Yiddish story and tells the story of a Jewish family persecuted in tsarist Russia.
The newspaper couldn’t reach a spokesman for the Hippodrome, and the report didn’t have comment from police.
What kind if nonsense is this now
What was Sloppy Steve Bannon doing at Fiddler? Maybe selling MAGA hats to alt-yidden trumpf supporters in the crowd.
Another Trump loving nazi, why are yidden surprised? Oh yeah I forget, he moved the embassy to Yerushalyim. All is forgiven.
There seems to be no end to this plague of verbal hate.

“Late Thursday, the Baltimore police identified the man as Anthony M. Derlunas II, 58. According to the police report, Mr. Derlunas said he had been “drinking heavily throughout the night.” He told officers he yelled the slogans because the final scene before intermission reminded him of his hatred for President Trump. According to the officer, Mr. Derlunas went on to say that the anger directed at him after his disruption was an indication of a high number of Mr. Trump’s supporters in the theater. Mr. Derlunas could not be reached for comment.”
