Greater Manchester Police are investigating after a fight broke out at a theatre production of Hamilton in Manchester on Friday.
Officers were called to an altercation between a man and a woman, both audience members, during the performance on the evening of November 24th.
Police said no arrests have been made.
The incident comes just days after the hit musical opened at Manchester’s Palace Theatre, kicking off a hugely anticipated nationwide tour.

A spokesperson for Greater Manchester police said: “Officers were called to Oxford Street in the city centre at about 10.30pm on Friday November 24th, 2023, to a report of an assault.
“An investigation is ongoing at this time with no arrests made. Thankfully, injuries sustained are not believed to be life-threatening.”
Officers were called to the same theatre back in April after rowdy audience members refused to remain seated and continued to sing loudly during a performance of The Bodyguard.
The Bodyguard was halted while the audience members were ‘forcibly removed’.
